We had twenty pilots flying in the meet. Even with some really bad
weather during the first three days, we still managed to put on six tasks out of
seven flying days. The tasks distances were from 69 to 112 km. We also had seven foreign pilots from France, USA and Ecuador. Actually we had
France's champion: Luis Rizo, a former USA's champion Dustin Martin, and the
Ecuador's champion Raul Guerra. At the end, Luis Rizo dominated the results, followed by James Stinnet (possible
member of the US National Team), and then Dustin Martin. With all high end level pilots, I conformed myself with fourth place, but had
the luxury of winning two tasks. The final results and every task results can be found
here. Some insight in Spanish, and some pictures can be found on my personal blog
http://danielvelezbravo.wordpress.com. There are definitely a lot of happy US pilots down here, and with luck they will
be coming back next year. If any of you still wants to taste the flying around Colombia, the Hang Gliding
Nationals and Open Hang Gliding Championship are on August, and there's another
FAI 2 event during June.
