Good Landing

"This is my second flight in the landing clinic, what a difference actually having a light breeze in!
I look for active air over the bend in the stream and find a tiny bubble. The vario is on NETO so its not really indicating enough to turn in.
I like to fly directly over my LZ with plenty of altitude judging winds, obstacles etc.
I choose a spot and a direction and then plan the pattern by working backwards to my position over the LZ. Ryan asked us to shoot for the center of the bull's eye and I see a very light NNE breeze which means flying close to the windsock pole.
I choose a left hand DBF as this gives me a turn to final with the pole on the inside of the turn, rather than a right DBF which would place the pole nearby on the outside of the turn. The left DBF takes me near the trees again and I hear about it from Ryan later.
The bar comes in and airspeed goes to about 30mph, turning left on downwind well over the row of trees.
I keep the speed up turning base then let the glider slow a little in the turn to final trying to line up directly on the spot, the streamer showing dead calm air.

Round out, ground effect with the spot dead ahead drifting a tad left.
Transition one hand at a time, FLARE, WOW almost a no stepper just 3 feet from the spot!
There is no feeling in the world like sticking a good landing!"

Basketball Tournament Comes To Alcatraz at The Red Bull King Of The Rock Final



On September 18th history was made as Red Bull King of the Rock, a one-on-one basketball tournament, was held in The Yard on Alcatraz.
The event marked the first official sporting event ever held on Alcatraz, and the first time basketball has been played there since the inmates left the island over 50 years ago.
After several hours of intense game play on one of the most iconic locations on earth, Los Angeles' Isaiah "Clutch" Bowman lived up to his nickname and beat Phoenix's Gary Smith with a clutch shot breaking the six-six tie with two seconds remaining on the clock to claim the crown as Red Bull King of the Rock.
