Wind is perfect for Lawrencetown. Heading out in a few minutes.
Just spotted an excellent slope model on Hobby King. You won't go wrong with this one.

Re: Time for the slope
well- just returned from Lawrencetown. Clear sunny conditions until I got 2 km from the hill. Then thick fog sitting right on the hill. Got about 20 minutes of excellent flying with glasses fogging up so I had to fly without them. Visibility about 150 ft. I met a paraglider guy who checked wind at 33 kph, too strong for him as his limit was 30 kph.
Very nice flying in a dream world of fog.
This time of year is when the winds start to swing to the south marking the start of slope season.
