XG practice period

We are one week already in Uvalde.
I did 4 practice flights most of them in very challenging conditions on
the blue. I had opportunity to compare performance of my glider to
others and it looks that there is no difference.
There are very strong teams flying in our class with Australians and
South Africans very well trained like Uvalde weather. Poles and Germans
are very well prepared and will definitely working hard to be on the podium.
Last several days were very hot reaching records temperatures for the
region. We expect to have very good weather for a week but then there
is risk of hurricane reaching Golf of Mexico which can influence very
negatively contest area.
We finished practice period with Pre-Contest party with Texan food and
music.
