High Flyers

 Martin gets ready for his first trip to the top of the line (and it's a long line)

 Phil looking cool under the Calypso

Pete inflates on his first flight of his taster day

A bit of a change for the day by heading to the Tehidy Barton field as the wind was forecast west so hopefully down its length.  It was the right choice and with a pleasant breeze everyone got set up quickly to make the most of it.

Whilst Rodney (Falmouth) struggled with petulant paramotors which were not keen to play ball the guys got going on the winch with Phil L  (Illogan) leading the way on the Hangy.  Phil had another wicked day converting onto the Calypso and finishing of his CPC tasks and building experience for the hill. The extra tow length saw him nicely up around the 700' mark giving him plenty of time to try a bit of speed flying, giving him a runny nose, nice.

Martin J (Plymouth) still looking very pleased with his new purchase slotted in and quickly finished off his EPC tasks before heading to the top of the line to start his CPC ones. So good to see him getting to grips with it and once again not a foot wrong on landing :)

Simon L (Plymouth) did a fine job finishing off his final CPC tasks by performing some very impressive Asymmetrics but dealing with them in fine style and enjoying them so much he thought he would do them again!  he played for the rest of the day again building experience for the hill.

Peter H (Tavistock) was along for a Taster Day having done some paragliding 20 years ago and did really well through the whole process resulting in 4 super flights and a release on the final one.  Hopefully we shall see him back again soon.

So a good day all round with Martin gaining his EPC (Pg), Simon his CPC (Pg) and Phil his CPC (HG), all we need now is some hill weather.....
