OK here i go, I apoligize for my english, it's not that good
I would like to get into speedriding this season, and I am going to a course in val dieser with UCPA. I'm gonna have 23 hours practicing with an instructor in week 2.
I am going for another three skiholidays (3 weeks), and would like to have my own wing.
I have experience with skydiving, 150 jumps in a 170 sqf. Will maybe have more jumps when I go for my speedriding course.
Also I have been skiing for 10-14 years, and see myself as an excellent skier.
As I see this sport as dangerous, and I have deeply respect for it, and I'd like to have a good start.
I have considered a:
Niviuk Skate 12m^2
Swing spitfire 11-13m^2
Maybe a Gin Glider Nano 12m^2
I am 1,83 Meter high and weigh 70 kg, so I haven’t have a aggressive wing load.
It will be great if you guys also can give a guess about how fast I will fly, find it hard to find out what speed I am going to fly with.
Cheers
