Nice..... as usual..

That drop backwards at 1:24 was a bit hairy!!

the jump was a double gust. the first lofted me to about 30ish foot then dropped me. I was bracing for impact when the second gust came along and caught me. it looks like the worse part of the jump but its the bit I'm most grateful for.
