Helico TrainingWhat a great training trip we have just had! Only one week in Olu Deniz but we managed to achieve some fantastic cionsistency with Helicopter - judge for yourself and check out our Videos 2010 page. Peace!Lakes Charity Classic 2010!Wow!! What a party and event this years Lakes Charity Classic was! It was just truly unbelievable. Incredible music, weather and people made for one of the best events in the UK paragliding calender! It was a great privelige for us to be invited this year and we met lots of new friends and some fantastic people. This years one is gonna be hard to beat! Check out our videos 2010 page 'Terry & Zebur visit Keswickistan' for our take on this years LCC!Not Much News!Not much happening but winter is nearly over.. stay tuned! Hope you like our new website.. feel free to check out the sordid past of our new team mates!Welcome to our new webpage!!Hi and welcome to our new website! It has been a slow process but finally it is nearing completion! I have just added a video section - unfortunately there is some sound issues on some of our videos right now (i.e no sound)! This is due to the fact we have had to embed them from Youtube. Of course the scum suckers from Youtube have chopped some of our magnificently chosen soundtracks.. I am hoping to be able to upload our own video content directly on to our webpage at somepoint in the near future!Content wise it is all going to be there, but in the meantime, feel free to check out our vimeo page (linked from our video page). Have a look at our ultra cool pic gallery, ok the pics are crap but just check out that carousel motion!.. Actually check out the vid page too! The vids are crap but seriously it looks pretty..ok i am off to try and find a life - hope you like! Cya !The Sick and The WrongI was down at the Sick & Wrong HQ last week to pick up my new Sick and Wrong sponsored Ozone FLX 2. It was great to see Steve Giles again. We had spoken by phone several times, but the last time I had seen him was after he dropped Remo Neiderer from his tandem during the Lake Charity Classic the previous year. I am really chuffed to be involved with the S&W guys. It is always a friendly atmoshpere in the shop and I feel really happy to be sponsored by such a friendly, dynamic team.It is fair to say we are in the middle of some rubbish weather right now. Slow moving low pressure sitting to the North of us with another deepening Atlantic low waiting to take its place. This has not given me much to look forward to other than more rain and high winds.. well it is the UK! I managed a really small soaring flight on my FLX2 which was great! I was so impatient to fly it, I didnt even sort out the symmetry on the brakes! I just jumped on it and soared for an hour and a half on a local hill close to my house. I am feeling really excited about doing some big winter hill climbs this year. I need to slowly get myself back into the swing of flying acro. I havent flown acro since May so I am seriously out of practice.Adam and I have been invited to do a talk about Paragliding aerobatics down at the Northumbrian Club night and then the next evening we will be doing a talk for the Cumbrian club. Our aim is to discuss learning acro in the UK and the difficulties this presents to pilots wanting to progress in this discipline. Being stuck in the UK and being time poor presents its own set of dificulties and we want to discuss this in a bit of detail. Of course we will give a good overview of the discipline of Acro from its beginings to where it is now - the inventors, the pioneers, some videos and I will take an acro harness and paraglider down to show the other pilots the equipment we fly with.. this will probably be followed by a Q&A session on why Adam wont get on a plane and why Zebur has given up his day job as a crime fighter! I think it will be good!Best Regards, Terry
