The forecast already indicated a weak soaring day, with limited thermal development and only marginal prospects for cross-country flying. Light winds and stable conditions suggested that organizing a fair racing task would be challenging.

After several postponed launches and careful evaluation, the organizers decided to cancel the competition day, as the conditions did not allow for a fair task.

Once the decision was made, some pilots still took the opportunity to go flying. Weak thermals offered gentle climbs, and in places it was possible to connect to light wave, allowing for relaxed local soaring. While no racing took place, the sky still delivered a few enjoyable moments.

Attention now turns to the next days, with hopes for stronger lift and more dynamic conditions suitable for competition flying.
