Hang Gliding & Paragliding Challenges to get you Up and Flying Cross Country

Please notify the Webmaster to include your tasks on this page.

Although the Sky Surfing club is not only about competition it is a means by which we can judge or be judged on our improvements in flying. Over the season you can be sure that someone will see you bend that odd upright as well as hear about your visits to cloud base and the vast mileage you have covered.

To help gauge your progress on your XC flying from Skysurfers Club sites (which are not the easiest in the country to fly XC from!) we have drawn up a series of Hang Gliding XC goals For SSC members:

LEVEL ONE
MERCURY TO AROUND ISOLATED TREE ON OTHER SIDE OF FIELD AND BACK

BUTSER TO OXENBOURNE AND BACK

LEVEL TWO
MERCURY TO BISHOPS WALTHAM
