I got the dubious honor of the sky pig award for the longest flight yesterday.

I made goal in the Sport 2!

I was the first to land at goal, only 2 other topless gliders made it.

Task 2 of the State HG Comps.

Task 2 of the State HG Comps. My first XC on the Sport 2. A 100km triangle was a big task. I was very late taking off and the wind increased in the day as the thermal strength decreased. I couldn't make the last leg into wind.
The sport 2 is a lovelly glider to fly. The right side trailing edge was flapping away on glide and so yesterday I reset all the baten tensions and now she is tight as a drum and glides way better. She will never be a C4, but she should hold her own against a Sting 3.

My first xc on the sport2.

3hrs 2mins.
Over 10,000ft
A late start but 2.5 sides of the triangle. Couldn't make the into wind leg at 5pm.

Making strips for the comp today.

A promising looking sky.

It looks peaceful enough, but it was 20kt gusting to 30kt.  A nice view but no chance of a flight as I could not get the glider under control for long enough to launch.

Nice.

Nice.
