That didn't look like the best spot to land on...

wow, hope you are OK. Those rocks where you landed looked pretty scary.

Phew! Glad you are ok! I've had a couple scary near-eating-rocks-encounters on my 12m bullet, nothing like a downwind into a pile of rocks! Nice work for staying alive! BSBD!

Hi- very glad you were ok and kept flying. I am a big fan. Can you give a little insight on what you do now to avoid this? I may be a little dense but I haven't figured it out yet.
thanks

The simple answer is dont launch if its not perfect, each persons perfect will vary but always stick to your own standards. If youre not happy listen to your gut, its normally right! I shouldnt have launched that day but was new to speedflying and speedflying was a new sport so I was learning for myself and the sport in general. Very careful now and eliminate risks where i can. If people are starting out, keep it simple is a good mantra, light winds and a nice long launch.

Yes im fine thanks. Its an old vid of mine from early 2007. I posted it to highlight something in a thread on the PG forum thats all. I was lucky, i got knocked out but all i had was cuts to my face and a nice mark down my helmet.
