How exciting, go Jack, go US. 
I see a lot of ozone enzoes', Gin Boomerang X.  The enzoe being the new open class certified D. The boom X is the new serial class D. 
 
Also interesting, I see a ozone mantra M4 in 10th place. 
 
And in last place, the airdesign PURE, who flies that ?? Oh yeh, Steve Foresland.  OOPs, that slipped.  I told Steve they should have named that glider "Pure BS"..  That is my ribbing of Steve for the day !!!
Thanks for the link Steve,
Dave

I chatted with Josh Cohn about the new gliders. He's on an EnZo and says the field is pretty much EnZo, Boom X, and Ice Peak 6's with a few others—one or 2 Swing Core 2s and some older EN D's like the Boomerang GTO and Mantra M4.

He said the Boom X looks really clean, turns very well and has decent glide. The EnZo seems to have a speed advantage, but not so much as to overwhelm strategic decisions.

All in all, sounds like the IP6, BX and EnZo are all pretty sweet wings.
