Tuesday Top Landings @ Marshall Peak - Video

I headed to Marshall Peak yesterday to work on some much needed top landing practice. In spite of the multitude of errors I had a great time and captured enough footage to see what I can do to make it safer in the future. I had Kim from the Crestline club with me on radio the whole time so there was no risk of having an accident and being stuck up there. I may make another video from all the footage in which I discuss what worked and what didn't. In any event it was thermic and moderately turbulent yesterday but in the summer it can get very rowdy. Please don't attempt top landings without expert instruction. That excludes me.

Enjoy, Jonathan

I removed it during a period of excessive abuse by the Crestline Hang Wanker's Association. Additionally I deleted nearly every post I ever put on their forum. If I ever upload it again I will remove all references to the location.

Not you Dan. You're not one of that elite cadre. Hopefully whatever evil spirits inhabited said individuals have long been exorcised. Let's not forget I'm still a dues paying CSS member.
