Very light and slightly north wind today. What a switch from yesterday. The light wind made for very nice launch conditions, but not the easiest racing. For the first time since I've been coming here, there were actually times when we had to make a few passes in the lift during the race. Usually its just full on speeding down the ridge without making any turns. I spent half the flight with the VG rope in one hand and the harness zipper pull in the other, thinking I could land at any moment. I've never been so low on this ridge before. Most everyone took the first start, but Dustin hung back and waited for the second. Either way, he won the day again, with Jeff in second and Daniel in third. Dustin is already counting his money ;-)
They're out at the tow field just below launch every day giving free tandem rides to anyone who wants one and towing the sponsors' banners over the beach. The kids are out every day watching and wanting to help.
