2019 SSA handicap list

And no, unless you have a recognized Doctors note, 40 gallons of "drinking water" is not allowed...... Yes, decades ago I asked this (being a skinny f'r.....). ;-) Way back when, flying a light -20 A or C, I was at a disadvantage being light (150lbs in street clothes) against -20 B's and similar on a ridge or good day. I am significantly lighter than you, Charlie, and I fly a very light glider, thus am about 20% below the max gross. When I flew at the regional contest last year the weather was rather hot and I asked the CD whether the extra water bottle was OK :-) Seriously though, if they apply a correction to my handicap next time, based on my being far below the reference weight, I won't complain.

2019 SSA handicap list
They should have adjusted your handicap based on flying weight. Some contests use provided weight, some have scales.
