Tui Cup Correction  SEN 3412
From:Andrew Barron

A small correction to the Tui World Cup (Southwest Regionals) results in F1A. It looks like the total given for me of 960 seconds is incorrect (too high).  It should be 935 seconds, putting me in a tie for fifth with Jim Parker and moving Guy Goldstein up to fourth place.  All three of us failed to max round five, after flying well in the first four rounds.

Thermals,

MaxMen Update
From : Blake Jensen

Hello everyone, I’m looking forward to serving as your C.D. for the upcoming Bob White Max Men International World Cup competition. Here is a link to the contest flier, complete with the QR code to join the 2026 contest WhatsApp group. This will be the third time we have used this medium to get important contest information out to everyone quickly. This includes: Pole position draws, flyoff times, and updates on field conditions and line location.

We will fly from a line with pole positions and will rotate poles according to the formula in the Sporting Code. As before, we will try to accommodate requests for pole groupings and will attempt to group those who don’t make requests with other flyers from the same country. Timekeepers will not be provided for regular rounds, we will use the same fly one/time one practice of previous year’s. To participate in flyoffs each competitor will need to nominate a timekeeper to go into the pool. There will be a sign up for this and the flyoff pole positions will be announced as soon as possible after the end of the regular round flying. Please let me know if you have a request to be grouped with anyone in particular, the sooner the better. I will have a sign up sheet at registration but feel free to email me ( [email protected] ) or contact me through the WhatsApp group.

Thermals,

Blake Jensen
