Projects
Land sailing
I saw a few pictures online of land yachts, and thought it woudl be a good weekend project. 4 months later, I was finished:)
I took it to the Nevada desert in March for the America's Landsailing Cup. I placed 9th in my class, which sounds impressive until you learn I was only competing in a field of 15. It's a very small sport in the US.
Here's what it looked like putting some finishing touches on a new sail at Noisebridge.
I wrote a blog post about it.
Here's some video I took during the America's Landsailing Cup, and some unedited video from just playing around and practicing.
Hang gliding
I've been learning to hang glide over the past year or so.
