The Frans Paradise training group from Lac Bay travelled to Hvide Sande on Denmark's west coast for the IFCA Fin Slalom European Championships, held 6–12 September 2026. Bonaire.Nu reports the three riders came home with four podium places between them after a week of rain and shifting winds.

Arxon finished as the top junior. Bonaire.Nu describes him as European champion in the junior category, while SURF magazine's English report lists him as the event's Best Junior. His coach Taty Frans placed second overall and won the Masters, and training partner Tycho Smits was second in Youth.

It caps a 2026 season in which Arxon stepped up to the U17 division on the PWA Youth World Tour and kept winning.
