Comments :: In my quest for new sites I arrived, with flying buddy Daniel Games, to find two guys with Parafoil Kites launching themselves into the strong venturi. Later I flew from lower down the hill into very thermic conditions! Flocks of seagulls were marking frequent thermals off the freshly cut field below. Wind eased mid afternoon and we both soared in good lift prior to the wind veering more southerly. Two more guys arrived with model gliders! With the wind across the hill we flew down and had a friendly chat with a Farm-hand who approached us on a quad bike. Looking back up the hill the models seemed to be doing quite well!
