Two renowned champions will face off from helicopters flying 200-300 feet above the 1-acre field Backgammon board. The players will roll the dice from the helicopters, dropping them onto the field below. The dice, which were specially designed for the event, are composed of an inflatable material that protects them from the world-record-breaking falls. Once the dice have been tossed, the competitors will then communicate via walkie-talkie to their field staff below, who will move the 3-foot diameter checker pieces according to their wishes.
To design and engineer the details of the event, Backgammon Masters worked with world-known pilot Quentin Smith, an explorer who has braved the world's most extreme conditions, including Arctic and dessert climates. Smith's expert advice and input helped to determine the location, regulations and helicopter safety standards of this special event.
The winner of the tournament will get to keep the custom-made dice, valued at 1,000 Euros. The proceeds generated by the tickets sold to the tournament will be donated to charity.
Backgammon Masters is not only a leader in Backgammon, but also offers Poker, 21 Blackjack and Live Customer Support in its all-inclusive Game Lobby.
