After an accident at the inn – an expert on cardinal errors with a stand-up paddle

Date:

An Unterlander (44) almost paid for his death when he was at the inn with his stand-up paddleboard, the “Krone” reported. A water rescue expert now points to a “deadly trap” linked to the man’s equipment.

On Monday around 7 p.m., a 44-year-old and his son (12) were on the Innschleife in Angath. The father fell off his stand-up paddleboard, which was anchored to the shore with a safety line. This connection became fatal after the man fell off the board. Because it was impossible to get loose and the locals fought for their lives in the waves.

With the help of his son and a witness, he was freed from the cold water. The Kufstein Hospital announced on Tuesday that the 44-year-old had survived the accident “according to the circumstances”.

What should the stand up paddler in Angath keep in mind? For Konrad Kirchebner, spokesman for the water rescue service of Tyrol, this is quite clear in the interview.
