Italian Comp?

Recommended Posts

I am not sure if this is what you are looking for, there was competition at the beginning of May.
Results were posted on FB.

ANIMAL HOUSE GPS RACE ECCO IL PODIO WINGSUIT DISTANCE
1) SILVESTRI 3167 mt (Vampire4)
2) BOOLE 2922 mt (Xbird) 2)
3) FONTANESI 2167mt (Vampire3)

...and I found some post on italian forum - http://www.paracadutismoitalia.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1379&start=60

The graphs for the comp make interesting viewing.

It looks like there wasn't an opportunity to build up speed in a long dive before the competition window like in some of the other comps. Was this intentional?

Tail winds aside, some of the other tracks on the website are ridiculous. The top 4 results in the distance challenge have 1,800ft + of diving just to get a huge G\R spike (> 4:1) in the competition window.

I assume this is not against the rules, but as some people entering don't have the extra altitude to burn it makes the comparisons unfair.

Interesting. I hadn't heard about this one at all.
Question: Anybody know if they're still planning to hold Wings over Gransee? I had been considering competing.
