Is it your level?ParaglidingHang gliding

Grass take-off. Small ridge meaning low ground proximity after launch and narrow range of suitable wind speeds.

Before you goA site that needs considerable caution. Looks benign but can be rough immediately after take-off. Good XC potential for experienced pilots. Unsuitable for ridge soaring.

Bit cross and gusty this afternoon, worth waiting for it to back off after 3.

Sana M.

Bottom field's clear, gate code's the usual. Cows in the top field, land short.

Mara L.

Busy with walkers today, get there early for parking.
