Quicky on the hill

It had been breezy all day and although Hangers had been flying at Vault it was out of the question for Paragliders. however news came through by early evening that things were on the drop so we headed out arriving at 18.45.
Conditions were fine so after a demo flight Kev T got up and away to enjoy a nice 20 minute flight in smooth air which he rounded off with a smooth top landing.
Sam A spent the time whilst Kev was up ground handling which he found noticeably different from the tow field with not only the breeze to contend with but also "lift", still after about 20 minutes he had it pretty much sorted. By the time he was ready to go the wind was on the drop so I gave it a couple of go's to check out conditions which resulted in 2 slope landings, enough said. Still a useful evening with Kev half way through his Hill conversion and Sam ready to go, maybe next week.
