Could you post the stats on the competition. Events, Course Lengths, and Competitor performance. Helps to size up the competition. Times and overall distances.

It's nice to see how the other guys are doing, but comparing what one group of competitors does at one meet compared to a different group is like comparing apples to oranges. Who knows what sort of variable weather conditions exists and density altitude can also NOT be forgotten towards influencing the results. So when you see me do a 2.60 seconds on a 185 foot carving speed course through 10 foot gates, you can't say wow that guy is so much better than some guy from another part of the world who can only muster up 3.5 seconds on a similar course. We jumped in different locations with different WX conditions. Apples and oranges my friend.

Try not to worry about the things you have no control over
