Check out the above site for loads of information on different types of gliders. I will be ordering the Bio Air Skim tomorrow. Its £700 and a grate option for an all-rounder.

Hi,
Sorry for the slow reply but i haven’t looked at this site for a while. i Have the skim for two months now and it is worth every penny! I have used it for speed flying and ridge soaring in 36mph winds! I have put 6 videos on YouTube of me flying it. Some are better than others but you will get a good idea of what the wing can do. All the film was shot with the trimmers set to slow. With trims of it can get up to 70kph! You can also reduce the glide from 5:1 down to 1:1 using the central command line. Totally awesome micro glider!!! Have a look at the links below for my vids:
