T4 - Where is the Thunderstorm?
Today the task was a 57km One Way Race to the south, almost reaching the border with Greece.
The task setting team said that it was based on the strong nord wind coming in, and the overdevelopment forming pretty soon during the day.
Luckily none of the 2 prognose were absolutely right! There was still some nord wind but not really strong and even the clouds were still pretty beautiful. In the nord some thunderstorms did arrive at the end.
Before the start all the pilots were spread before the SSS line. I saw some pilots in the flats ar the nord climbing and I decided to go there. It was a good strategy! The wind helped a little bit and the climb was good enough to give me height!
The others started a little bit more south in the little mountains over the take-off. Some of them made enough height but others started pretty low.
Magically, even the lowest pilots could manage to climb up again qith really strong thermals! It was indeed a special day!
Staying high was my strategy and that helped me to have somehow almost good and strong climbs.
Let’s hope for another good day tomorrow!
