1hr +, from 11:45 to... Bates, S
Got to ride the sand pony with 5 of my closest friends.
OJ, Jim, Rich, Otis,
Dave. Nice to have sun, and greatly consistent solid flow.
Got up maybe 75ft over at most, but the strong down low gave me lots of time around the offices... chicks love guys with paragliders... lol... one girl was reading and I literally flew back and forth over her about 30 times.... she didn't look up once... hard to get, geesh...maybe she was holding out for an acro guy.
No joy past the buildings for some reason... even though logic would indicate
S would make the Eucalyptus turnpoint go ballistic...no such luck-lift is where
you don't find it... so, played on the lower cliff (train track) alot with the
strong up... Did some top passes, practicing keeping moving, close to dirt,
without landing, but that runway is littered with bushes, streamer PVC, and
people...almost took Jim out... he didn't flinch tho... he knew I had it under
control....
Super Fun! Super Duper!
WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED IN THE MOUNTAINS ... ERIC, MAGIC MIKE?
Eric made Ojai if anyone wants to pick him up... uber-matic.
Oh, yeah... and then there's this... as of now Henzi is still in the air...
some people are just plain overachievers!
