That may be true, Evan. But he also said that he would be willing to sit at the start line all day and throw away a potential world championship victory for himself to keep the other person from winning (by following). That is a pretty powerful statement, and to me seems more than just complaining because he is not winning. Hopefully, the weather will let us all see how it plays out. Just my two cents, Steve Leonard Lets all remember one should not measured by what he has said but what he has done. |

Kawa has done plenty of the cat and mouse flying he's complaining about! It's just that he's usually winning. No one complains when they are winning. best, Evan C'mon, Evan, the video "complaint" was made on the day he won the class on the first contest day!..and referred to weather that did not reflect on the pilots skill. He was being humble. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0r1lFIIrUs |

Kawa's earlier WGC video shows that he's being consistent in expressing his dislike for the blue days since it doesn't put the emphasis on individual pilot performance. Just 33 pts off 1st place. (his teammate is in 3rd) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0r1lFIIrUs Kawa has done plenty of the cat and mouse flying he's complaining about! It's just that he's usually winning. No one complains when they are winning. best, Evan his deficit is almost equal to what he lost to Mak on the day he placed 18th. |

There definitely is a point at which the tactical game starts to detract from the soaring game, and it sounds like Mak and Sebastian have reached that point, and that's unfortunate. -Evan |

Getting back to the competition:
@WGC2017 The wind has shifted, and we will re-grid on runway 08. Same grid order. First launch 1300. #wgc2017 ******* Just what the crews needed on the last day after yesterday's mudfest! |
