Our Blog is an up to date record of what we have been up to both in the school and out of it. We endeavour to update it as regularly as possible and include a sample the days pictures when available.

You can scroll back through the Blog and follow various students progress through their training and get a good idea of how the school operates.

You will also find records of our trips abroad which will give you a good idea of what to expect should you wish to come on one with us.

Blow Out

Guess that is what happened over night as we returned to Carbis Bay to find it light , in fact very light.  despite our best efforts to encourage the wind to come in it never quite made it which was a shame as the sea thermals were around judging by the sea gulls.

 However Colin N came along and completed his hill briefing and hill exam so thats both him and pete ready to go next time it's good.

As the day went on and people came and went  I finally cracked taking off to chase some gulls circling in the corner.  A combination of very gentle ridge lift and thermic lift saw me climb but with the wind off to the east as soon as you pushed back towards the field it was sink all the way resulting in a walk from the beach.

Fergie also gave it a go and did a fine job soaring the corner before also visiting the sands below as did Ollie.  Frustrating but sociable, looks like the field tomorrow ;)
