4th competition day

Again Kobala Open is offering lots of competition days, so we go on top of Kobala at 10:00, briefing at 12:00 like other days.
Nice flyings to everyone.

We made 142km task. Thermals were strong and in the air was rough. But 14 pilots made goal. We have really good pilots at this competition.  First five pilots in goal were slovenians with Primoz Gricar, Franc Peternel and Peter Kejzar on first three places.
Special congratulation to Christian Preininger that missed goal for less then 6km and landed five minutes before 7pm. Fighting rough conditions for five hours.

Imamo vzhodni veter in gremo spet na Kobalo ob 10:00, sestanek na Kobali je ob 12:00. Lep let in varne pristanke vam zelimo.

Naredili smo 142km disciplino. Termični stebri so bili spet močni, v zraku pa je bilo zelo živahno. Na tekmi imamo zelo dobre pilote, saj je disciplino končalo kar 14 tekmovalcev. Od tega slovenci od prvega do petega mesta. Na čelu z Gričarjem, Peternelom in Kejžarjem.
Čestitke vsem pilotom, posebej pa Christianu Preiningerju, ki je pristal pet minut pred sedmo uro in zgrešil cilj za šest kilometrov. V zraku se je boril kar pet ur.

3rd competition day

Because of possible thunderstorms we will cancel the day. If anyone wants to go up to Kobala for free flight transport up is at 10:00.
Looks like we are having a fun rest day. Cheerse!

Zaradi možnosti neviht ne bomo imeli tekme. Tisti, ki želijo prosto leteti imajo organiziran prevoz na Kobalo ob 10:00.
Izgleda da bomo imeli prost dan. Na zdravje!

2nd task

2nd task is 113 km long with 6 turnpoints, last turnpoint is at goal in Tolmin. Again we have strong south west wind and great thermalling conditions.
We are already waiting for fist pilots in goal. Yesterday Peternel won the day, Primoz was second and Joze Frim third. Unfortunally Tom Weissenberger had problem with his gps.

Again beautiful day in Tolmin

Good morning Kobala Open pilots, lets make another task ... 

First task

We made 112km long task. 44 pilots were flying the competition and  more than 10 people made goal. It was blowing strong west wind that was making hard to turn the fifth turn point. Pilots had Alpine conditions with strong thermals up to 10m/s and they were  reaching up to 2400m.
First that reached goal was Franc Peternel, with Tom Weissenberger, Primoz Gricar and Joze Frim few minutes behind him.
We are just downloading tracks and waiting for the official results.

Our daily scheduale for the whole week will be same as today unless we write differently on the web and on the board infrot our office.
So again tomorrow:
9:00 uploading gliders
10:00 start to Kobala
12:00 briefing at Kobala

Naredili smo 112km dolgo tekmo. Od 44 ih pilotov jih je prislo v cilj vec kot 10 . Pihal je mocan zahodnik, zaradi katerega je bilo tezko doseci peto obratno tocko. Piloti so imeli alpske pogoje z mocnimi dviganji, tudi do 10m/s. Dosegali so visine do 2400m. Prvi je priletel v cilj Franc Peternel s Tomasom Weissenbergerjem, Primozem Gricarjemi in Jozetom Frimom za petami.
Ravno sprejemamo njihove gps instrumente za izracun uradnih rezultatov.
