2nd Woman in Portugese Open




The final day of the comp and we woke up to howling winds at the campsite. The forecast was for it to drop later in the day so we went to the same lower small take off the other side the mountain. It was starting to drop so they ran the task. I wasn't too keen to fly as it looked a bit strong, but the woman who I thought was in second took off and I couldn't afford to have no points compared to minimum distance points. So I set up and took off and flew to the bottom. It had been a bit hit and miss if you got up again so they were allowing people to come back up and try again. It was too late for me to go up and try again, so I wasn't sure what position I'd
come.

We looked at the results later and found that I was second woman, was still 6th in
sports class, and finished 34th overall. :-)
