Two flight in the Duo Discus rented from SoaringNV. Some marginal ridge lift first flight at the base of Heavenly. Second flight I found sustainable lift at the back side of Heavenly, but better in the Jobs canyon. First time I have ridge soared. Amazing. SoaringNV was also a great place to rent from.
At 6:44, what is that black and yellow bar that you clip to the panel just beneath the compass? Is it simply a horizontal reference to enhance your ability to match the tow plane's bank angle? I must say that I really like your approach to safety, calling out your options for emergency landing, etc. Very nice. Please keep posting videos!

Yes, I use this horizontal reference for any glider that has a rounded panel. Thanks
