Takeoff description

The take off is short, completely flat, with gravel, on a vertical cliff. The wind generates a rotor on the launching site which, when the breeze is weak is manageable as it stays lower than three meters. When the wind reinforces the rotor increases, making the take off impossible. It is a technical take off. Not for the beginners or the faint hearted. Very unforgiving.
