earth turns and wind burns: McClure Howl 2015
http://westcoastbrit.blogspot.com/2015/05/mcclure-howl-2015.html
Friday, May 22, 2015. Had a pretty fun time at McClure, getting away is a challenge these days. Both days were booming, Saturday I got away from the fishbowl to the southwest, mostly west to start with, then south, then south east, the long way round :) I've landed at Mariposa airport a couple times before so I know its friendly and easy to find. Now I know there also a bar just around the corner! Thanks Wayne for the pickup, my original retrieve plan was not well planned. Subscribe in a reader.

IRON MAN HANG-GLIDING: The Sand Man Cometh
http://ironman-hanggliding.blogspot.com/2012/06/sand-man-cometh.html
Sunday, June 24, 2012. The Sand Man Cometh. Standing on the small head of a rather large rock, perched on the side of a mountain staring down at a descending sea of trees beneath my feet. Wings sniffing the air with anticipation. With each preparatory lift, the left wing would raise up with pressure unbalancing the control frame causing me to lay the base bar back on the cliff to regain control. I caught a climb before getting to them and started turning tight. Russ came over above me and I lost sigh...

IRON MAN HANG-GLIDING: Above and Beyond - A Big Thanks to Sunny, Highland Aerosports, and Aeros Hang Gliders.
http://ironman-hanggliding.blogspot.com/2013/10/above-and-beyond-big-thanks-to-sunny.html
Wednesday, October 30, 2013. Above and Beyond - A Big Thanks to Sunny, Highland Aerosports, and Aeros Hang Gliders. I toyed with taking my chances and flying anyway, until speaking with Sunny Venesky at Highland and finding out that a couple of gliders that were inspected, also had this issue. Given the low altitude flying on the dunes, and lack of altitude to throw a chute if needed, I opted to stay on the ground and wait till I could get it tested. So, why this blog post? I bought this Aeros Combat GT.

Tuesday, February 1, 2011. Who does XC in November in New England? Mt Tom (1st Flight). I had been doing a new workout (Cross-Pit) for a few weeks that was really whipping me into some awesome shape. I was feeling like some adventurous exercise to test things out. Flying Mt. Tom has been on my agenda for a while now. Mt. Tom is a site often exclusive to Para-Gliders due to the hike up a 70 to 80% grade on loose shale. J-J and I starting up the trail. J-J looking thrilled after the hike. We quickly set up...
