Paragliding VLOG June 19 No Wind - got Air!

Ho hum. No wind again today. My arm is still sore from shenanigans with high wind hand kiting the other day so imagine my excitement when the reverse kiting session had to become forward launching!
Anyway, I was not going to post this as was just for my own private use but there was a first: I got air twice! I actually left the ground OMG!
Something I did learn from this video is at the time I'm almost lifting off I tend to "skip" instead of bend knees and fly. Oh well, all in good time. It's damned good exercise if nothing else..

I'm a little nervous about leaving the ground in such tight quarters, there really isn't much room on either side, a rocky hill to the right and trees with a plummet to the ocean on the left (which is why I stop at that point hehe)

Going to try a new site that looks big, flat, and open -so will report in then!
