Directions at http://www.cosmicskate.com/home.asp Allen Sparks and Scott Hall have seen the rink and can attest to how nice it is. A Good number of Velocity flyers/Green landings/and Ultra lighters are coming as well !

Come ONE AND ALL ABOUT 30ish people are planing to show up so far !!! Slugger out ? P.S. if you need to check your wing for the new season the rink has a lot of room to lay out your glider and untangle the lines patxh holes etc. 30 eyes are better than 2 ... Ie.

Thanks for the reminder. I'd come, but I'll be at Florida Ridge on Sunday.

Thanks everyone, especially, of course, Spark. I'm something like the 50th rating he's issued!

On Sunday, we piled our gear into his truck and he handed me the P2 exam on a clipboard. I took the test on the way to Rich Bloomfield's property where we gave Spark's tow rig a good workout. I did 14 tows with altitudes up to around 300 feet...enough to crank out some 360's on approach. Really good practice. I also enjoyed the practice with forward inflations, which I hadn't done enough of. Only aborted one, so I assume that's a decent ratio.

I'm taking my new wing and new rating to the Dominican Republic next week for some mellow, warm weather flying. So, I'm signing off the forum now while I get set.
