Today we flew another short 62 km task because the organizer Francesco wanted to see many women in goal. As the cloudbase went up to 3000m towards Gubbio, it was a fun race. Natalia won the day with Francoise shortly after, then I arrived as third, Carole 4th, Regina 5th, then Julia from Russia, also Jamie, Christa, Ute and Monique made it to goal in the top half. A good day for team Germany, so we deserve now to cool down after a hot day!Kathleen didnt quite get into the goal radius, she only finished the 2km radius, I dont know exactly what that means in points. Maybe I just managed to catch up today, maybe I still have to work on that one the next couple of tasks ;)
A Japanese pilot won the rigid wing task today, with Primoz Gricar in second.
And big news from the Swift class: The first time that Steve Cox (CH), former paragliding world champion, won ahead of Manfred Ruhmer!

And what is the reaction of Kathleen not getting credit for goal? This type of finish is more commonly used in PG finishes so they don't blow up their glider so close to the ground but I haven't heard of it being used for HGing tasks. Is it necessary (for safety reasons)?
