John!
there is no surprise here

 Mentioned video clip is about  Bruckmann MUCHA supported with full
description of building process.One of the best sites describing building
and flying Bruckmann  glider.Those Austrian made gliders are highly
respected in Europe due their originality of offered  model types  and
combining them with Austrian "know how" skills to make a superior flying
machines.
Both this sites are listed in your site links page... I think.
The thing is :
Bruckmann makes 4 Polish gliders: Mucha, Foka, Fox, Swift in rather big
sizes and they are intended for skilled  model builder and demanding flyer.
In the same time there is a another 50 of  the other gliders of SZD (and
others) descend which could be made in variety of sizes and fly with less
demanding task in mind ( not only ACRO Aerotow events ) to please many .
