Kryštof Bogar, CZ, has for many years be one of the best czech male MTBO riders and he has at the same time belong to the absolute top MTBO-riders in the world.
Kryštof has taken many championships i CZ and international both individual and relay medals.
Latest at WMTBOC 2021 in Kourtane, Finland i June 2021, Kryštof won the SPRINT and became 3rd on MIDDLE.
In the Czech Republic, the 10th, 11th and 12th rounds of the Czech CUP were held last weekend. In the long distance and sprint, Kryštof Bogar came first, finishing 10th in the middle distance, won by Vojtěch Stránský.
It is not surprising that Kryštof won twice, and not that he did it with style.
Still, his performance this past weekend was a little mroe special than it used to be.

So Kryštof takes full advantage of SIAIR. Whether it’s a world premiere, must be at Honza’s “expense” but it certainly looks nice.
But there is one more detail that connoisseurs of Kryštof will notice in this dynamic photo.
Kryštof now drives Autopilot’s PilotOne, model TB and the new ECB (Elite Carbon Board). And it’s actually a novelty too, and there’s a little special story attached to it.
Kryštof has been driving for many years with a map holder made by his grandfather. A very special homemade model that Kryštof has had a penchant for driving with. Unfortunately, it has been destroyed in a recent crash, which is why Kryštof has been forced to choose a new folder holder.
And it is therefore not unnatural that one of the world’s best MTBOs has chosen one of the world’s best mapholders, namely PilotOne for its new “work tool”.
Below we have found some historical photos of Kryštof with “grandpa’s” homemade mapholder.
