without a pinch of sunshine all day, kip and i rode up to check out the downhill skateboard race on east camino cielo. rad to see a ton of young people playing in the mountains and flying down the hills. they had a uhaul truck for retrieve and lots of brooms. We watched one of the practice runs before the race. It was pretty rad seeing about 50 of them gettin some! here is a little vid

The eagle bus got andy and john blake off of ej bowl for sledders and tons of hang gliders were set up at eliminator. kip dropped me off at the brotherhood and after the short walk up i stomped out a nice launch spot and jumped off in an easy south light cycle. had a nice sledder coming in a few hundy above eliminator/skyport, antennas, parkers, parma. many of the hg's sledded to the beach and parma.
saw this old hudson river flight video from the black box data last night. i love the dialog between the pilot and radio tower....
