me and my friends were there on sunday at 16:00, only to see a bunch of spectators fight for some goodies that were thrown out of a van and no more swooping, since the competition was allready over so much for the jumping till the sunset

no, we never thought they would wait for a bunch of Slovenian skydivers that drove 2 hours to get there (and it sure ain't easy to find that place)... we ain't that proud... but their website stated that they would jump both days till the sunset... so go figure

well, check it out for yourself: http://www.skyday.net

anyway, we'll for sure go there next year, but a lot earlier then this year

I think Martin (Netherlands) and Wuzi (Austria) were in the top 10 as well. Maybe Pablo (Columbia), too.
And Olaf "Flirre" (Germany) was in the to 13.

I made a bit over 1000 photos of the comp, when I put a selection online, I will post the link :)

Sure was

If Tobi can make 9th place on a canopy he's hardly ever jumped, just think what he's capable of when he's done some serious training on his new Velo.

Congratulations again to all participants. The courses were pretty tough. Everything over water...
Thanks to Michi Palliardi, the organizer and Silvia Wagner, the chief judge for this great competition. Check out www.skyday.net for next dates!

Unutsch: Stubenberg is not a DZ and we were jumping until sunset on saturday and finished the competition. Since you can't really force anybody to jump with wet equipment on a day after a huge party and when everybody has to leave we couldn't find any "swoopers" to jump on sunday. But there were tandems and solos going up with the heli when we left, which was at around 3 pm.

What canopys did use the competitors?

[pinkskyvan 0]

between 74 and 103 sqft
velocity's, xaos,...

[blueshrew 0]

Patrick and Sascha were under Velocity 96
Flirre on Velo 103
Tobi, Bastian and Henny under Velo 90
Soenke under VX 87
Heiko under Velo 79
I think Cathy was under a Xaos27 71 or 72
The first 3 should be obvious.

@pinkskyvan when will the official scoresheets be posted and the site updated etc.?

I know, I know... we were just pissed for being so stupid and not coming earlier even though we were talking about the chance of an early end of the competition... Anyway, see you next year

I have no idea if the website will be updated. Unfortunately the organizer of the event doesn't take so much care about it.
We are trying to find a way to put it online on our website www.freefly.com
There are also some nice pictures under pictures/others-swoop

There are also pictures on http://www.pixum.de/members/alexmaximus/?act=a_view&album=1427797&st=1&sid=r4wz5d70aaa43b4ed80a37f3216a28d6&sid=r4wz5d70aaa43b4ed80a37f3216a28d6
