Last day with the "slow cross" team was great.Quick look at the meteo and at take off by 1 pm.There is a bit to walk to get to the TO area (where the cross is), but is worth it.
In a clear day I decided to go for a higher take off: Is worth it the walk (only 20 min more than the normal TO).This can be done in 40 min. Of course, there must be no clouds!Even if I had problem during the flight (a brake line tangled), I managed to top land on the "normal TO", clear the knot and take off again.
Went there to "explore" new flying site (suggested by the Shanghai paragliding club...).Been there 3 days: First, very good, second, meteo not so good, third, gave up (very strong wind form the "back").
A NE wind day gave the opportunity for a little XC in Ma On Shan.There are two tracks: First Take off and top land, second with take off and landing on the beach.Best day ever (so far ) at MOS.

Nice day at Shek O
Little bit XC in Hong kong
Wind SW, strong condition on take off (is better when S SE).Very low cloud base, couldn't see the peak...Found myself in the cloud and in less than 15 sec lost every reference. Fortunatly I had my GPS and managed to realize I was heading full speed against the mountain (recorded 69 Km/h).Missed the official landing (beach) and landed near the roundabout (safe).
Paragliding in HK.Ma on Shan site, very good for top landings.Wind NE-SE. If too strong in Shek O,Ma On Shan is good!
Another nice day in Shek O...too weak for Ma on Shan...
