After the climbing competition, the “briefing” for all team participants (at least for the team leader) will take place in the multi-purpose building in Ginzling at around 7 pm.

Running

On Saturday, 01. June 2019, at about 10.00 am, the runner starts at the festival area (start and finish area) with the time credit, which the climber has done,  at a distance set by the organizer (about 4.5 km Length, 400 Hm) before handing over to his partner, the paraglider pilot.

Flying

This starts at the place specified by the organizer and flies over the Zemmtal valley to the landing field, which is located behind the nature park house in Ginzling. The paraglider pilot then runs into the finish area. Should the weather prevent the paragliding pilots from flying, they will return to the finish area on a route chosen by the organizer.

Following rules are mandatory for the pilots:

  • Attach the start number to the glider in the middle, readable in flight direction and attach the sticker to the helmet.
  • Weight tolerance +/- 3kg
  • Change zone: Pilot has the helmet on and the harness on, the leg loops are closed risers (accelerator) are attached to the carabiners. The paraglider must be stored in a closed backpack.
  • Handover: Walk the corridor towards the launch site marked with barrier tapes No poles
  • Start: the pegged area must be maintained. THE START TAKES PLACE WITHOUT THE INTERVENTION OF A HELPER. Only in the event of a false start or aborted take-off, we will help you according to your call. There are start controllers present which call in case of danger (trailers etc.) according to STOP.
  • Flight:  1 buoy is laid out on the ground. On the ground in Ginzling a white dot is placed behind an obstacle, as soon as the pilot sees it he can turn off in the direction of the landing field. Observer on site who controls with a camera. If the buoy is not passed correctly, the pilot will be fined +3 min.
