Ivan & Dave's proposal for alternative comp format

Just to let everyone out there know that Ivan and Dave, after discussion with the rest of us plus some Kiwis really tried to rescue the comp by contributing to a working group and coming up with a way of task setting that would improve safety. I'll leave it to either of them if they want to explain details. As you've read, it was to no avail, the comp is over, but Ivan, Dave, your efforts were much appreciated, and I do think the proposal was a good one.

  1. Thank you Antje, Geoff, Ivan and Felipe for representing us so well. Thank you Dave for being what sounds like an amazing Team Manager. Thank you also for all your updates. I am so sad about the fatalities, and happy if this brings more safety to our sport.
