Wessex Competitions 2008 Results
The results below are taken straight from the National XC tables except for any flight that happens to infringe our only extra rule that coastal ridge runs are excluded (none did in 2008).
PARAGLIDING
1. Wessex XC League: The total distance of the 6 longest flights entered in the Club XC League, i.e. flights from Wessex sites only.
Martin Foley 190.0km, Adrian Coombe 90.4km, Ali Florence 88.3km
2. Go-for-It League: The total distance of the 6 longest flights entered in the National XC League.
Richard Westgate 606.7km (1st), Martin Foley 201.0km (41st), Sean Staines
103.1km (87th)
3. Longest flight in the Wessex area: The longest single flight in the Club XC League.
Martin Foley 89.4km
4. Lemmings Trophy: The longest out-&-return or triangle flight in the Club XC League, with each leg at least 2.5km.
No entries.
As a club the Wessex was 6th out of 28, largely due to Richard's phenomenal flying.
HANG GLIDING
Again this year there have been no entries from Wessex members, at least from those whose primary club is listed in the National XC league as the Wessex.
Rob Dowdell, whose primary club is the Joint Services but who is also a Wessex member, finished an impressive 4th in the NXCL.
