SB is on!!!

I flew again today despite the low cloud base. It was amazing air.

Around 12:30 I launched at Skyport close to cloudbase and found lift when I got to the Round House spine. This took me to the Antennas where I went up until I had to head out due to the developing cloud.

I headed out for clear air in the neighborhood and found great thermals that put me in position for the beach, but I had to get down for work. So heading to Parma, I caught another good one 200 feet off the deck and went back up to cloudbase. Running along the Riviera, I was maintaining or going up. It felt like I could have gone anywhere, but work was calling.

Back to Parma and the whole air mass is going up. I spent 15 minutes over Parma wondering if I should just thermal up and head for the beach. I found an area where it wasn't going up or down and spiralled down to Parma. No wind in the LZ, just boyant air.

Driving away I noticed cloud streets heading towards the ocean and beyond like claws. It was an amazing flight with air that I haven't seen in SB in way too long.

That's two days in a row that I've flown alone, what's going on pilots? Who's going up the hill tomorrow?
