Whoa. 3 comments! It's been a while since I've seen that!
Let's see.
Yep, it's itty bitty. I've posted some pix of the flight taken by a fellow traveler on the ground. It's small inside but to glide it has a huge wingspan compared to the cockpit.
As for the "Bumpy Waterskiing", that part I LOVED. It's a blast being buffeted around like that, but it makes for lousy video!
And yeah, I'm thinking about getting my license and doing this regularly. For the intro flight he only takes you up to about 1500 feet or so to keep the flight around 20-25 minutes. When you do it yourself, the starting altitude is around 5000 feet. Think of the VIEW!
An old guy who you would find boring.
Special skills include:
Ability to eat a whole pizza in a single sitting, regardless of size;
Amazing taste in comic book related apparel;
My cleverest moments invariably occur when there's no audience.

That's an itty-bitty little thing, isn't it?
That is frickin' awesome!!!!!! Bumpy water skiing-LOL! I need some dramamine before I watch that again.
Excellent! Is this the beginning of a life full of glides?
Did you have to take a course first?
I didn't quite catch the name of the Glider but it looked like a russian name. Are you a secret agent? ; )
