Condor Racing
Friday's task saw 9 lining up on the grid at Agathazel in Southern Germany in a variety of LS4a, Standard Cirrus and Pegase on a rerun of the GP2020 Day9 . It was 144kms triangle into Austria with some thermals and ridge running across some tricky terrain.
The first leg needed one good thermal and some ridge hopping to get to the turnpoint in the sink on the wrong side of the valley. The second leg was almost straight crosswind withe some quite good almost continuous ridges but needing a couple of into wind ridge jumps which took some height management. The final leg was downwind across the ridge lines to a straightforward final glide.
Chris, Simon and Mike selected the best route completing in more than 100kph. David, Pete and Geoff found some alternative slower routes while Stewart assisted John B. Well done to John D who had an internet failure early on, but completed the task in stealth mode on his own. Enjoyable run round that took a bit of thinking about. - J&P
