Hi Chris

I  thought you might be interested...

We're just getting ready to announce all the details of next year's GIN Wide Open.

Saint Jean Montclar  (French Alps)

18-25 June 2016

 

The Venue

We've chosen Saint Jean Montclar for its reliable weather. It's particularly sheltered from the Mistral which can plague flying sites like Laragne further west.   From campsite to appartments everything is also very centrally located.   I met the mayor of Saint Jean earlier in the summer.  He is very keen to welcome us and we've even organised for the chairlift to be opened especially for us - yes - whisked from the village centre up to launch with our own private chairlift!

The flying has a great mix of big mountain flying behind launch and more open terrain out front with lots of land-out options.  No marquee this year: we've got a big indoor hall more than big enough for presentations and more.

Registration

Registration will open on 26 December as every year, but there'll be a big difference this time:  no more unfair advantage to the high speed internet surfers.  Because our servers were pretty much overloaded with the competition filling within an hour last year, we've decided to give everyone as fair a chance as possible. 

Registration will stay open for one whole week.  So you'll have until January 2nd, but remember, on January 2nd the gates will close. Shortly thereafter, (all being well on January 3rd) we'll let you know if you've been selected or not.  Good luck!

We're still building this year's website but all the details should be on line by next weekend.  I'll email you again once it's up and running.

In the meantime, please spread the word, and keep updated on the GIN Wide Open Facebook site here

All the best

It was a deep impression - my first competition ever with new skills in "how to fly" - tactics, with old and new friends, with informations about Weather and helpful tricks, showed by the Gin Team Pilots. Great job Toby, Brett and the crew!"   -  Joe Smiti

This was one brilliant competition with 124 pilots in high spirits 24/7! Organization was just perfect, venue was epic and people were awesome (rarely met so many nice folks in one place). I'm looking forward for GWO 2016 wherever it may take place and fully trust Brett and Toby to find the best place possible.     -  Peter Bienek

Great competition, amazing flying arena, perfect organization, wonderful people and sunshine all week! GWO is the best, see you next year!   - Boris Stähly
