It has been blown out here for the last couple of days here at the ridge. Saturday Lucas and I played a round of golf to pass the time. On Sunday the safety committee decided it was also too windy so a group of us went out to the Atlantic to soar an abandoned hotel on the beach. We were launched by 3 or 4 pilots pulling on a rope to hoist us up into the air. This is the first time I have tried this and it was simply amazing. This is what hang gliding is all about. We were able to get maybe 60 feet into the air, pin off of the tow, and then glide over into the lift band next to the hotel soaring as long as we pleased. It was hard not to be selfish as others wanted their turn. The view was great. We are having fun despite the comp weather setbacks.
Here is a short vid of the fun.
