Lets go play on the beach!
After a wonderful time up on the cliff tops, we thought (well I did!) it would be a good idea to see if you can soar a model glider from the bottom of the cliff on the beach. Luckily the tide was out and we didn't get wet. Give it a heave next to the cliff face and see if it will climb away. The Traceur did well as its light and very manoeuvrable. The Ninja and the Spectre proved just too heavy for the relatively light winds. You will catch a glimpse of Chris and Bill up on top and my attempt at a top landing from the beach.
All in all I had a fantastic time (yet again) slope soaring on the Island. Thanks very much to Jack, Will and Scott for the superb company as well as Bill, Chris, Peter, Tony and Paul for their local knowledge and enjoyable company. Cheers guys!!
Off to Wales next. Hopefully with some off you ?
