SkipSoaring: August 2015

South Wales Slopesoaring Adventures. Race reports. Updated 4 April 2015. Where I generally can be found Flying. Skipsoaring. Glider Guider Heaven. Thursday, 13 August 2015. Skipsoaring, the business. After much soul searching I have decided that I am no longer going to attempt to make a business from my hobby. I don't want to take the enjoyment away. I still want to create some planes, I just won't be commercialising them. Fortunately, I hadn't even started or invested any real money into it!

SkipSoaring: Glider Racing
http://skipsoaring.blogspot.com/p/glider-racing.html
South Wales Slopesoaring Adventures. Race reports. Updated 4 April 2015. Where I generally can be found Flying. Skipsoaring. Glider Guider Heaven. There are two types of glider racing that I enjoy taking part in, Man on Man pylon racing and F3F pylon racing. F3F is often likened to F1 as far as glider racing is concerned, but I prefer to think of it as the WRC of the Slope. More info can be found. The other is a form of Man on Man racing. In the UK it was called EPP60. More information can be found.

South Wales Slopesoaring Adventures. Race reports. Updated 4 April 2015. Where I generally can be found Flying. Skipsoaring. Glider Guider Heaven. Well it's been a while since I have written anything on this page! That means I'm flying better, flying less, taking less risks, lazy or a combination of all the above. A Pike precision with a little more substantial damage than we thought and a re-kitted Ceres. The Needle is flying and I'm still looking forward to my first competition with it. Hopefully tomor...

I'll use this page to document progress on the Funnel-web DS glider/ Moulded 60"Plank. Edit 09 May 2012). I'm having second thoughts on whether to bother with a DS plane or not.

SkipSoaring: Where I generally can be found Flying
http://skipsoaring.blogspot.com/p/where-i-generally-can-be-found-flying.html
South Wales Slopesoaring Adventures. Race reports. Updated 4 April 2015. Where I generally can be found Flying. Skipsoaring. Glider Guider Heaven. Where I generally can be found Flying. I am extremely fortunate to be living so close to one of the premier slope soaring sites in the world. It is known as the Bwlch and is the primary flying site for the South Wales Soaring Association. Located between Nant Y Moel and Cwm Parc on the A4061 and A4107. The lift here is absolutely incredible, even in light winds.
