Champs of the Past: Peter Vinkler [2009]
The “Gentle Giant”…this is the way some people used to describe him. He has been World and European Champion, and also World and European Record holder about 5 years ago. Now he stopped Finswimming and works as Firefighter in Kaposvar (HU). I’m talking about Peter Vinkler, a very good friend from Hungary!…

Top of the Finswimmers: Petra Hostinska
Twice European Champion in Senior Long Distance. Surely one of the best Long Distance Finswimmers in the World. She is the Czech Petra Hostinska, young, nice, beautiful, and very strong in the water! We hope to see her winning again! But now let’s know her!…
Top of the Finswimmers: Simone Mallegni
Maybe you already saw him long time ago when he was young, but only in the latest years he grew up becoming a Champion. This year in the latest World Championships in Saint Petersburg he won the Gold Medal in the hardest and longest competition: 20000 mt long distance, and we also have to say that he is the first Italian that won this kind of competition at Worls. Congratulations and we hope that you will have a long carieer!!!…

Stefano Figini ricevuto a Palazzo Chigi
Importante appuntamento per il nostro Sport ieri pomeriggio. Il pluricampione del Mondo di Nuoto Pinnato Stefano Figini e il Presidente del settore Carlo Allegrini, accompagnati dall’Addetto Stampa federale Sergio Schiavone sono stati ricevuti a Palazzo Chigi dal Ministro della Gioventù On. Giorgia Meloni. L’incontro, voluto dal Presidente Federale Ugo Claudio Matteoli, ha dato l’opportunità alla FIPSAS di far conoscere la propria realtà sportiva ed agonistica attraverso uno degli atleti italiani più titolati e rappresentativi dello Sport cosiddetto “minore”, ma non per questo meno importante all’interno del CONI. Al Ministro Meloni, l’incontro è servito, invece, per accendere i riflettori della politica e sottolineare gli esempi positivi che, come nel caso del giovane atleta Stefano Figini, possono contribuire a rimarcare che la gioventù italiana di oggi non è poi così “malata” come tanti indicano o fanno credere, e lo Sport è un ottimo modello da tenere in grande considerazione….
