Firday and beyond

Friday is a day of two half's and we hope to get at least one of them sorted! based on the forecast and current conditions we are heading to carbis bay this morning to hopefully get some hill conversions under way before the wind backs to the SW and drops when we may head to the tow field for some more training. Saturday is looking good for the the tow field and we have a bust day on the cards so if you are booked in please call to confirm your place and if not you never know someone may drop out. Sunday monday could go either way, hill or tow and tuesday Wednesday look like a thin ridge of high pressure could well be sitting over us, nice, so towing should be on. Keep in touch and don't forget our Algo' 2012 trip is now booking up so if you fancy some fun in the sun in Spain in October call now, suitable for all levels (nearly).

Tuesday - Wednesday

Tuesday is dry and bright and breezy with a fresh NNW. We do noyt plan to head out today although if the wind eases mid afternoon we may nip out to do some tandem HG flights and possibly a bit of ASKA'ing. Wednesday looks like high pressure arriving for the day and we plan to make the most of it in the tow field so let us know if you want in. Looking further ahead things get a little trickier to predict so we shall wait and see :)

Sunny Sunday

Sunday and we are off to the tow field with a full house booked in, so you are welcome to come and watch or ground handlebut if not booked in sorry..... Monday looks more like a hill day for hangies and ASKA's and we will be out doing tandems between the showers if good. Tuesday looks windy and Wednesday light northerlies so likely to be in the tow field but will update as we go along. For those of you looking for a top of the range Hang Gliding instrument the Brauniger Compeo + is now a very competative price of £719 having dropped a full £200 and had a few upgrades along the way. Call if you want the low down....
