[Narrated] Hang-glider racing in Utah: Did I win? 

Thanks for the comment. I agree, flying is such a privilege that I try not to take competitions and points very seriously and mostly prefer recreational flying (as you can see from my videos). But competitions are great to build technical skills that in turn improve my recreational flying.

Go fly King Mt in Idaho! I got to almost 18,000 couple of times!

Thanks Attila! Looking forward to the next competition!

Thanks!

Thanks Luke, I thought it about more and I think the organizers made the right decision. It’s the normal rules for any HG competition. No one’s fault that launch conditions deteriorated so quickly, although launch could have been opened sooner since it looked soarable an hour before it opened.

great thing.

You enjoyed the gliding, that is a great thing.

Thanks!

Thanks. There are only a few schools left in the country at this point, but they are all fine. It really depends on your schedule - if you live near a school, that's the best place to start so it doesn't feel like a big commitment. If you're willing to travel and live by another school, there are good options in California, Utah, Arizona, Georgia etc. You can find currently running schools here: www.ushpa.org/page/school-listings (Red markers are hanggliding, blue for paragliding). Let me know what school you choose!

It's something that I do different from others. I'm not saying one is better than the other, it's a preference.
