Sounds like I took more risk jumping the kids paddling pool on a makeshift ramp with an old skateboard the other day...

No 'H&S' bks for me.. I just went for it.

Did you check for windspeed first?

The more important question is 'Did you make it?'

Has this been custard pie'd for today?

[rxtx]

Probably for the next few days now.

Looking like 2:30 or so, a couple of hours to get to altitude IIRC.

1hr 23 for me now. Last time the video was running even though not much was happening....I'm scared I'm missing something.

[Killer2005]
