BGD ウェイトレス2020は、2020年1月10日に新しいキュア 2で参加のブルース・ゴールドスミスの総合優勝で幕を閉じました。1週間にわたるコンペティションはコロンビアのロルダニーリョで行われ、良いフライトコンディションと45.8kmから59.8kmの6つのタスクの「素晴らしい」ものでした。 オーガナイザーであるためブルースも2位のスタン・ラジコウスキーも賞品は獲得できませんでしたが「コンペティションで優勝するのは13年ぶり!」とブルースは笑いました。そして、スーパークラス(総合)は、モルドバのセルゲイ・ネベスニーがトップになりました。 MRTの紹介 3回目となるウェイトレスコンペティションの背後にある考え方は、総重量を考慮に入れるスコアリングシステムを開発することでした。パラグライダーコンペティションでは、軽量のパイロットが不利であることは十分に実証されています。 このイベントでは、重量補正の手段として複数の半径のターンポイントを使用しました。...
