Pike Precision Video

The following video has been taken few weeks ago at le Col Du Glandon, the place where F3F was introduced for the first time in France in 1994. This end of afternoon with a light breeze gave super smooth flying and laminar conditions. This place has a north and a south slope. South slope, the one on the video, is facing a valley and the lake of Grand'Maison, built between 1978 and 1985. The slope is not very deep and sharp, but, as soon as the breeze is blowing, provides a very homogeneous lift, with no thermal effect. Really a magic place to fly !
