This is the reschedule of my first lesson at Blue Sky Hang Gliding School (www.blueskyhg.com/). First lesson got cut short by rain and winds. Today the winds were almost non-existent (or a tailwind for my first flights). My last flight tried to blow me into the beans again! Why do I always end in the bean!?

I liked the camera behind you on flight 5 and 6 and 7. Music is a great addition. ❤

Keep at it! We've all been there. Landing actually gets easier once Steve lets you get higher up, because you can pull in for speed and get a proper round out prior to trim and flare. At that low and slow altitude (which is appropriate for now because your current goal is to learn to steer and to control pitch) you're basically flying almost at trim speed and by the time the line stops pulling you're almost immediately at stall speed, and flaring when the glider is already stalled is hard because the nose wants to point down for stall recovery. What you should do is really throw that glider behind you fast and hard with the nose pointed straight to the sky so you can to turn it into a giant air brake. That will stop your forward momentum. When you flare the glider aim to plant that keel into the ground behind you. You got the best school and the best instructor in the East Coast right there in Manquin.

Thanks! Things started to click a lot better the next lesson. Although one of my flares I pushed that so hard I was worried I planted that keel TOO deep in the ground :) But landed 6 out of 8 that day.
