I flew tonight at Zilker on my 1.7 Sting lit with LEDs. The gusts were *insane*.. They were kicking up huge clouds of dirt, so I was having to fly with my eyes closed at times.. Later on a gust hit and pulled the handles right out of my hands ;o

I can't wait for tomorrow at Zilker :frog:

Too dark to fly, and no light rigs... Gotta try and get some sleep... I'm going to need my energy. Hope everyone has fun and stays safe...

See you tomorrow burrito
