I suppose this subject must have been posted before, however, as I review the world championship daily results, it is obvious the smaller fuselage models have a distinct advantage over gliders many average to larger size pilots are obliged to fly.


After seven days, the highest ranking for a slim fuselage glider in 18m is 20th. The top 19 are all "wide fuselage" gliders -- either ASG-29 or JS-1.
