This was my first trip to King and only my 5th and 6th flights on the Mill. It was also the first time I had slope launched the Mill or launch in
anything but 20+ winds. I am still just getting use to this amazing wing!! I only signed up for the Comp to donate to the cause. Maybe next year
I will get serious. (NOT LoL!!)

This trip was a family trip that I was able to talk the wife into bringing my glider along. I was staying in Idaho Falls at the outlaws house and
was only able to get away to fly two days. I was able to go anywhere, everywhere, nowhere and back again. I had a lot of fun just flying all
over the place and then going back to land at John Kangas's place. (King Mt. Glider Park)

What an amazing place to fly mosh

Life's goal is not to arrive safely at the grave in a well preserved body.
But rather to slide in sideways, totally worn out and broken, shouting
"Holy Crap, WHAT A RIDE !!"

That's odd? I logged out of my youtube account and it plays just fine??? Maybe it is because I am in Calgary Canada right now and it isn't blocked here? I will have to check when I get back to Vegas tomorrow and see what's up.

it shows 25 view and 2 likes....crazy

Go to the end of the video above and then click on the video inside the screen that is 5:49 min long. That's the best video of this flying machine.

Awesome video and really nice landing coming into that tight LZ.

Terrific vid, Rolla!
I'm sure Shadd would love / hate to watch it !! Laughing Sad ROFL

It motivates me to get my SWIFT flying ... and to get my lazy arse up to King one of these days.
Now if I could just buy a new spine .. haven't seen one for sale in the classifieds lately. Neutral Confused
