Slope soaring can be very relaxing, it can also be the highest paced adrenalin fix you can get in RC, just search Youtube for dynamic soaring, the fastest recorded speeds are done without motors using soarers on the slopes

I've FPV slope soared, it's a liittle challenging but meant I could keep my Skysurfer in the air for more than an hour using hardly any battery at all
Sometimes you feel like a blast with a mini quad, others you just want to relax on top of the mountain
