On the plateau, the wind can build without warning and an overpowered kite can lift you or drag you across hard, icy snow. A dislocated shoulder, a broken wrist or cracked ribs are handled by medical cover up to €150,000 for treatment, hospital stays and surgery.
A 20 km loop on a roadless plateau quickly takes you far from any first-aid post. Injured riders are often picked up by snowmobile or helicopter. Assistance and repatriation at actual cost cover that evacuation, the transfer to hospital and your journey back home.
The Ragnarok has a start, timed laps and a ranking, which makes it an official competition, something many policies exclude. The Competition option covers you over these five laps, then for the other official races in your season, on snow or on water.
A gust that lifts you and drops you from several metres can cause a spinal fracture or a head injury with lasting effects. In the event of permanent disability, a lump sum of up to €200,000 helps you adapt your home, your work and your daily routine.
On the Hardangervidda, April weather turns fast. A whiteout flattens the terrain, the wind can strengthen sharply within minutes, and the cold numbs the hands on the bar. Amateurs get caught out by a kite that is too big, fatigue they fail to manage on the fourth lap, or frostbite they ignore.
The rest of the year, you ride on water in summer and on snow in winter, often far from any supervision. Kitesurf insurance covers you in training and in competition, in Norway, at home or abroad, whatever your country of residence, from your local spot to a long winter crossing.
The Red Bull Ragnarok is held in April from Haugastøl, on the Hardangervidda plateau in Norway. Around 350 kiters, amateurs and experts alike, cover close to 100 km in five 20 km laps, in the wind and cold of a spring that still feels like winter.
Running a lap-based kite race, on snow or on water? We insure all your participants under a single policy. Medical assistance can be reached day and night during the event, and repatriation is included, anywhere in the world. We can also become a partner or sponsor of your race.
Wherever you are on the loop, your medical costs are covered and assistance arranges your evacuation, by snowmobile or helicopter if needed, followed by repatriation. Distance from the start makes no difference to your benefits.
No. AxeoSport is not cancellation insurance, so your entry, travel tickets and accommodation in Haugastøl are not refunded. The policy only steps in after a bodily injury, for treatment, assistance and the disability lump sum.
Yes. Cover applies to training as well as racing. Days spent riding on the plateau before the start, tuning your gear and testing conditions, get the same benefits as the five timed laps.
No, the next edition is to be confirmed. The Ragnarok usually takes place in April, while the plateau is still deep in snow. You can take out cover once the date is published and your entry is confirmed.
The price depends on your profile and the cover you choose, including the Competition option. An online quote gives you your price in a few minutes, with no commitment, before you sign up.
