The Swiss PG Championship 2016 has come to an end, in Disentis, Graubünden.

After four valid tasks, Stefan Wyss took top honors once again, receiving the winning trophy for fifth time! Stefan flew his Enzo 2, which he describes as the best comp wing he has ever had. Five national titles would be impressive (and probably a record) in any country but doing this in Switzerland, which is one of the most hotly contested national comps in the world, is truly incredible!
Michael Maurer took second Place and Stephan Morgenthaler third, also flying his Enzo 2.

Congrats to all the pilots and cheers from all the team at OZONE!

Just before the first turn point I could now see a sea breeze convergence setting up on the south coast around Exeter and from a phone call I knew other pilots were closing in FAST. TP 1 to TP2 was really a non-event, flying easily through some very nice thermals. Every time I hit a good thermal I had …read more
