I assume that they do not have any chances to qualify for Paris as thex have not enough tournaments, correct?
Are they eligible for the Continental Cup Final?

Yup and yup.

 Hüberli/Brunner win gold at the Tepic Elite16! 

 

Very emotional win for them, as it’s a first ever gold medal on the Beach Pro Tour! (and a first ever Elite16 gold medal for Switzerland)

Tepic Elite16 | Tepic, Mexico 

 

Women’s Tournament

Gold-  Tanja Hüberli/Nina Brunner

Silver-  Katja Stam/Raïsa Schoon

@Jinzha

Bronze-  Barbara Seixas/Carol Salgado

 

First Elite16 gold for Hüberli/Brunner!

 

Men’s Tournament

Gold-  David Åhman/Jonatan Hellvig

Silver- André Stein/George Wanderley

Bronze-  Noslen Diaz/Jorge Alayo

 

With their gold today, Åhman/Hellvig have won the first two Elite16’s of the season! Right now the clear favourite for gold at Paris. Curious to see what Mol/Sørum can do in late May though, after Anders twisted his leg during training in Tenerife. 

 

Full Results

 

Up next, the  Xiamen Challenge from April 25-28!

 Stam/Schoon always deliver in the early season Mexico Elite 16! Glad to see them on a podium again, hope they can peak in form little later in the season this year.

Xiamen Challenge | Xiamen, Challenge 

 

Women’s Tournament

Gold-  Sandra Ittlinger/Karla Borger

Silver-  Anouk Verge-Depre/Joanna Mader

German #2 race between Ludwig/Lippmann and Ittlinger/Borger is getting interesting. 

 

Men’s Tournament

Gold-  Marco Grimalt/Esteban Grimalt

Silver-  Youssef Krou/Arnaud Gauthier-Rat

Bronze-  Lukas Pfretzschner/Sven Winter

 

Very disappointing result for all of the  teams, with two 9ths (Bansley/Bukovec and Pavan/McBain) and Schachter/Dearing losing both of their matches to finish 21st

Espinho Elite16 | Espinho, Portugal

 

Women’s Tournament

Gold-  Taryn Kloth/Kristen Nuss

Silver-  Tanja Hüberli/Nina Brunner

Bronze-  Katja Stam/Raïsa Schoon

 

Real story here though is the incredibly surprising 4th for  Alvarez/Moreno 

 

With two tournaments left to go in the qualification period (Stare Jablonki Challenge, Ostrava Elite16), Verge-Depre/Mader cut the lead back down to approximately 250 points with their quarterfinal finish (they also beat Esmee/Zoe in qualies)

 

Men’s Tournament

Gold-  David Åhman/Jonothan Hellvig

Silver-  Nils Ehlers/Clemens Wickler

Bronze-  George Wanderley/Andre Stein

 

Ahman/Hellvig are winning gold at Paris. There, I said it.

Up next, the final Challenge of the Olympic qualification period in  Stare Jablonki from May 30- June 2!
