Back on the frontline

After an enforced break due to illness it was good to get out again if only for an easy day.  Hoping to get Phil l signed off on the hangy we headed to Perranporth where the beach was big and the wind on, ideal.  On arrival a couple of large showers were passing by so whilst Phil rigged the Hangy I nipped up on the ASKA now connected to our new Gin switch harness to see what it was like.

What a good combination they make making the ASKA feel even more secure and the harness as easy as it gets for getting in and out of, come and try it.

The rain arrived the wind went off and James arrived as well so we chatted whilst hoping for things to improve.  They did and pretty soon the rain stopped the wind came back on and it was time to fly.  Phil led the way finishing off his HG hill conversion with a super flight and top landing making it all look far to easy.  James took the chance to put in some more airtime on the Calypso in readiness for his glider (Sport 2) which will hopefully arrive next week.  Conditions varied little on James's flight seeing him scratching a bit before the lift really kicked in seeing him well high.

Well done to them both and especially to Phil who is now all sorted on his Paraglider and Hang Glider, nice work in such a shaort time.

Whilst the guys packed away as the tide came in i sneaked in some more ASKA time :))
