I once got a several guys to build one or more Skeeters, and we all modified
them so that there was not even one in the group that was stock. We flew
the heck out of them all that summer and had more fun thermalling, sloping
tree lines and backyard walls... it was really great.

That's why I love my Sharon Profi!!! It has plenty of tail volume, a more

For those of you interested in F3F racing, there is a move on to try to
secure a site on Maui for the 2002 Viking Race (kinda the unofficial F3F
World Championship). If we pull it off, who's coming?

on light, stretchy mono (and where possible by guys who could run fast
and were not all that big). They were using one-man tows, straight ahead,

Hey there, Karlton. I'm with you! Look at the intro to the LSF site. It
refers to the aesthetic beauty of soaring in the opening lines: "A slim,
graceful, long-winged craft arcs upward smoothly and steeply into the summer
sky, accompanied only by the faint whistle of air accelerating past its
Skip's photos are great, but does anyone have any photos of the whole group?

Dudes,
I'm not a skeg guy but you're missing one point
I'm planning on holding a TD contest sometime next year with a precision
landing task that will be a "real" test of skill: a 1.5m wide "runway" that
is 7m long - if the nose of the model stops anywhere in the first 2m it's
25pts., in the second it's 50pts, in the 3rd it's 75pts. and in the last
13 matches
