Podium

On the final day of the 14th Paragliding European Championship in Krushevo, Macedonia (FRY), Honorin Hamard, Seiko Fukuoka Neuville and the French team stood on the highest march of the podium, gold medals around their necks. Laurie Genovese completed the French sweep with a silver medal.

Nine tasks where flown out of 10 possible, with conditions rating from weak to very good. The task committee and meet director always found ways to optimize the weather forecast and to take more than half of the field at goal. On the last task, Honorin, Seiko and Laurie had an overall unbeatable lead. Teams competition was another matter, with Italy, Germany and France within 115 points. The final results stand as bellow.
