This is the same Japanese Slalom animation that has been uploaded but the surrounding terrain has been modeled so pilots can get an idea of how much room they have. The course can be setup once then flown in whatever direction the wind dictates.
Thanks to John Black for intense work on putting this competition together!

Hi Jeff, wondering what the specs are for a clover leaf set up? Distance between poles, and height of center kicking pole. Also rules?

71 meters on each side. The rules are on FAI.org, section 10. Good luck!

Jeff is there some guide to making these for practice. Like what to use and what distances to space them at?

The official guide for international comps is the FAI's sporting regulations section 10. In the U.S., it's on USPPA.org under competition. The basics for the japanese slalom are 3 sticks in a row (1-2-3), 50 meters apart. Stick 4 is 50 meters away from stick 2 and perpendicular to the 1-2-3 line. Good luck!
