Today isn't going to be great thermalling day but I might get in some ridge soaring, and I will even try a new (to me) launch technique using the A and C risers. The wind at launch is SSW averaging 10 to 12 knots, close to ideal for me. The new technique is great, I feel like I have control of the wing, being able to bring it up slowly without over flying, even taking it back down from half way up, I'm not pulled all over launch, I'm sold. There is only weak lift, and I scratch to 130 m above launch and spend about 25 minutes mucking around. Another successful top landing along with an improved launch technique make for a short but pleasant day.
