What can be gained by working with the program? Get better results Be efficient with the training time See clearly what training aspects that are important for a freeflyer Get a helicopter view of your flying See week points in your flying Choose the right level of your training and competition flying

My thought is that the four different trainingaspects can be thought of as pieces of wood that makes a barrel If one part of wood is too small you can not fill the barrel all the way up to the top The contents inside the barrel is of course success !

Some examples of checklists………..

Baldrick Example of detailed checklist Goal: 2 models ready for Argentina -11 Evaluation: september -10 Short wing span model Not so undercambered airfoil Easy to handle on the line Short distance for acceleration, the launch Quick glide for penetrating the air easy Design that is strong, landing and launches Good colours for easy spotting in the air High launch Wing warps for thermalflying

Concentration, Checklist Example of detailed checklist To use in every competition Think of the breathing Write down positive affirmations and look at them Screen off disturbances Use the goal pictures Follow routines

Nervous, checklist Example of detailed checklist To use in every competition Think of the breathing – calm and deep Think of the muscle tension- tense and relax Smile ! Turn down the tempo Feel safe in the routines

Set goals Most important areas to improve Clear and possible to evaluate Time for evaluation After the evaluation, set new goals from the mindmaps Remember the barrel!

Help with the work Trainer Mentor Friend Make sure you work with the most important training aspects and on the right level!

Mentoring - the Future To help, and see, someone get better and better in the sport is a great reward, a beautiful thing! In my oppinion Mentoring is a key thing for our sport, freeflight, to survive and become bigger in the future.

Become a Mentor!

The Mentor – Pupil relationship is always rewarding for both parties.

Benefits for the Mentor Some examples See the sport from someone elses view Learning to give precise instructions Learning from feedback from the pupil See new angles of the training Get new energy for the own training Get a training partner New motivation to develop the training program Get involved in interesting discussions

Benefits for the Pupil Some examples Dont need to make simple mistakes Quicker way to the top Quicker to get in the social life of the sport Quicker to get a view over all training aspects Help to see what training aspects that are most important to improve Get ready training programs Get quick feedback from someone that is trusted Get more energy and joy in the training Get a training partner Get involved in interesting discussions Learning for the future, the pupil also becomes a Mentor
