So I just got off the phone with Roman, the Extreme competition will feature 4 "staggered" stages.

This decision was taken to make it more active and to partially avoid sandbagging at the end of the competition.

G7400 is one of the requirements

Staggered stages, you will only know the first stage at the start of the compo. 2nd stage will be announced approx 5 days before the previous stage ends

Huge competition but the time frame is disappointing. Have to decide between summer holidays and competition. Good luck to everyone (especially to those who have a wife ?).

Albrecht and me decided on a time but you will not know about the exact hour and minute. It's to fight sandbagging and reward those who post strong results early :)
