Jeff take a mold of it too, and knock out 4 or 5 of them so you when you plough into the backside you can grab the next one and keep flying!

I'm thinking of flying the big 3 metre Fazer at Woody Point this arvo. The wind is east here at the moment and low tide is at 3:30pm. If the wind stays E I can fly and land on the narrow beach below. (won't work if the wind goes NE however).

Planning to meet up with Ezza at Lemontree near Dayboro this morning for some DS - hoping the strong SW comes in as predicted. Any willing radar-gun holders are welcome!

I can't believe no one has said they are flying tomorrow. Possibly the best Shorncliffe weather is predicted that we have seen in many months!
[issued 1506 Friday] FORECAST FOR MORETON BAY Saturday: NE winds 10/15 knots, increasing to 15/20 knots during the evening. Seas 0.7 to 1 metre. Isolated showers.

Great flying at Brandenburg Rd, Maleny this afternoon. The wind was a bit variable at around 15knots. The thermals were reasonably strong and made the lift a bit patchy at times. Late in the afternoon the lift was smooth and strong, the best I have flown in, it was great. Pete and Simon were flying up a storm, incredibly low and close. They even got me flying through the trees on the left side of the face.
Overall my most fun afternoon of sloping so far.
;DSteve ;D
