Some challenge in pitch(speed) control being not used to handling the glider from the basetube.
Overall I made a good progress. Just waiting for the “you’re clear for the truck tow!” moment.

👏👏👏 very interesting your progress...in a "safe" environment😊
-
Nice!
-
Nearly made it so close weldone

I'm watching in reverse having already seen your perfect Lookout top to bottom an then you land a pretty good spot landing here or the other one. The thermals you get in the middle of the day are you friend as well as a nuisance. I have flown 43miles across country on a very similar single surface glider to the one you are flying here and it makes some sense to start to develop your skills on an easy handling wing.

Nice flying! Getting it down!
-
Nice job! Really like your turn coordination..
-
Wow great job! You are looking more and more comfortable during your flights.
-
Nice flights..a little thermal activity.. its fun. Small thermals lifting one wing up. Try to climb into them..more air time.
-
Great videos. I know in planes you increase pitch before turning to even out the change in the lift vector to maintain altitude. I don't know what you would do with a hang glider.

Definitely wanna try this. I live in VA close enough to visit Blue Sky. But I should probably lose some weight first. I'm 250 lbs, and the site states that the upper limit is 240.

The gopro not listening 🤣🤣

Good evening, what kind of fabric is used for the glider and is it air insulating
-
It was so much fun to fly with you in this video, and great job on your spot landing!! awesome!! What's the technique to turn without losing altitude? Hey, did you know you can switch the gopro to a Japanese setting and you can tell GoPro to stop recording in japanese? I bet that'll work! 😂
