My strongest advice is to consider the trailer first. A Cobra. Yes, there
are several copies but....get a Cobra. Whatever ship is inside of the Cob
ra trailer is going to be wonderful.

I second that. I've seen a few gliders obtain damage because of not-so ideal trailers.
A trailer might be fine if you're fit and have a strict checklist, but when you outlanded after a long flight you might not pay attention. It would be great if a well-designed trailer can save
you at this moment.

I got one after someone scratched my wing when he wasn't paying attention. And I've seen a few club gliders obtain damage because of bad trailers.

The second STRONG suggestion is to get a one man rigging system. I use the
Cobra system for both my gliders. I have been very happy. The only dings
and dents in my planes are when people helped me rig instead of using the
one-man-rigging system. People mean well but push and tug and lift and low
er the wings at the wrong times and that is when I have obtained my "rashes
."

Also true. Unfortunately you don't make a lot of friends when (de-)rigging your glider is a pain.
