DAY 1 OPTIONAL PRACTICE
12pm~5pm: Tanzanite Park [MAP]
Come practice flying the official course with the exact flag/gate configuration that you’ll race in the big stadium on Thursday and Friday. This is the ideal time for you to practice in a casual setting, meet and greet old and new friends, and start building that finger muscle memory. We’ll have a small workshop and battery charging station on hand to keep you in the air. NOTE: Pilots are not required to attend this day, this is only for your convenience. Bring a hat and sunscreen.

DAY 3 STADIUM PRACTICE
12pm: STADIUM PRACTICE (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED). This is your first access to the stadium on the real course with near race-pace racing. More heats, faster paced, closer to the feeling of what “race-pace” means. The purpose of today is to get everything dialed in, tuned up and highly efficient. By the end of the day you should be very comfortable with the course, and confident that you’re going to kick some serious butt. You will have an opportunity to pass all your pre-qualifier requirements at this time so you can chill and have a fantastic time on Thursday when all the crowds come out to see you fly.
