Nice work Oscar! And great video too! Looks like ideal conditions. Don't try that at Marshall Peak until you are an expert. As everyone will soon know, I got my nose mashed in pretty good today at Marhsall along with a broken left DT when I pancaked in due to coming in to slow and hitting the gradient. That portion of Ave. S looks just super for uphill landing practice. Marhsall is a whole other ball of whacks. {pun intended}
Cheers, Jonathan

Thanks Jonathan ,I'm sorry to hear about your injuries,are you going to post the video . and thanks for the reminder that toplanding is dangerous and even the experts can get hurt . Which glider were you flying ------it wasn't the Sport 2 was it 
Nice Video Adam .that's an old editing technique I learned from my buddy Jonathan It works well ,at least until the second video surfaces
