Another hour of daylight would have seen the competition completed. There were a lot of high winds and high scores coming in. Connextion pulled two 14's and a 13 so far but equally scored a 6** on round 6. The Intermediate 8-way class will have their silver medal decided tomorrow with round 8 as they are within a point of each other.

The Artistics are almost complete with only the Skysurf and Freestyle to finish off. Speed has seen a welcome return with 4 competitors. One of the competitors Matt Orieden decided to appear in a full pvc black gimp suit complete with mask. The jury is out if this suit belongs to him or was hired. Either way, photos will arrive soon!

Lift off starts again tomorrow at 10:30.

Jumping has started again today with many rounds still to complete. The 8-way Intermediate category is being fiercely fought by all the teams who have the potential to win, so the scores are close together.
