The last task of the XXII Hang Gliding World Championships, which
saw the triumph of the Azzurra expedition led by team leader Flavio Tebaldi both
in the individual and team rankings, has just ended.


On the eve of the last task, Italy came from a "control" day, as explained by
Tebaldi himself: "We are excited about the result achieved, it was not at all
easy to place this one-two - it was our team leader. National - The first few
days went just fine and we confiscated important points in view of the final
rush that we knew to be dangerous because the opponents would have become
familiar with the skies of Friuli Venezia Giulia and consequently they would
have given us a hard time. With the advantage accumulated, on Wednesday we
preferred to stay in the group in order not to risk, considering also the
weather conditions and so we managed to impose ourselves with Ploner and Ciech
in general, while in the fundamental team ranking was the contribution of
everyone, including the boys that did not bring points but gave us an immense
hand in terms of communication: victory is also due to them. I allow myself to
make the media aware, because this is an amazing team, perhaps the most medal in
the Italian scene, with ten world titles and six consecutive teams, eight
individuals (if we count the four earned in the rigid wings) and five Europeans:
I believe that these numbers and these guys deserve more respect and
consideration".


Today's last scheduled task saw the riders travel 101 km, launching from Mount
Cuarnan and then landing at the San Mauro airfield in Premariacco, a town near
the enchanting Cividale del Friuli. For statistics lovers, the organizers in
this world have succeeded in proposing three different take-offs and landings,
thus being able to prepare days of competition with the highest competitiveness,
with a weather that has almost always kissed Friuli Venezia Giulia and with a
virtually unanimous consensus regarding the quality of the work performed.


Considering the serious risk of thunderstorms that were spreading from Cadore
towards Carnia with possible involvement of the high Friuli plain even before
evening (among other things with winds coming from different directions), the
day's buoys were placed towards Spilimbergo, Cividale del Friuli and Osoppo,
with a final landing as mentioned in Premariacco. Immediately after the start, a
group of pilots preferred to go into the mountains to avoid being in trouble
then; a second one instead, has taken the shortest and fastest way on the plain,
going however in difficulty after a few kilometers. Finally, a handful of
deltaplanists have decided to take advantage of the second start gate and we
talk about the Italians Selenati and Ciech, Majors (USA) and Oliveira (BRA):
risky decision considering the day but by real bold, hoping to be able to repeat
what happened in task 5 with the victory of John Simon (USA), which took place
using this tactic.


After just over 30' of the
race, the task immediately made it clear to everyone that it would not be a
final catwalk, with several pilots closing their world prematurely and among
them also the Colombian fort Velez, landed while he was in sixth position. The
leaders of the day, flying at a very good altitude above 1600m on average, was
formed among others by Smith, Ruhmer, Peter Neuenschwander, Doenhuber and Gricar
(with Germany therefore in full fight for the podium), with the Swiss who in
short he managed to amplify his advantage over his pursuers proceeding at a
rapid pace. Ruhmer found himself in difficulty at an altitude of 400m, finding a
thermal not easy to turn and being thus forced to a rather long stop. For Italy,
Ciech and Ploner preferred the risk share in the early stages, unlike Kato who
found himself in great difficulty. Good race also for Brazil with Rocha, Sandoli
and Pinto, present in the top ten and decided to take home the silver in the
team standings.


With more than thirty drivers out of goal, the remainder took the leap to shift
their trajectory from the plains to the mountains and someone has even
trespassed into Slovenia desperately searching for thermals near the buoy near
Cividale: Throssell and Mckay have so quickly climbed over all the drivers
further south of them, proceeding more than 70km/h towards Osoppo, with the
leading group led by Neuenschwander (in front practically throughout the race),
Gricar, Doenhuber and Wirdnam. In the meantime, our Ciech and Ploner have come
to light and especially for the Folgaria athlete (among his other victories we
remember eight times Italian champion), the possibility of climbing over to
General Ploner, having exploited the second start window.


At 20km from the finish, Neuenschwander stopped to regain altitude, aware of the
fact that a stop would probably have allowed him to close the goal in first
position and quickly gaining altitude and speed; Gricar tried to close the gap,
thus re-proposing the challenge already experienced at the end of task 9, but
finding Doenhuber with breath on his neck. At 5km from the goal, the Swiss had
to beat around having too low a altitude, with Gricar at his heels with more
than 800m of difference, ready to anticipate him right on top. Neuenschwander
continued undaunted but lowered to 150m at 1.8km from San Mauro, hitting the
last cylinder but landing incredibly: it was the first big error in the
evaluation of the champion that didn't stop him from finishing second anyway.
The task was won by the German Gricar, delayed by a few kilometers, who
succeeded in bringing home heavy points for Germany together with his teammate
Doenhuber. Third is our Ciech, who, starting with the second window, flew very
well, but was unable to overtake his fellow countryman Alessandro Ploner, who
thus took home the third individual world title after those of 2009 and 2011,
with Italy manages to place also the strong Filippo Oppici in the top ten.
