West Sydney Slope Soarers

 
Thanks to Gaz for sharing this slope site.
Hope to see you there one day!

More details about the site is available from: http://swenban.rchomepage.com/

LocationWest Sydney Slopers primary flying site is William Howe Reserve at Mt Annan
StateNSW
CountryAustralia
WindsFlying is suitable for all wind directions except North West.
Height200m (est)
NotesFlying site is a 5 minute walk from the road. Whereis Map.

Across the park from Devon Pl is a concrete path that leads to the top of the lookout. DO NOT TAKE THE PATH TO THE LOOKOUT. Next to the concrete walking path is a dirt service road that goes around to the right. Follow the service road to the right and follow until you come around the left bend and can see the water tank. This should be as the service road does a sharp left and climbs uphill (DO NOT FOLLOW THE SERVICE ROAD BEYOND THIS POINT) At the left hairpin you should be able to see a walking track directly in front of you. The walking track goes down to the botton of the hill and in fornt of the water talk. The slope to the right of the water tank is the West face flying slope. From here you should be able to see the small grass clearing 80% of the way up the slope. To get to the other slope continue uphill to the top from the west slope.

About EPP Foamies

 
EPP (Expanded Polypropylene) foam is a fairly recent innovation that has revolutionized the slope soaring segment of our hobby and is rapidly finding applications to the mainstream R/C community.  Slope combat enthusiasts are making scale warbirds out of this material for full contact combat. These planes are flown in 30+ mph ridge lift and are designed to ram into each other at high speed and crash to the ground with no damage. EPP foam doesn't dent or break. It has a "spongy" quality to it, so on impact it compresses and pops back to shape. I have nose dived my Tornado II straight into the ground during "rough landings" only to have it bounce about 3 feet in the air and come to rest upside down.  The only damage was some grass stains on the tape covering.  Having this kind of crash resistance is truly liberating.
