Another evening flight. It was weaker today then yesterday, a better paragliding day. I got about 25 minutes, but was never above launch (Marshall.) It kinda sucks to only get a short flight, but its better than not flying. Even on a total sled ride you get launching and landing practice, and those are two of my favorite things to do. I had a good, no step, landing with my feet touching down just 4 feet past and right in line with the cone. The keel of my glider touched down almost on the cone. That's probably the closest I have been. One of these days I will come in and smash the cone in good ;-)
I also got to fly with Jeff O'Brian again. He was on his way back up from San Diego and stopped by for a flight. I got some decent pictures and a few that would have been excellent if my camera had focused. It's pretty tough to hold the camera steady while trying to fly a hang glider one handed.
