that be a sexy glider, never done any sloping with moulded stuff only foameys and phase 6's and the like looks cool

[Ade_Law]

its a real jack of all trades... little bit of thermal flap and no balast and it slows down and out floats pretty much anything when the wind is up fill it with 1.4kg of lead and its a high speed monster that just never slows down.

the energy retention of these models is just rediculous but will slow right down when you want it to.

goose me!! 1.4 kg of lead you wouldn't want that hitting you head on!!!

Was a fantastic day, arrived on the slope and it was foggy and no wind but at 12 it became flyable. Nice to visit a new slope for a change

Is that Westbury near Trowbridge?

[moyesboy]

So what is going on?
Team Outrage is going playing with toy gliders when its foggy and there is no wind?

Westbury, near the Westbury white horse I presume.
I landed quite near there once. Whitham Friary near Frome. I launched on the north side of Rushup Edge.

[Ade_Law]

always have, always will be a sloper at heart :-)

yes thats westbury near trowbridge, we were flying from the north slope at the white horse. loverly slope one of my favorites.

i wish some of the paraglider pilots at westbury would bugger off sometimes i think they tie themselves to the hill!

I am very glad they are at Westbury
Just go sloping when the wind is more than walking pace they won't be there!

Not fake, just brave with a flash, here's another.....
