2026 Canadian National Gliding Competition

Rockton, Kanada,   27. července 2026 – 7. srpna 2026

Wed 5 Aug - Day 8

The forecast showed a chance to get a small task so gridding started at the regular time, with everyone well practised at gridding by this point in the contest.

 

The day was expected to start blue and three sniffers were launched.  One was able to stick while two fell out.  The next three in line were launched and two of those fell out and the final of the first three.  The sniffer who did stick was able to get over 3000 AGL and small cu started to pop.  The task was reduced to 1.5 hrs and the launch started around 1415.  The 18 m gate opened and 1521

 

The cu near the field allowed climbs to about 5200 pre-start and there was a cloud street mostly aligned with the first leg resulting in a drag race into the first area where the sky dried up.  Turning east back to Hagarsville again kept us in the cu, although many of them didn't work!  After Hagarsville it was back west into the blue where some good climbs were found allowing us to complete the task.  Some in 18 m struggled to get the last climb over Brantford and received finish penalties.

 

On 18/20 m Jared Granzow wins the day and Jesse Miller topped the club class.
