@RideTheSky61 it was very cool to finally get into a double surface intermediate glider. Since training in a Fun190, and then buying a Fun190 of my own, I've never flown anything different. It was fantastic to feel so much more freedom and opportunity with the performance - can't wait to make the jump to Mitchells Point and a run down the coast and back....clubbed up Gangajang is pretty cool too :-) thanks for posting RideTheSky!
@1DuneRat thanks DuneRat - the lift was light at first and then picked up, but the sky was amazing and flew for as long as I could - ended up packing up in the dark...it was great to finally try out the new toy and much appreciation :-)
@NMERider thanks Jono - was a long time in the planning to get the kite here and well worth the wait - beautifully made glider with quality finish, launches easily, flies sweetly and lands gently.I was very happy for my first flight, and first flight for me in an intermediate. I wont be pushing your record on cross country flights but I'm looking forward to getting it out into the country regions and doing some cross country thermalling :-) thanks for your comment and always enjoy your vids!
@eliade66 the Falcon 3 you are flying is a great glider as my mates who have just bought them attest. I have been flying an Airborne Fun190 for a while, and it is a great Aussie made floater like the Falcon3 but didn't have the legs for the cross country flying I also enjoy and this opens more opportunity. thanks for posting Eliade66 :-)
So very, very cool!

Congratulations for your nice wing! Sport 2 has good chances to be my next glider later on...
