The weather conditions allowed 11 tasks to be validated, combining navigation, precision, and economy, in a sporting atmosphere led by Pascal Vallée.
The results highlighted France and Italy. In the foot-launched category, Andrea Cecchetto (ITA) was crowned World Champion, followed by Nicolas Aubert (FRA) and Pasquale Biondo (ITA). Congratulations to Andrea for his first classic World Championship!

SOL harness
We propose two types of harness :
Supair, with whom we have been working since the launch of the Macfly brand and now SOL.
We have found a new range of harnesses which remains in the same philosophy but with a few details which will make the difference for the final choice of the pilot for taste and colors.
- Size: S / M or L / XL
- The strap adjustments allow us to have 1 harness, that is 2 sizes
- The thigh anchoring system is higher so as not to hinder takeoff
- The seat of the harness is equipped with a sliding strap on a ring, this allows the pilot to position himself quickly and without difficulty in the harness. The exit is also facilitated
