I agree.

..... snip..... The geezer glide is a fine example of how
dangerous a Finish Gate can be. I have been on the ground unrigging my
glider with guys wizzing over the field from all directions. Also, that
contest is generally flown with short tasks and a lot of gliders finishing
within a few minutes. This years results two destoyed gliders and a
miracle
no one was killed.

These two accidents had absolutely nothing to do with the finish gate. They
both were simply landing accidents. Why do you use non finish gate
accidents to cast a shadow on the finish gate? Do you not have any relevant
info?
