Info from the Extremsportveko site:
This is a FAI CAT 2 Acro competition and is organized under the Acro Paragliding World Tour.
We use a boat for towing which will provide the pilot with ca 800-1000 masl altitude.
There will be prize money for the winners.
The results from this competition will be the basis for the slot list for Expression Session, in which the pilots D-bag from a helicopter.
It is desirable that all pilots have experience with towing and a license for this before the comp starts.
For pilots who have not entered FAI CAT 2 comps before there will be an safety run before the first run in the comp.
All rules are according to the FAI rules set out in Section 7B of the Sporting Code.
