Yeah! 1st place at the 3rd SoCal Speedo Man-on-man races held at Lunada Bay! If I can pull a repeat in my next race then maybe just maybe we'll attribute some small part of it to actual skill, but most of all it was just being dumb luckiest. -

More Dog Beach. I love the sunsets you get to see when flying along the west coast. -

Flying at the old quarry in Torrance, CA. Only flyable in Santa Ana winds (north winds) but when it blows anything can fly! -

Glider Point with my son. Picture taken after a successful maiden of the new to me ESO Carbon. Son helped carry the Speedo down the mountain and gave it some "added dihedral" :)

Found this old picture of me in the RC Soaring Digest archives. My dad submitted this picture of me flying at our home slope in Osaka Japan but somehow neglected to tell me when he did it 
. After it was published I still remember him grinning ear to ear when he came in and showed me "the latest" edition. Being the teenager I was, I think I may have blew it off, but now in hindsight it sure brings back good memories. Thanks Dad!

My first glider a Kyosho Typhoon with cox engine. Flew like crap IIRC but boy can I remember the excitement when dad brought it home and spread the parts out on the dinning table. -

Oishi Kogen (big rock plateau) a fly sight on top of a mountain about 3-4 hours away. Very cold, but insane lift when conditions were right. My 2M one piece wing JADE Impulse. Good times! -

The Gentle Lady was one of the first gliders that was truly mine. I flew it a lot on the slope, but it also had a finger hole and I would hand launch it on the flat field as well. -

Although gliders became the main focus, the catalyst that got us started into RC flight was a local power flying field.
