first ever night ride


im going to attempt my first ever night buggy. tomoorw night 15 to 20 mph im thinking 5 meter flow and for the ride a libre vmax. i know im insane we have almost no moon tomorrow. it will atleast be cool. i may be insane but at least i will have some fun this week. hopefully the drunks coming out of the bar directly to the south of the field keep there eyes on the road and not on the huge shiny kite. i almost forgot the field i am going to fly in is in the city at least it is well lit by the lights.

thunderfoil 9 ft.
Flexi sting 1.7m
Ozone flow 2.0 m
PL Vapor 3.2 m
Ozone Flow 5 m
PLVapor 6.5 m

the field is next to a housing addition and the wind just sucks. if the wind is from the north its not to bad but south winds it comes through this neighborhood full of trees. sucks that wind wasn't forecasted right for you.
