Olympic gymnastics champion Nikita Nagorny is ready to participate in the Ageev Brothers Cup and Olympic champions Yuri Postrigai and Alexander Dyachenko in kayaking and canoeing (AAACUP), Yuri Postrigai told .
The competitions will be held on the Moscow Rowing Channel from August 25 to 28. Earlier, the Ageev Brothers Cup organizers told that they intend to invite Olympic figure skating medalist Alexander Trusova to take part in the tournament. Three-time Olympic cross-country skiing champion Alexander Bolshunov also plans to compete.
– And Alexander Trusova, and in general, it is far from all the athletes we invite. I also spoke with Nikita Nagorny about participating in our Cup. He told me he was okay with everything. Just give him an oar, and he’ll bury it right away, I think. In general, we invite a large number of top athletes from different sports to try rowing and make it a real vacation, to do such a friendly run.
The idea is as follows: the arrival of four-legged kayaks. The crew includes two professional rowers and two athletes from other sports. And both boys and girls. The expected distance is 200 meters. We hope everything will work out. I also spoke with Sasha Bolshunov, we are waiting for her. He has already tried his hand at rowing twice, Poststrigay told .
