Tony Vale wins Hollandglide 2003!

With Pike Superior V-tail Tony Vale wins this years Hollandglide by flying longer than anyone else. This year was difficult and this time it was not the landing points that gave him the win. Tony places England firmly on the F3J-map this year and we wish him good luck further on.
Jaroslav Vostřel placed second with Pike Superior X-tail and Cor de Jong came third.

Let us introduce our firm and mainly our products.

All our models are based on our experience and on the experience of the pilots over the world.
Before we make the moulds and start production of the model we make the prototype and test it. As soon as we know that the model is good is time to make the moulds. We cooperate with the top pilots like Kevin Newton from England. He is the designer of the PIKE w.r. and he tested the prototype on the slopes in England. He is also testing the new Brio. The F3J models are tested by Czech pilots - F3J World champion 2000 - Jan Kohout... They all tell us the observations and we make some adaptions if necessary.

Our models are produced in a lot of shapes. Almost all PIKE-parts fit together so you can have different model only when you change the wing tips. There is a lot of options on the PIKE´s:

Wings: You can choose different lay ups- glass, carbon, double carbon - called eXtreme, or special version of PIKE Superior/Plus - light or super light. The flaps are made top hinged and also bottom hinged. Bottom hinged flaps allows 90° down deflection. For better brakes the broader flaps are also available.

Fuselage: is made of carbon / kevlar cloth but also pure glass fiber if ordered. You can have stronger one for slope flying or lighter for F3B or F3J. The fuse is equipped with adjustable tow hook. The other option is the length of the nose cone. You can choose the standard one or 3,5 cm longer one (it is standard for F3J models). The Superior fuse (both V and X-tail) and Xtail Pike Plus is with cabin.

Fuselages are made with removable nose cone with - 2-piece V-tail, V-tail, T-tail
Fuselage with cabin is with - crossing tail Pike Plus/WR or crossing tail Superior and off course V-tail
The fuse with cabin is apx100 g lighter than the one with nose.

Ballast tubes: Standard are ballast tubes in the fuselage - 1 tube for 550 g or 2 tubes for 1100 g. For request the ballast tube can be also in the wings 1000g of ballast more.

Thanks to Jo Grini and Kevin Newton that we can use their pictures on our web page.
