We weren't sure about the forecast, but decided it was worth a look. Boy howdie did that pay off
When I showed up, Steve already had his HG setup, but it was a bit light (10ish) and a bit cross. So we decided I should dummy it in my PG and went over to the PG takeoff. The first pass was a bit itchy-scratchy, but as soon as I climbed over tree height, it was all sweet. Cross up top, but not horrible. I just boated all over the place... drove around like I had an engine... wicked fun.
Landed on the beach where Steve was doing some kiting and we hiked up and threw him off on his HG. His results seemed very similar to mine... the first pass was weak and scratchy, but as he cleared the treeline... happyland.
Oh yeah, lots of bald eagles out today. Very cool to fly with them.
I got some short videos... not sure if the youtube embedding stuff works yet, but you can always just go to youtube
Happy times!
Thanks again Steve.
