The 2009 Paragliding World Championships are over

9 February, 2009

Today turned out to be exceedingly stable and totally blue, and the 87 km task all around the local area was possibly a bit optimistic. As it turned out there was an accident after a few hours, and the task was stopped/cancelled. This means that yesterdays result is now the official end of the event, with some very very worthy winners called Andi Aebi, Stefan Wyss and Aljaz Valic. I’ll be reporting more when I get home, sort of rounding up the whole event, for now this is the last blog entry from Valle, an amazing event where we have flown more hours in 10 days than I usually fly in a year!

I’m flying home tomorrow morning, will be back on Sunday or Monday,

Best,

Mads Syndergaard
