Asskicking

3 June 2008

Last weekend there were ass kicking thermals in Tapalpa, more than 8m/s and cloud base around 4500m. When you core one of those bullets, it’s hard not to let out a “yihaaa!” sound.

Girl power

20 May 2008

The strong conditions can be a little intimidating, but if you take our beginner class, you will feel much safer.
