29 WINTER 2025 | June-July-August SKY SAILOR The concept of a paragliding competition for Sport and Fun Class wings is great, well suited for pilots with lower hours who wish to be involved in comps. It is rewarding to see pilots reach goal and this concept makes it achievable b and allows many to reach milestones in their flying career earlier. Next year, I encourage you to put this event on your bucket list. We were lucky to share the hill with a talented photographer – thank you, Heidi. A very big thank you to Janice, Amelie and Erica our Kiwi fluffers and others who tirelessly stood out in the heat to help pilots launch. We appreciate you!
