Well done JP, good showing (especially as your more of thrash merchant than a ‘wafter’!).  What are you flying?  

Looks greener down there than last time I was there so I guess they have had plenty of rain this year the same as us.  Say hello to Jacky and Tobias.

All gone wrong today

wind and no lift for me, looking like it’s all over as now it’s raining and wind has changed direction

Danke the team organizers, Jacky KUGLER, Tobias REIK and Judges, for those 3 sunny days! 

And congratulations John for your 4th place and the team trophy, sometimes it needs any more luck but you flew constantly well in all conditions you get, well done.
Below my pictures of each days:

Well  done Dr K for taking the honours, JP for fourth and Daniel for being an all-round hero.

Well Greg I wasn't of any help despite asking Peter for the team. JP and Peter had been doing so well that even I couldn't prevent winning the team trophy.  😶

In Round 1 I had to get used to the course and had two semi cuts. In round 3 I had such good lift that there had been no climb out at all. I flew in light rain in round 4 which wasn't helpful and in round 5 I was in the downdrop of conditions. The wind meter was beeping while getting below 3m/s then stopped for a second to beep again. Only round 2 and 7 had been reasonable.

I share your pain brother Daniel, but sometimes its the presence of the discreet team member that enables the overall performance.

Do not be down hearted, you are a Tea Swiller and the victor of Vogesen - a triumphant performance, despite the adversity!!! 😎👍
