About The Florida Ridge Air Sports Park

The Florida Ridge Air Sports Park is a tow park near Clewiston, Florida. Pilots are towed up behind a line, so wind direction matters much less than on a hill. We call it too windy above 16 mph or with gusts over 20. Read the site guide on thefloridaridge.com for rules and access before you fly.

Conditions are an automated estimate from public forecast models, not a go/no-go call. Always check the sky, talk to locals, and fly within your rating. You are responsible for your own safety.
