Spikie Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 Hey Ashblade, I've just recently moved to Ipswich and, after having to sell off all my kites a few years back to finance a house, am starting to re-equip myself. I'm looking for some places to fly and people to fly with in this area so if you get any good tips can you let me know. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashbladeIII Posted April 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 well, welcome to ipswich mate! would be up for meeting up to fly sometime, I'll be flying on friday 24th april all day, weather permitted, feel free to come along and join, I have 2 locations that i like to use, there are others i'm sure, there is Alton Water resevoir, in holbrook near ipswich, good location provided its not a sunny bank holiday, too many people in the way! also its quite inland so winds can be low, but it is in the countryside so normally free of turbulence. Alternatively, I sometimes use the grove in felixstowe, huge area to fly in not many people in the way good strong steady sea breeze, however emphasis on strong, it can be a bit full on there unless you have a range of kite sizes to choose from, I normally head to holbrook and if its a bit too weak then go to the grove, but i'll drop you a PM anytime i'm going and you can come along and join us. hope to fly with you soon, ash.

Tim2 Posted June 18, 2010 Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 Rougham is your best site for a few miles around and when not covered by the annual Festival looks somewhat larger! For £20 (adult, variations for family etc) you get general access and a load of like minded flyers. Suffolk Kite Flyers - Membership Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ipswich dave Posted June 22, 2010 Report Share Posted June 22, 2010 Alright guys. I live in Ipswich. There isnt anywhere good to fly. Chantry Park football pitch is ok i go there some times. If you want to meet up for a fly some afternoon just send me a mail. As tim2 says the best place is rougham and its only 40 min down the road. The girlfriend and i have been members for a few months now and there all a good crowd,. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
