no it is the responsibility if the promoters to remove the crafts from the water, it is clearly stated on redbullcaribbean.com website - how would the competitors/teams remove the crafts themselves, once water logged they would be very heavy.. it is solely the responsibility of redbull and the event promoter to remove all this garbage from the sea.

I just read somewhere that red bull said they would have removed it. So it's not the contestants fault

Does the Red Bull Flugtag team keep the crafts after the competition?
No, the Red Bull Flugtag team will remove the crafts from the event site and take to a location where teams can pick up their craft, or elect to have it thrown out. Red Bull accepts no responsibility for the recovery of any part of the flying machine. Therefore, participants should not use anything they are not prepared to lose. Participants will also have the choice to donate their craft to the Aviation Museum and be part of Trinidad’s flying history.

Flugtag jams routine

July 4, 2011

Traffic woes and massive crowds have over the years become synonymous with the hosting of the Red Bull Flugtag event.


On Sunday thousands of vehicles clogged the Western Main Road as far back as the Beetham Highway as spectators headed towards Williams Bay, Chagua-ramas to witness the competition. More than 100,000 people crowded onto Long Beach's Rainbow Harbour in Miami last year causing a traffic nightmare.


According to information found on the energy drink's website, "The crowd was so enormous that the 710 freeway's exit ramp to the area was closed, all parking garages were at capacity and traffic was gridlocked throughout the downtown area."


In 2006, another Red Bull event scheduled to be held in Longleat, United Kingdom was cancelled after inclement weather and traffic caused serious disruption.


A press release issued by the organsiers of that event said, "It is realised that there was significant traffic disruption on the day which, in conjunction with unseasonable weather, had a serious detrimental effect on people arriving at the event and necessitated the cancellation of the event itself."


According to reports an estimated 100,000 tried to make their way to the annual event in 2006 but many had to battle with massive congestion problems.

it really is sad that the participants LEFT their flying failures IN THE WATER, its LITTERING and polluting!

Shame on those people!
Those people should be ashamed of themselves and should have been MADE to go back and remove what belongs to them to begin with!

a couple teams could get together, hire a boat and remove the debris....

once you putting something non-biodegradable in the water - a conscious citizen would make sure its cleaned up properly or press the organizers to see that its done in a timely manner.....

water under the bridge though as RB said they removing it....

you went 0 to emo there star.....jus trying to look out for our natural resources...best ppl to do that would be trinbagonians....

[Chimera]

I thought that water would come alive and eat the crafts and pilot on impact, fuggin water so nasty


still amazed and ppl staying in that water for freaking HOURS.

why would they hire a boat and remove the debris, if the redbull promoters and event coordinators told them they will be removing it?? no need to lecture me on preserving our natural resources son, i'm up there with the eco-activists, hence me posting the pics, and finding the redbull rep and asking them about the situation.. back from emo to 0 now

not a lecture....good work....

just find it risky relying on someone else to clean up my mess...

[shadowbird]

it was sheit. most of the teams were horrible. traffic was a mess and parking was worse. creativity was lacking. the guys that made the car were the best. most of the intros involved big men play fighting. the judging was also unfair. tribe got a 10 from one judge after they took a whole half hour to flop. the lime on the beach was good but the competition itself was crap

very true it was a very big Lime
