Title: A sneaky trianlge at Bo peep for may 1st
Site:Bo Peep
Pilot:John Turczak
Date of flight:1st May 2013
Wing type:Paraglider
Flight details:
I took off and after a few beats of the ridge in front of takeoff I decided to go tot he trig point and possibly to firle from there.
Made the trig point and decided to head back. 
Wind strength was picking up all the time. Pushed out front as far as I could and still make it back to the  ridge. Mainly to lose height to attempt a top landing.
Tried that three times and each time just got a lot of dynamic lift over the top plus it was starting to get very gusty, so in the end opted for a bottom landing
Otherwise a very quiet and flyable day at bopeep
