What magic do the JS3 and Ventus 3 have that the ASG-29 Does not?

After the definitive spanking these two new models gave to the previously dominant ASG-29,
there has to be a superiority. So, what is it?

(And yes, the pilot matters...but look at the results in 18m Worlds competition)

Nut behind the stick?
Weather that prefers one speed range over another?

Toss a coin.

Lets face it ASG29's are as obsolete as Wind Jammers. I expect to see these at Vintage Regatta's soon.

Lotsa good nuts behind all the sticks there....
....Still, ASG-29 didn't even show.

Hmmm....ASG-29 windjammer cruises?

Those guys did so well with the V3s and JS-3s because Kawa wasn’t in that class......flying anything.

I can hear the rapid hand rubbing of many sale guys saying, "we did well, sales will spike!".

Likely 95% is the nut begind the stick. But a sales guy is banking on, "so and so did well as others, this is the poop, go buy one, we'll make a deal.....".
It is still mostly the nut behind the stick.

For Kawa and others, no, I do not consider you nuts.....it's a euphemism.

Heck, in the western US, maybe fly with Ramy and beat him many days, then decide.
US east coast, go beat Karl or SM on ridges....along with others.

No, not slighting anyone, but go beat good in your region all the time, THEN compare ships.
I have beaten some good in the east a day or two, never a contest.

If you're in the 95% or so of your nation for national tanking, yep, maybe the ship matters.

Better yet, go fly a club class nationals and tromp, then ask about ships for other classes.

Harsh?
Likely.
Realistic?
Likely.

Yep n go fly the 1-26 nationals, that will tell you if its the ship or the "nut" behind the stick.

Minor tweaks to the incidence distribution.

Wow, thanks Bob. Finally a real answer.
Was beginning to feel like I was on "The View" or something.

Surprising that what must be be a slight improvement in glide, or climb or whatever would translate to such a dominance at the top level.

Now I'll go fly my beater until I am worthy.

I feel really sorry for all the people out there stuck with obsolete ASG29s. I'd love to help all of you somehow, but I'm afraid I can help only one .. so .. the first ASG29 owner to contact me from this post .. I'll take it off your hands for $10k.
