130 contestants compete in the 28th World Logging Championships.

The World Logging Championships are held every two years. The contestants compete, both as individuals and in national teams, in the following disciplines: Tree felling, Fitting another chain, Bucking with combined cuts, Precision bucking and Limbing.

The 28th championships take place 3–5 October in Tripsdrill, Germany.
130 contestants from 30 nations will participate. As usual, many of them are using chainsaws from Husqvarna.

Over the years Husvarna contestants have won many medals. During the last two championships our contestants took 17 out of 48 medals.

On this blog site we’ll publish daily updates from WLC 2008. Until the championships begin, these pages will be continuously filled with everything you need to know about the World Logging Championships. So, that’s a good reason why you should visit this site soon again.
