Springbock 0 #101 August 18, 2008 I don't get the purpose of getting exact Wind Information. As we are doing our Sport in a natural Environment there will be always a factor of Luck in competitions. That is true for almost all disciplines, ask in the Swoop Forum for example. Martin Take care up there! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This will be much better, than blame or critisize digital logger, computer, software, etc. (or persons, who earn their money with it) We just have to keep on going . . . in aproximately 470.000 years and some small mutations, our descendants will be able to fly eight minutes+ from 10.000 ft. maybe earlier .don´t pester the jester . . or better: WHY SO SERIOUS ? ? www.pralle-zeiten.de Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
