| Dicey launch but got away with it. The wing is a DHV 2 so quite a bit more sporty than mine. Turns really sharp and handles great. Got up above launch for a good bit but headed home since I was cooking the BBQ for a bunch of folk.
My bro had his 1st 2 solo's on my wing and was happy as a pig in sh#t!! |

| Hike up Poo-Poo with the paraglider. Parents, Paul and Emma came along. Can't believe my dad got up there and in pretty good time. He has arthritis and has been pretty much crippled since I was 4 so this was a real achievement.
I also ran back up to catch them when I'd flown down. |
