Takeoff description
There are 3 takeoffs.<br/> 1) N-NE about 50m down the black ski piste from the chairlift top station. Grassy lane with a lot of space, relatively flat. Start is very easy.<br/> 2) NE-SE a small spot East of the above launch. Quite steep. The launch is small (space for 2-3 wings) so on crowded days please do all prelaunch preparations on the North lane. Start is easy with E wind.<br/> 3) N-NW about 50m down the red ski piste from the chairlift top station. A lane with some grass and rocks, relatively flat. Start is easy with N-NNW directions, but may be challenging with more west wind (hazard of rotor from nearby trees).<br/> Launching from ski pistes during the skiing season is prohibited.
