IBU has banned the use of fluorine-containing means for skis
The Executive Committee of the International biathlon Union (IBU) announced a ban on the use of fluorine-containing tools for the preparation of skiing starting with the season 2020/2021.
The decision was made in accordance with the rules of the European Union, which will enter into force in July 2020 and are designed to reduce negative human impact on the environment.
Soon IBU will clarify the new rules, including will declare the maximum allowable amount of fluoride in ointments, as well as talk about the verification procedures and sanctions.
We will remind, earlier the Ukrainian team in biathlon finished the first training camp.
