At the end of August 2021, Eva Telenkova first watched aquabike racing from the stands of the Russian Championship in Konakovo. She was a spectator that day, but the experience became the starting point of her own journey in the sport.
First steps on the water
David Aleksandrovich Dzhalagoniya was the first coach to introduce Eva to riding an aquabike. Getting to know the machine revealed another side of the sport: behind the spectacular turns and clouds of spray are control, precision and continual work on technique.
