Bogong Cup Day 6: cancelled by pilots!

The forecast was for strong winds at our flying levels again, so we postpones briefing to noon. Nevertheless, Davis decided to send us up to Emu. When we arrived, the upper level winds hadn´t started mixing in, so most of us started settung up our gliders.
The wind on take off was off to the right, a slight nw direction mixing in, showing a rotor in our little gap between the gum trees. Rohan wanted to set another task to Khancoban, while Lukas didnt regard these conditions as taskable at all. While the task briefing was hald, strong gusts moved through and the first dust devils started. Im on the safety committee, so I let the other members and Davis know that I regard the conditions as unsafe to fly because the wind was not straight in on take off, there was strong wind and strong turbulence in the air (as reported by Oli from the sail plane and Cameron our wind tech, also we saw lenticular clouds again), and it didn´t look like it would calm down too soon.
No words about cancellation were heard, but when Lukas started packing up his glider, it was a clear sign for other pilots. Jonny hadn´t even started setting up his glider then. Most of us just packed up even before Davis called the day. Pilots sometimes make sensible decisions!
