Phippsy Discussing something with Kaz

With two keen students looking to start hang gliding we decided to head to the tow filed despite the damp conditions to get at least the basics done . We canned the Paragliding due to the dampness which as it turned out was a spot on decision.  Just as we left the house Phil L Illogan) who has recently passed his CPC Paragliding  arrived and decided to come along to watch........

James C (London) was along for his first go with a view to taking it up and Adam W (Penryn) who we taught Paragliding 4 years ago was along to try it as he had always wanted to even before paragliding.  Phil watched on as the guys rigged and joined in with the preflight checks etc. By the time James and Adam did their first runs across the field Phils mind was set and he joined in the fun.

The three guys worked well together and by early afternoon were ready to tow.  The weather cleared up, the wind filled in and conditions were near perfect for hangie day ones.  By the end of the day they had all mastered the basics of flight and moved nicely into releases setting them for tomorrow.

It was a full day for them with super results and convincing them all to carry on, watch this space :)
