I never seen so many jellyfishes in one place. Alex how long you had to wait on launch looks like the line was huge, nice video keep up the good work. I didn't see any hang gliders all the jellyfishes must scare them off

how long you had to wait on launch

Typically 10-15 minutes if you ready in time.

I didn't see any hang gliders

There was many of them. But they launched later when we went on course and clear skies for them. I think there is a photo of Valle de Bravo from HG in current USHPA mag.

Hey Dizzy,

Wow that place looks amazing. Thermaling and XC with so many people in the air must be both stressfull and also a bit easier to spot lift when you need it....

Marc,
You're right. Its stressful before start when you have to stay in gaggle (100+ pilots) for 20-30 minutes, so you can take a good start. Then everybody get spread on course and help you identify and core thermals (unless you fly super slow and find yourself alone).
