Round 1 of the US Paragliding Nationals took place in Dunlap, California, from 27 April to 2 May. Great weather allowed five tasks of 45 to 80 km length, involving a combination of mountain and flatland flying.  Brad Gunnuscio (Niviuk) came first, followed by Eric Reed and Rob Sporrer, all on Niviuk Icepeak 3s. John Van Duzer won the serial class on a UP Trango 3, and top female was Meredyth Malocsay (Axis Veus II).
