The weekend on Usedom is all about icy beach fun. While the beach chair sprint world championship is a sporty affair, the winter bathing spectacle is ice cold. The world championship title in the beach chair sprint is secured by the team that covers a distance of 20 meters with the beach chair the fastest. Teams of two are required who have enough strength to carry a beach chair weighing around 60 kg over the distance.
