July 20, 2010 - Part 2 of 2 videos for this particular race day.  If you are going to race gliders up in Logan, plan on falling off the ridge at least one day.  It most often happens when the ridge lift is light but workable earlier in the day and then as you are heading south at the end of the day trying to get home the winds calm down and you sink off the top of the ridge.  Now you are left with 20 more miles to go and slowly sinking closer to the Idaho farmers' fields down below.

This video is a little bit slow but it will show you in first hand detail what it is like to have this happen to you.  Thanks for watching! :)  Bruno
