I think I work backwards, being a graphic/product designer I like whatever I am making look good first – even though beauty is in the eye of the beholder
That has got me in trouble many times as my designs don’t always fly!
Anyway after a bit of research I really wanted this Slope Soarer to work out mint, not only look like those big dynamic carbon ones, but be easy to fly, light, strong and have power. Too many times we climbed the Mount here to find out it was not the best flying for the standard EPP foamie.
Power also means we can sail round the park, field, down the street or if we have a window of opportunity – at a decent slope….

Speaking of which, here is a picture of a nice slope we tested the Ridgehogs Sailplane…
