Need some Coaching! Happy to meet Bournemouth/Bristo/Hamsphi

Mon Aug 23, 2010 3:49 pm

Hello! Well i own a deepspace and have been flying for some years, on and off! I've never got into tricks and watching videos on youtube then heading to the fields to try and replicate it just doesn't work for me!

If anyone who's good at tricks or even not great but would like to meet and fly and maybe teach me a few tricks please do get in touch!

I live in Bournemouth but i do also drive to Bristol to visit family who live right on the downs!

Regards,

Nic!

Come and spend some time with us at the Portsmouth festival next weekend... I'm sure you'll get some pointers at some point over the weekend.

I'll give you a shout next time I plan to go and flick icarex in the New Forest (usually Godshill Cricket ground, Stoney Cross Common or Wilverley Plain) -- or maybe we could meet up at Mudeford beach.

And once you have been truly bitten by the bug then come along to Bristol festival the next weekend for some more help.

I'm living back in Bristol from september onwards, so happy to meet up for a fly when you visit.
Also look forward to meeting you at the festival there.

What did you break? It's quite possible that you can source spares and someone to help you fix it at Portsmouth festival.

I am likely to be arranging a Better Flying Day late October or early November on Bristol Downs. If you can make it you would be more than welcome.
