Greg seemed so despondent over the dearth of videos so I've uploaded this test I ran yesterday of landable skids.

This is a good thing. Will you make them available for others?

The latest iteration is the best but only fits onto the Wills Wing aluminum speedbar wheel bracket.

Landing today at Sylmar in a strong crosswind and sliding somewhat sideways across the grass. When I get a section of Moyes zoom downtube to use as a mold I will make an adapter for the Moyes carbon speedbar.

I like those. I was Checking out your Skids when I helped you launch. In they landing you slid quite fat but it is smooth surfaces.
