The static system measures the static pressure. So all influences of airspeed are eliminated. In real life this is however not always easy. Effects from angle of attack, side-slip, flap defection, gear extension, engine power setting and airspeed are present and for the aircraft designer it is not always easy to find a good position for the static port.
