2024-05-26 - EuroPG2024 - Task5 - 73Km - Goal - task summary - Telemetrics

This was the shortest task for the European Championship. The condition was not ideal with stable atmosphere and some Sahara dust in the air blocking some of the insolation and we were already after 4 very intense tasks.
The organization therefore proposed a shorter task in the valley in the north side. Initially the proposed task was of 76km and it was shortened further just before the launch window opened.

10:34 What an elegant centering of the thermal.
Acurately judged the center of it from other pilots and you own input from flying in this genral area.

Thanks! In this kind of competitions I feel it’s actually easier to find the cores as everyone involved is very skilled and very hungry to climb the fastest…

Intense low save before start at 2:52

That's right! Kind of a silly and risky situation to be in. The day was working and I was reasonable confident that there will be lift close to terrain and actually on the left side of the takeoff (right side as I am approaching the mountain side) the terrain is dropping further 100m+ but, when I connect with lift I am already at or below the bomb-out landing zone so, in case I cannot find anything, a perfect flying day is finished even before starting. Luckily it was not the case, that day, and I am hopeful I learned something :).

Thanks for the video.
Could you possibly tell me what devices and apps you use to collect the data and the track record with task points of the racing for TELEMETRICS and how you edit it into the video?

[@cedarsunshine]

I have found tutorial videos...thanks for your inspirational videos.

Great. It's quite easy with dashware. I use a Garmin Fenix for the gps track. I am glad you liked them. Where do you fly usually, where is "the home place"?
