Wednesday, 9th of July
Even though, since the early morning, the trees were swaying in the strong wind a lot more than yesterday, thanks to a clear blue sky and bright sun it is perceivably warmer and the world in Donovaly is looking more optimistic.
But the optimism is only an illusionary one, and the organisers declare today as a non-racing day at the 10 a.m. briefing. Due to the wind the envisaged move to the small hill with a camber of 70 metres near the village of Ludrová for the planned competition in landing accuracy.

The nature must have gone crazy and it seems as if the strong wind is divining some sort of approaching catastrophe. Plastic bags fly fast and low over the camp, the stored propane-butane bottles fall from the open shelves and some Slovak governing party is said to be attempting to introduce religious tuition into schools in addition to their efforts to ban abortions.
The weather forecast for the coming days is rather varied. Some forecasters claim that it will not be possible to fly due to the strong winds, whereas others claim the reason will be the coming rains. All you need do is take a pick.
