The task committee originally called a triangle to the north with the first let into the wind. Not everyone necessarily understood that, but it didn't matter because out at the tow paddock the north wind was stronger than expected and they quickly r ...

Day 4 and 5 were cancelled due to bad weather, we had lots of rainfall soaking the ground, and that made conditions a bit slower than previous days. The task was 250km heading west, with 2 turnpoints to keep us out of the worst bush without roads. V ...

Looooong task and a long day overall. They called a 258km task out to the west (toward Hay). The drive along course line takes you through almost nothing, just lots of Australian outback. Drivers were warned at the briefing to fuel up anyplace we sa ...

New Years Day, we set off for Pinnacles National Park . The scenery is fantastic, it's not too far away and with a 3 wheeler it's has some challenges, something I enjoy. It has some interesting geology too. It is half the insides of the Neenach volc ...

Yesterday we had storms and today would have been flyable, but the paddock was too wet to be able to tow us up. So we spent a nice day at the pool. Tomorrow is expected to be a big day.

Yesterday and today were canned because of thunderstorms. All should be back to HOT and normal tomorrow and looks like for the rest of the competition. Meanwhile, here are a few more pictures.

Task 3 brought us the fastest air I've ever flown. 30-40 km/h winds with 4-5 m/s thermals ensured the 192 km task was undercalled. Johnny made goal in 2,5 hours (75 km/h average), I arrived 5 minutes later in 14th place , resulting in 5th overall . ...

We get a rest day today, the weather has turned ugly with a trough and associated thunderstorms passing over us today. It was windy from the morning and building clouds already at 8:30. The dustdevil that tricked me on day 2, this photo is at around ...

What a day!! Seriously under-called task, but 40 very happy pilots at goal yesterday. The cloud streets lined up so perfectly that I couldn't catch them even at 140km/hour on the highway. It was one of those classic Forbes days and it's just a pity ...

Another great day in the sky! We got a 191km task, heading south west with two turnpoints to keep us out of airspace around Temora and West Wyalong. Conditions were windy, and the forecast was for lower base and weaker lift than yesterday. I was one ...

We woke up to blue skies, but quite windy conditions. The forecast was for winds to die down during the day, but strong chance of overdevelopment near Forbes. So the task was set to take us away from the bad weather, 185km. I took the first startgat ...

The gust front we drove home through last night was the widest one I have ever seen - I LOVE the exciting weather in Forbes. It turned the sky (and everything else) a golden brown. We stopped at one point on a eucalyptus lined road to jump out a get ...

The task committee couldn't have created a better task yesterday. RASP predicted thunderstorms in our area and our task slalomed 50 km through the Cu-Nimbs (thunderstorms clouds) into the most perfect soaring skies for the last 100 km. The race went ...

We left Maddy behind with Grandma to go see Lance and his family and play in the snow for a day. The weather forecast wasn't that great but these days opertunities are limited. So we jumped on it :) We went up to Bear Valley, but with the wind only ...

YMCA宿泊の部屋割り変更、キャンセルは本日中で締め切りとします。明日以降はキャンセル料金が発生しますのでごり

Awesome call on both the weather and the task! The forecast called for quite a lot of overdevelopment around the area, especially in Forbes by mid-afternoon. The task committee (Jonny, Atilla and Gerolf) found a narrow corridor to the south (which w ...
