The twelfth match for the 2008 Hong Kong F3F league was successfully completed on Sunday, 14 December 2008 in Robin's Nest north-facing slope.  A total of 14 pilots joined the race. The north-facing slope in Robin's Nest is known to be nasty of having large turbulence. When the wind is weak to moderate, the lift can be very marginal for running F3F contest. This proved to the case for the contest as the wind was averaged at about 4m/s. The variation of wind  speed during a run can be between 1m/s to 7m/s. The contest had to be interrupted quite often as the wind speed was varying up and down. After almost 5 hours of contest, only 4 rounds were completed as the pilots had to wait in between wind bubbles. Ah Wing took the first round with a 62.55s which is well above the others. In the second round, it was even more amazing that C.M. got a 56.35s run while all other times were in seventies. His Extreme must have been designed to take advantage in some special wind conditions. After a relatively long wait of wind and some discussions of the suitability of continuing the race, round 3 and round 4 were finally completed which were both won by Stanley with times at 63.35s and 69.47s, respectively. This enabled him to crown the championship of the day, followed by Ah Kin and C.M. Congratulation!  The summary of the score table is shown below, for details, please check the score sheet.
