It's here, LA 1st ever XC Junior World Championship that started today in Tolmin, Slovenia (Kobal if you want). The place, known for its favorable terrain for long slopes, beautiful nature and popular with Czech pilots, will become a refuge for 12 pilots for the next 78 days, of which 5 are Czech. How many pilots out of 78, who were sent by their unions and states, will be at the start of the first task, we will see in two or three days (depending on the weather).
FAI 1 races are a little different from FAI 2 races. Stricter rules, stricter conditions, it is advisable to have a TM (Teamleader) in place, who already has experience with FAI 1 races. In our case, the TM of our expedition is 22 years old Jonáš Horáček, an excellent leading Czech pilot.
S Jonášem four more pilots were sent to the races and we dare to say that none of them is just going for numbers, but all of them will try for the best possible placing both individually and as a team. Get into the car JonášOndra Pohořelský, Vítek Śantrůček and Kvido and Hugo Hadaš joined tonight. And with them also 4 bikes, acro wings, speed fly, swimsuits, party games, work computer, Czech flag, national jersey and undoubtedly a lot of books.
It was necessary to visit the registration room by 16:00, which was done perfectly. All our pilots received a registration card, a tri-shirt, a backpack, a pizza, a promise of random checks of the technical condition of the wings and the weight of the pilot.
Among the pilots, there are those who could have a problem with their musculature, especially if they lose movement over the next two days, as the organizers of the race today decided to cancel the planned evening parade and tomorrow's practice, due to the expected rain. However, as you can see from the registration photos of our pilots, the rain did not appear and they have sun in Tolmin. TM has its members under control and its physical activity is planned down to the last detail. We believe that our pilots will be completely fit for their wings on the day of the start of the race.
After registration, the pilots attended a safety briefing, they learned that the teams will be composed of 3+1 pilots (3 men and 1 woman or 3 women and 1 man). So in our case it will be 3 + 0, and which 3 out of 5 it will be, we will inform you as soon as TM publishes the official composition of the team.
Tomorrow, due to the canceled official training, we don't have much to report from the venue of the WC, so look forward to getting to know our pilots more closely, so that you will be completely up-to-date on Tuesday, when the first task will take place (weather permitting).

At 10:00, the TL briefing is over and it is decided to go to Lijak again. Follow the live track. We will bring good bits from today's events on the association's FB page and on IG , and in the evening we will add an overall assessment of the day in the report to this page.
Fingers crossed guys!
ask CANCELED! The guys have to wait until two at the start, unfortunately the cars are locked, it's raining a lot everywhere, especially on their wings. The more mobile teams have their cars right at the start and the pilots and wings in the dry, the other countries let the feeling of doom wash over them and look out for the hidden pickup truck drivers
