Kiessling and reigning champions are playing their game well at the 32nd FAI World Gliding Championships

The 32nd FAI World Gliding Championships have been characterised so far by the selective and demanding weather conditions of very strong wind and blue thermals.

After a well-deserved rest day and a cancelled day on Sunday, we are getting to the heart of the competition with 6 days still to go.

In the overall score, Mario Kiessling from Germany is the current leader, followed by the reigning Junior Standard Class World Champion Felipe Levin, also from Germany..

In Club Class, the current Junior world champion Tim Kuijpers, from Netherlands, is first in the overall scores and Matias Pasztor, from Hungary, is the leader in World Class.
