Warning Zones have been defined as well. These zones should be carefully avoided

A NO KITE AREA (NKA) will be defined in every spot so to let riders set up their equipment. No riding is allowed in in the NKA, you can only exit the NKA when your kite is in the air.

The discarded task will be the lowest scoring one for each rider.

Coming back to Goal (Startgate) after the assigned racetime will produce a penalty up the 100% of the total score achieved . This penalty will be scaling linearly with the extra time used.
The maximum delay permitted will be the 33% of the assigned racetime (i.e. for a 30 min race : 10 minutes , for a 60 min race: 20 minutes , for a 90 min race : 30 minutes)
Not signing the check-in or check-out form will apply a percentage penalty on all the scores for the tasks of the day.

Start gate

The Startgate will be set each day and it will consist in a flag planted in the ground the center of a 30mt square. The square might not be visible. The organization will make sure to have a quad snowbike to carve tracks over the said square.

From the center of the Startgate the mandatory starting and finish flag sequences will take place.
