Hang gliding practice at Morningside

September 19, 2010. David Gaia Kano's first flights from the 150' launch point. Note that he tends to raise his hands up on the bar a bit too high on many of his flairs. But steering control has much improved, legs are together, body posture is pretty good (chest is out a bit as it should be).
These were taken with a new mount on the wash-out tubes, using a "Gum Cam"

...yeah! Way to keep running, running into the air! That 100' level is among the flatter slopes I have trained on...good practice for running hard, smooth accelerations, confident light touch on the uprights...! And good hard flares, placing those hands well up the uprights, pushing up to the sky.
