I was in Kjerag last summer BASE jumping and there were a couple of chaps around there flying both PG and Speed wings. I think there was even a speedflying fatality last year there as well. Not being experienced with speedflying yet I don,t know what lines they were flying but it may be worth looking into.

Hi folks!
I'm quite new in this sport but I've had some trips with my SW in Sauda Svandalen, just one and a half hour drive east direction from Haugesund city. There is a downhill slope, that is nice to foot launch from. I've only launched from the first part of the hill (first ski lift) but I've been all the way on top of the second ski lift. From the very top you can see another hill with a antena on top of it which seem perfectly suitable for SF.
Is there anyone from Haugesund area in here?

A few of us did some speed flying from near the eagle's nest above Lysebotn. A couple variations of one decent line but we were there for BASE primarily so the flying was for the bad jumping weather days & between jumps. If you happen to be going to the area, take your wing but I would not make it a flying destination. That said, I am sure that there are other good lines if you work for them, but we rode the BASE bus and walked for about 3 min for the one we were flying. (2000' elevation with rock terraces, trees, and a waterfall)
Fly Safe,
Matt
