Post by: mattkrrgn on September 07, 2010, 18:04:42 PM

Hey Guys ,

Abit of and an update from me over on the Isles Of Scilly ,in the UK .
The flying here is really awsome ,5 out of 7days a week you can fly as long as you are prepared to walk and find a hidden bowl or sea cliff .Its a 360 degree slope soarers dream slope . HAHA aint I lucky and I get paid to live here ,SORRY Dad.

Hope everyone is good . Ed here is my new mouldie, something to wet your lips Bru haha. Its a Vector eating Mini Blade from X-Models .Its a rocket doing over 100MPH on the front side already plus turns in its own length.

Cheers All

P.S. Mite bring to home in a month or two dad hehe

Hey Matt

Looks remarkably like a slightly smaller version of my “whisper”.

I’ve never been to the Isles of Scilly, I know they’re not very big, but sounds a great place for flying,…….what are the women like?
(I only ask because you obviously can’t fly in the dark, so I’m wondering what you do at night! :wink: )

When are you coming over to the Emerald Isle to show us your skills with this Rampant Rocket of yours? :D

Keith.

Hi keith,

yeah its similar in looks to a whisper, but not as gentle or forgiving . I get two to three vertical rolls out of her so lotsa fun to be had.

hopefully gona be over round november maybe ,but will have to see .

im gona try get a video done , but its hard to fly with one hand and film with the other ,but getting there haha.

got much flight time with your Whisper?

cheers matt
