- This is my site guide for Mam Tor, which is a hill used for hanggliding and paragliding in the Hope Valley, Derbyshire.
Here I detail where to take off and land, safety points and general advice.
Mam Tor takes NE to SE winds.
You are real true ambassador of our sport Darren!
Thank you Sotir! :-)
That T2C is a sweet. Thank you for the videos.
Excellent, reminder of when I used to fly there in the 80's. Always flew off the top then. Thank you.

Hey Darren
Great Video as always
Love the wills wing jacket
Do you have a link for me to get one of these?
Thank you in advance from the German apprentice 😉
I"m afraid not - you could try searching through the Wills Wing website though? Glad you like the video, thank you :-)
@@MooSurfer ok
Perfect
Thank you Darren👌
This may be a stupid question, but why doesn't anyone land on top of Mam Tor instead of flying to the field at the bottom landing field? Would put you closer to your car.
We generally do land at the top - on windy knoll. That's the closest landing to the car. But if you go down because of the conditions, then you land in the bottom landing field.
@@MooSurfer Thanks
What’s Lamming[sp?] season?
Some of the land where we take-off and land is owned by farmers who keep sheep there. Lambing season is when pregnant sheep begin to have their babies - lambs. We are asked not to go onto the land where the sheep are at this time so we do not disturb them
Ah! Lambing :) Thanks for clarifying that! I misheard it.
the more i watch this hg videos the more i am convinced that the geographic name “london” comes from technical term similar to “landing field”...
London fields? Hehe
Very useful. Thanks!!!
