Paragliding World Cup

Each year, the Paragliding World Cup Tour visits 5-6 different locations worldwide.

The goal of each competition task is to fly round a predetermined course with a start, some turn points (usually 4-6) and a finish line.

Pilots carry a GPS receiver to record their flight track, which is afterwards used to verify that they correctly followed the course and determine timings.

Since 2009, there is one event at the end of every year called "PWC Superfinal".

Before 2009 the total winner was determined by adding the results of all worldcups of the year.
