"I'm in support of ANYTHING that furthers or promotes the sport. I will
still finish my LSF in the old way, new way, anyway - doesn't matter. I
will participate in any new task format LSF or not. I will not discourage
anyone from trying new ideas. I will not attack them for trying to present
new ideas."
All the tasks help make one a better pilot (maybe the 8 hr slope also
teaches bladder control). I do wish I had someone down here to fly with
and share it all with, but that just isn't how it is right now. Looking
forward to something new, new options, new formats, tasks, whatever. Would
like something that would let me do it here with just regular people as
witnesses, like the Canadian Soaring Tasks. Heck, Doug Barry is trying to
do his second LSF V thing only flying an AVA. Already did an XC with it.
Contests will be a lot tougher, since there just aren't the numbers anymore,
but I bet he doesn't give up.
I watched a neat movie on the World's fastest Indian (Burt Munro a NZ
motorcyclist who had to travel to Bonneville to have a place to set the
record). If that's what it takes, there are some who will do it. But
there's still room for the soapbox derby.

Not to mention that it's entirely likely that some legs might be flown
in a straight line at speeds in excess of 20-25 mph. When I was young
I was quick, but I never broke a one minute quarter mile+. Even on a
cool day a person might break a sweat chasing down a sailplane in this
task :)
