Flying start!!! The 2002 season is kicking off early with courses commencing February this year. Conditions early in the season are often excellent for lower airtime pilots with clear stable conditions allowing long comfortable flights. Though having a late start to the 2001 season due to their successful Everest Expedition, Adventure Extreme enjoyed a very busy summer with course attendance at an all time high. 2002 see's us up and running with courses and accommodation as usual. We are holding stocks of both the excellent Hora 2m radio and the Yaesu range for which we are an official dealer. Free CD ROM!!!! Adventure Extreme (that's us), are giving out free CD ROMS containing their new multimedia brochure/infopack. It's got some good video clips and music soundtracks on it and will undoubtedly become an icon of our era. You can get one by emailing your full details to us from this very website. Nova Carbons. Adventure Extreme will have available the Nova Carbon as well as other Nova products for testing during the season. As always we have on offer a free 1 week course to any client buying a new canopy from us with no trade in. . . . . |
