Flying Stories 21/07/07 - Sloping in WA
Authour: Glen from Southern Slope Soarers.
I just thought you may be interested in what we get up to with foam in the West. It's taken the local glider club 4 years to get it up and running, and recognized as a valid State Title event by AWA. Usually around 20 combatants front up for all the action, it goes off. Maybe nationals one day.

The link to our club home page is: http://www.geocities.com/jackjackace/
On the site should be some low level video of the '06 State Titles there and also some pics of local club days under the glider section:

All the rules and regulations we use can be found on the AWA webpage http://www.aeromodellerswa.info
We also host theF3F State Titles for crunchies here every year also. Kye from WOWINGS.COM lived here for a few years and had a big influence on our club and helped us with drawing up the rules for foam combat he also makes a sweet foamie( just a bit of a plug )If your ever over this way drop in or some big lift.
