yesterday (Saturday 15th of May)

All pilots completed a 20th round in medium to strong condition at St
Ferriol. Both groups were flying in sequence on Slope A. Then we had an
interruption to calculate the final team result and the ranking in order
to determine the 20 best pilots to do a fly off of 4 rounds. During this
interruption, a mini contest with the judges and officials has been
organised, with 2 rounds. the pilots wrer judging this time :) !
Marcel Guwang, a Slope director did the best time with a 33.xx

We started the fly off with strong conditions (16 to 20 m/s of wind). It
has been a "rain" of sub 40s, lots of personnal best and a blistering
30,79s for Thibaud Ringenbach (France). IS the ranking didn't change for
the top 3, things moved behind with excellent finish of Lucas Gaubatz
(17 to 9) or Mathieu Mervelet (14 to 8).

Alexis Marechal exploded his Alliaj HM on the ridge (rocks) during the
second round of the fly off. At the 24th round, Thibaud Ringenback had a
2.4 receiver lock for long seconds, but finally recovered despite he got
a zero score plus a penalty for crossing the safety line.

Viking Race finished at 3:30 pm. We all met at St ferriol for the prize
giving and a last drink before to leave.

Viking Race 2010 is over !

Thanks to all the pilots who attended, a huge thanks to the "red"
jackets who did an exceptionnal job during all the week despite
difficult weather conditions.

See you all in 2 years !!!
