all's well that ends well. the sbfd was awesome and went the distance to remove the wreckage (some lines were lost)

btw the homeowner was very nice and should recieve a coutesy call from our pr rep.

sb news press was there also

one lucky newbie....maybe we will see him on the tube tonite!

Wow first flight, that sucks. Hope he gives paragliding another shot. I doubt he'd let that happen a second time.

I heard Palm Pilot had an hour flight! Pretty steller for a first high flight!

Sounds like he confused Palm Sunday with Ash Wednesday. Glad to hear no one was injured.

Looked so fun... Maybe Friday????

In case anyone in Login's family is into scrapbooking, his story was reposted in LA news today:

So glad Logan was o.k. and it's nothing more than Palm jokes. Decorate a palm tree, check, done that. O.k. moving on. Hey, I'm back!!! Nothing too dramatic just flying with friends like old times. Fun to have some new pilots around and great to see some of the old crew. Thermals were smooth and friendly and no birds attacked me and to finish up the day a nice landing at the beach. Thanks to Jay for the ride back. Great to fly in SB!!!!
