I'm an Englishman living in the Netherlands and I've been looking for a good slope soaring site. Langevelderslag looks like it's pretty good so I'd like to give it a go.
Do people fly there on a regular basis?
 
People are flying here every now and then, but 'regular' is probably a too big word.

The condition of the place has become worse over the last two years, the original plateau within the fences has lost its grass over the last two years, so a lot of sand has blown away in some storms. The flat area within the fences has become a huge pit. Now it's better to walk north until just past the pit and fly just north of the fence (it's not far). You can land your gliders north of the fence, but there are some more bushes with thornes there so you'll have to be more precise in the landing than in the past. Lift is still good though, the slope itself has not lost height.

The should also be a nice spot at Wijk aan Zee, probably a bit closer from Purmerend. I have not been there myself, it should be somewhere close to a hotel?

Thanks for that! :-)
I've not flown at Wijk aan Zee but I have flown at Egmond aan Zee. That's pretty good.
But I was hoping to find a spot where there would be a few more flyers. At Egmond there were two of us but I would be nice to see a few more planes in the air.
 
Vanmiddag reed ik langs langervelder slag en zag er een stuk of drie zwevers lekker langs de helling razen.
Ik wilde eerst gaan kijken ,maar ik had geen jas meegenomen.
Wel lekker even vanuit de auto gekeken.
Voor mij is het iets wat ik jaren terug veel in Katwijk aan Zee deed.
Met mijn mpx grob 500Elan.
Nu ik die zwevers weer zag hangen,kreeg ik weer sweet memories.
Toch maar weer eens een mooie hang flitser op de kop zien te tikken.
Was leuk om te zien vanmiddag.
 
Zelfs een EFX-racer aan het duin! Daarvan is ook een hallucinant filmpje op youtube (andere scenery). Hoe vliegt-ie aan de LVS?
