Personally I really like their website, as well as the fact it has to conform to the AR Series style.
Good work Brent and co.

Aroc, the other major AR organiser in Aussie regularly employ Grant Bluett to place their controls, and I haven't heard of any problems. Mind you these xpd guys have a good record, and usually get it right. It is just a shame the result may have been decided by the wrong control.
In NZ it is much more common to have wrong controls, and apparantly the Southern Traverse often had them.
At least we can be sure that Brent and Jamie will get them right in the summer AR series.

3rd and 4th may have switched places too. Norsewear has passed through the halfway point of the last trek (the one with the problem checkpoint) but no sign of Adventure Adrelain TerraX.

Not only have 3 and 4 switched places, they have both been passed by DART-nuun and Keen Torqers, who have now finished. So they are 5th and 6th at best.

But then...
"Last night race organizers made a decision to shorten the course in order to bring the completion time of the leg back in line with race estimates. As a result, Team Norsewear from New Zealand will be credited with third place when they finish, as they will be the last of the field to finish the full course."
