busterflier Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 And that's not the lowest slope, one of them is less than 2 metres high and directly over the sea, scary throwing off, Zagi not efficient enough but F3F models stay up if you keep your nerve That must be incredible.I must try flying something bouncable(weasel?)off something that low for the hell of it.Mind you I've still got the vivid memory of the first time I stood on a hill (Corndon) about to throw an aeroplane off,looking down at how far away the bottom was and thinking I must be mad.It just gets better and better............ :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

f3fman Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 John do you know where abouts on the peninsular they fly ? I have been looking on bing/google maps but havent managed to zero in on them ? Jon S See Kevins write up of 2004, he mentions POLCHOW as the very low slope. We were completely up the North end of the peninsular, and went across to both the west side and the east side of the north end, to get the wind coverage. We were based at Putgarten and you could see one slope (Vitt? SE) from the hotel, and there was a NE on the corner with a lighthouse. http://www.f3f.co.uk/knewt/vkr2004/ I will have a look for better info on locations.

Adam Richardson Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Didn't realise we had an F3F video section, so here is my new pb from Lundy. Irst YouTube comment was someone saying they would rather see the video at normal speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbyr Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Really fast Adam , cant beat a bit of vertical lift , it didnt look like you was even skimming the compression on the cliff lip . Honestly i think that would have been faster if you had . excellent anyway . well done on a stunning PB :clap: :clap: Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gromit Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 Ads new PB during this yrs 'Lundy Slopefest' F3f comp was stunning to watch. It was 'Blisteringly' quick :eek: .
