Newbies

With a bit of a dodgy forecast the decision to go training was a tricky one until the shear enthusiasm of they guys wanting to go out took over so off we went. as it turned out it was the right decision and a good day followed.

Mark F (Camborne) and Rod G (Falmouth) were along to start Paragliding and Paramotoring respectively whilst Rob P was along to start on a Hanger. Fiona A was also out for some Paragliding after having to suffer a day of Hubby grahams Hang Gliding yesterday. They all worked well through the morning getting the basics sorted and after lunch we got the hand towing going which saw all the Para's getting their feet off the ground as the wind picked up.

By the time we had got Rob on the Hanger sorted it was top ending for Paragliding so we concentrated on the Hanger and got the winch going. Rob had a great time moving from "moon walking" through to 10' flights across the filed with each one getting better and better before finishing on a real beauty to round off a good day.

It stayed too windy for the floppies but they still had a good day putting in place all the necessary work in readiness for the winch tows which with a bit of luck should be on Wednesday. Nice to see such keen guys all starting together, stay tuned to monitor their progress............
