Accident at the ⁢2015 World Championships »
At the goal field
Accident
Jamie Shelden|Steve Blenkinsop|World Championships 2015
The British team writes:
All pilots were instructed not to fly to goal due to an accident in the goal field needing a helicopter. However we are now told that the task was not stopped. So pilots ignoring the very effectively distributed instructions not to fly to goal, were able to score more points than those sensibly obeying!
The radio message did not say that this was a temporary thing and when questioned the radio operator told me the task must have been stopped given the instructions he was as giving out. Then I told Wayne the task was stopped. I was wrong to do that. I should have let Wayne interpret this seemingly unambiguous message himself. Prior to that I had texted and tried to call the meet director but got no reply. Probably busy getting that radio message wording 'right' talking to someone else eh? Most pilots had landed at 80-90 k due to conditions. Only the slow pilots or late start and slow (Zac) could be in a position to obey or ignore the instructions given. Only Wayne was still airborne for us. Zac gained a huge and unfair advantage from this. Wayne and others were disadvantaged. Only the team with their team leader in goal could find out the true situation. Now it seems the radio message was completely misleading and it is the wording of that that all the arguments will be about.
However the task was stopped due to an accident in goal after about ten had finished. Christian Vioblet broke his shoulder landing. Steve Blenkinsop was also slightly injured there.
Jamie Shelden writes:
The task wasn't stopped… goal was closed for a few minutes to get the helicopter in and out for Christian, but there was no one anywhere near landing there anyway, so it didn't effect anything.
British Hang Gliding Team writes:
In many ways the organization has been great here. But in many ways it is the most sadly compromised event I have so far witnessed. Due to the way this incident was handled the stop procedure was not correctly followed. Therefore the only thing that can happen if the rules are correctly applied is that the task is zero' d. However the successful publicity side is what is driving everything here so following the rules will be too much of an embarrassment in front of too many people. Unless a team wants so much to be hated that they make a protest.

Larry Bunner writes:
I communicated with Manfred tonight about his decision to go right of course line before heading to the last turnpoint and then goal. He stated that it didn't look good ahead so he flew perpendicular to the course line to climb again in the convergence while the others continued into the wind in worse conditions. He climbed to over 4000 meters before heading out and was able to easily make goal.
The USA hung in there at fourth place three points out of 13,318 ahead of Austria.
UPDATE: Krzysztof GRZYB actually made goal. This hasn't shown up in the scoring so far.

Rumors
(Valle)
Jon "Jonny" Durand jnr|World Championships 2015
The rumors are:
1) LAURENT THEVENOT is rumored to have thrown his chute (Jonny apparently saw it and saw that he was okay) after tumbling.
2) The scores are not correct (how incorrect is not clear to me), which is why they haven't been put on line yet.

Maybe the results: http://www.faihgworldmex.com/results.php
Rudy Gotes wins the first day. Leading points made the difference.
Rudy, Christian, Manfred, Gerd, Seppi, Attila, Suan.
They all started at 2 PM.
Belinda says that this is revenge for all the European competitions where the local pilots know where all the secret sites of lift are. Rudy got twenty leading points on Manfred and Christian and thirty on Gerd. Time and arrival points (and, of course, distance points) very similar.

Tumble confirmed

Jamie Shelden|World Championships 2015
http://naughtylawyertravels.blogspot.mx/
The biggest scare of the day was Laurent Thevenot's tumble near the Pinon right around the time of the first start. He got his chute out and landed with only very minor injuries according to the official reports. We're all happy for that - there's no sweeter pilot out there. What's really strange is that he's flying with a tail, so it's hard to imagine how that could have happened...hoping to hear more details tomorrow.

No delay

Live Tracking: http://www.fastretrieve.com/FAI/liveupdate.html
Organizer's news: http://www.faihgworldmex.com/news_detail.php
A review of the delayed feed was carried out this morning at the team leader briefing. The result is that all data will be live from now on in this competition.
The pilots are now on the way to takeoff and we expect provisional task details quite soon.
Yesterday's practice highlighted a few technical issues, mainly caused by the systems we were using to delay the data. These have now been fixed and we expect today's tracking and scoring to run smoothly. Also there was a problem in the communication of the task details which resulted in an incorrect task being set for a large part of the day - this has been addressed and extra checks have been put in place to prevent a repeat of this problem. The FAI Hang Gliding World Championship 2015 begins today - we hope you enjoy the competition.
