I woke up still feeling heach-achy and groggy. By lunch time I was better, so decided to sit in the shade by the pool. After a while Martin D. came by and we had a nice chat and watched the leaders come into goal. It’s the perfect viewing spot, but I have to say I think the huge numbers of Ozone R.10s has spoilt the spectator sport potential of paragliding. When everyone was still on different wings you could tell the individual competitors. Now it’s just a sea of blue or red identical wings, and all the fun is in spotting the R.10 stragglers who arrive after serial wings and then try to land as far away from anyone else to try to hide their embarrassment.
