An addition for the paraglider pilots: Wait for the mountain runner in the handover area - Planica 930 m altitude - after the hand delivery you can leave the handover area and head to the starting point at the top of Vitranc 1555 m altitude. During the handover and later on the run to Vitranc, the helmet, the paragliding harness, the parachute and the reserve parachute are compulsory equipment that the competitor carries. When the competitor arrives at Vitranc, he or she must secure him or herself in the harness in the preparation area, put on the helmet, and move to the start. (The parachute can be attached in the preparation area or at the start.) Starting with incomplete or wrong/uncertified equipment is not allowed (followed by disqualification). A starter will be present at the start, who will facilitate a smooth starting procedure with the help of personnel. Any assistance from third parties is prohibited and sanctioned by disqualification. After starting from Vitranc, the paraglider pilot will land in Kranjska Gora on the official landing site at the Kompas Hotel (decreasing altitude by spiral diving is strictly forbidden - disqualification). The direction of the landing will be determined and disrespecting it will be penalized by disqualification (minimum course corrections are allowed, but no more than 20 degrees to the left or right). If the competitor estimates that under the given conditions he or she will not be able to safely land at the official landing site, he or she can choose the alternative landing site, located 100 metres further east (in the direction towards Jesenice). The wind usually comes from east to west (East wind-valley wind). However, on the alternative landing site, the final indicator of the landing direction is a windbag. In either case the competitor must run through the advertising arc after landing with full equipment and continue along the marked path to the centre of Kranjska Gora, to the finish line of the competition. The competitor must cross the finish line with all the equipment and the helmet on the head. (Otherwise, disqualification follows.) It is always possible to abandon the start if the competitor estimates that the conditions for a safe flight performance are outside his or her knowledge and experience. The competitor and the team are not disqualified, and the time counted for the paraglider is the full time (average time + 30%), which is added to the times of the cyclist and runner.
The elimination of a competitor may also occur if he or she endangers another competitor or fails to comply with the prescribed landing direction. The white arrow shows the direction of the approach, but if a cross is drawn on the ground, the landing area is closed! CONDITION: Each competitor must be in the possession of a valid paragliding pilot license and a concluded insurance in the case of rescue and against a third party. Only helmets certified by EN966 (airsports), ASTM2040, or SNELL rs98 may be used. The validity of the documents will be checked at registration! WARNING: The flight start on Vitranc is done exclusively at your own discretion, abandoning the start is always possible! Please note that we are located in the Alpine environment, and therefore suitable shoes are also necessary! If there is no hand-off of the baton from the cyclist to the runner and the runner to the paraglider pilot within the time limit, a mass start from the hand-off point will happen at a certain time for the competitors whose hand-off has not yet taken place.
