Dickies today Friday

Post by tomceunen »

Sparky and I got at launch around 1PM. Almost no wind only weak thermals sliding through the woods.Well it took me several attempts but finally I got a perfect launch (if your glider is not perfect up pull it down , no space to walk and correct at Dickies). I went straight down and after the skyline drive I hit something weak, very weak. But it was fun, it got stronger and weaker again. Some spectators saw me going up and loosing height and picking it again up in the valley. I loved it (40min flight).
Sparky launched, hit the end of the cycle but could hold a while in the valley as well.
Like I said fly fly fly! Tomorrow Dickies again (bye bye Daniels)
