Further Information 

As ever this sport is governed by the weather, therefore, in the event of the weather postponing training all lost days are kept in credit to be used at a later date either in Spain or the UK. However, when not training there are plenty of other activities to keep everyone occupied. These include Skydiving, Go Karting, Scuba Diving, Kite Surfing, Paragliding, Water Skiing and many more. .
