The 2010 Bright Paragliding Open is over for another year. A huge thank you to all the pilots who came and made the event a great success. Although the week had some bad weather, we flew 4 tasks out of 7 days and had a third of the field or more in goal on 3 tasks. While we didn't see huge cloudbases the conditions were still great for racing, testing the pilots patience more than their ability to fly fast. For results please go here.
I would like to thank all our sponsors for their support during the week with day prizes and events:
