Long Mynd - Rock Polishers 2019

Midland, United Kingdom,   8 June 2019 – 9 June 2019

Weekend Rock Polisher Points

After a testing and showery day, where two got round, four landed out, the rest landed back and with everyone safely accounted for, the Rock Polisher Points are awarded as follows:

1. Nympsfield: Novice 3; Inter 4; Pundit 4: TOTAL 11

2=. Aston Down: Novice 4; Inter 0; Pundit 3: TOTAL 7

2=. Long Mynd: Novice 2; Inter 3; Pundit 2: TOTAL 7

4. Shobdon:  Novice 0; Inter 2; Pundit 1: TOTAL 3

Talgarth and Usk: Not competing this year

Notes:
The Aston Down Intermediate had a car problem and was unable to attend - scored zero.
The Shobdon novice had been allowed to take a launch from his home airfield (he was not winch-current). However, as he did not make it to the start line at Long Mynd, he has been scored zero. To do otherwise would set a precedent that could be open to abuse in future, we felt.

The next event is at Nympsfield on 13/14 July
