 You guys are making me feel bad about my recent purchase of a Ventus Ct 🤨 
  
 Ok maybe not. It was significantly less expensive then a Ventus 2 variant.. 
 Plus my understanding is it's roughly 90% the performance of the V2...? 
  
 Anyway I'm happy with it at my skill and experience level.  
 As I have never been in a contest, I am considering MAYBE entering a regional contest or sports class competition this year. 
 
This weekend I saw a Ventus C owned by a visiting pilot that had been refinished in PU at Williams.  It was beautiful, looked like a new glider from the factory.  I am sure that glider has as much fun as any other 15-18 meter glider.  The difference between the generations is a matter of a few turns on course, for all but the very top racers.  Have fun and fly safe.
