HLG Fun Comp

A dry evening but a little windy, Bryan and Peter dropped out to leave just three of us.
Chris flew his Simply the Best very well to win three of the tasks and coped well with the wind in spite of flying a light weight model, Chris caught a thermal in the turns task and could of done twenty if he had followed the the lift back till he lost sight of it.
My 21oz  MiniJ coped OK with the wind, I did 71seconds in the time nominated duration task but I only nominated 40 secs.
Mike excelled in the max time in the air task, catching and relaunching his Alula quickly to win the round, towards the end mike was equaling the height me and Chris were getting with the Bungees
