The next one will be in Italy’s Pieve d’Alpago from 8th to 15th June. Beskidy Cup is the first “big” cat. 2 competition run in Poland for a very long time. It’s also the first time when Polish Paragliding Nationals are run in two rounds. The champion titles will be awarded to the pilots with highest overall score gained at both events. So the winners will be named after discarding the worst results.

Unlucky weather caused competition cancellation
Unfortunatelly, due to unfavourable weather conditions we have decided to cancel the first round of Polish Paragliding Championships 2013 planned for 1st-5th May in Szczyrk/Poland. We hope that we will be more lucky next month in Pieve d'Alpago in Italy, where we have planned the second round from 8th to 15th June. See you there!
