COMPETITION
Paragliding World Cup Gemona 2016 : the winners
Jurij VIDIC – Andreas MALECKI – Hernan PITOCCO
Seiko FUKUOKA NAVILLE – Silvia BUZZI FERRARIS – Yvonne DATHE
The 115 competitors who participated at PWC in Gemona, Italy from 4 to 11 June 2016 had not really chance. Indeed, the competition has unfortunately suffered from the bad weather. Fortunately, two tasks were held, minimum conditions required to validate the competition.
The first task was Wednesday, June 8: 88 km with over 50% of pilots reaching the goal. A second task was held the next day but it stopped due to difficult weather conditions. On Friday, June 10, a final task was possible: 68 km with only 30% of pilots reaching the goal.
