Paragliding Competition Calendar 2010




Summer is just about to start and also the competition season in Europe. this year my calendar seems quite promising, starting with the first leg of the British Open in Slovenia from the 5th to the 11th of june.


In july 10th to 17th I'm going to the Pre World Championship in Piedrahita (Spain) a well known place for massive tasks, fast flying and long XCs.


From 21 to 25 of august, I'm going to participate in the french junior paragliding open only for pilots aged 21 or below . Is going to be very interesting to race against fresh young pilots and not the usual middle aged guys !!.


And last but no least from august 28th to september 4th the second leg of the British Open will be in the town of St Andre in France. the 150 places have been taken about 4 months before the comp starts and the pilot list is packed with legendary names such as Luc Arnant, Russ Odgen, Nevil Hulett, Mark Watts and many more. will be really fun to race in strong conditions against many european legends .


I am also looking foward to the PWC Rolda in january 2011. I have flown Rolda many times in the past and i would say that has a lot of potential for a World class competition due to its weather, wide valley, roads , towns and people, also the organizers are making a huge effort to make PWC rolda a unforgettable competition.
