The dates for the 5th Ozone Chabre Open friendly paragliding competition have been set, and are 5 – 11 June 2010 with registration open from 17 January 2010.

This friendly, stress-free paragliding cross country competition will be run along similar lines as before: with the emphasis on safe, achievable tasks aimed at competent and experienced pilots not yet established on the competition circuit. Sponsored by Ozone, the event will include briefings, de-briefings, parties and prizes as well as great flying in a fantastic area.

No increase is planned on the 2008 entry fee, which will stay at 220 euros. For those pilots flying Ozone wings, the event’s principal sponsor has kindly offered to subsidise their entry fees by 10%, bringing their costs down to 200 euros.

Entry criteria are still under discussion, and will include an element to encourage teams of mixed ability, female pilots, diversity of nationality, pilots who have missed out previously and pilots who have contributed to past events. Keep checking the website for further information.  The organisers aim to confirm pilot entries before the end of January, and let pilots know as soon as possible whether they have a place.
