Really nice competition, one of the best never flown on Condor.
Congratulations to Erik and eventually also others organizers.
Rarely I do many races so conservative like the first three race days , but in the 4th, I had to push a bit more trying to reach the podium..
result: I found myself landing out just after 1st TP.. but a little miracle (well, I'm not a believer, but we was in Xmas Cup!!), between the trees, gave me a chanche to go forward!

Hi Roberto,
unbelivieble rescue in this height, all angels were on your side
I was much higher and feel low.
Thanks for the nice, hard competition. Great fun.

Thanks for the contest, and congratulations to Soenke for some great flying and a deserved win!
I had to give it my all, and take some more risky choices the last day to try to catch up, but it didn't work. Soenke is just too consistently fast

Re: Xmas 2013
Thanks Erik, Miloš and Radek,
Great competition.
(As always on Virtual Soaring)
Congrats to the top three pilots..!
Respect.
This scenery was too difficult for me. Jagged slopes. With wind and sun opposite...
Not knowing if the lift was from ridge or thermal.
And small working heights. Scary as hell sometimes...
But I hope to see you all on the New Year Fivehundreds.
Great competition.

Re: Xmas 2013
Amazing flight Roby! I really liked this competition. Sadly I outlanded on day 1, but it was fun! Big thank you to Erik!
I hope to see you all on New Years Flight. I will have to figure out how to bypass the family dinner, but I will join the flight.
