When I first got a rigid wing I was profoundly impressed with how much it expanded my horizons at local sites, and how much farther I could venture out from takeoff, even on marginal days.
Steve is this glider you first or did you start with less performance gliders first and do you think this would be a glider for someone with experience to go up to.
I started with intermediate gliders. Then moved onto performance gliders then started flying an Atos. However the Atos is very easy to fly although the glide coming into land takes some getting used to.
fyi, this looks great on my Quest 3 vr/mr headset, on a rather large virtual screen. It makes this look life size. Laurie NZ.

That is what I have found. I am still impressed with what it can do and how far I can go.
@@steveyoung-hanggliding I’d try one if weren’t so bulky for transport and storage and cost. Other than that they look beautiful.
Nice place, beautiful wing 😍
Beautiful 😍
Nice one Steve
full flaps applied each time during nilwind landings too?
