Final glide
LOL truth Charlie, we are surely not speed demons. But I'll tell ya we have had a few guys, namely Ron Schwarttz, Mark Keene and Daniel Sazhin who have won days at speeds in the high 50mph range. Thats doing something in a 1-26! lol.
This last weekend while racing in a local xc series down here, I had, I think it was, a ventus 2 come blasting past me on final glide. He called to me to look to my right and I saw him blast past me at least 70 mph faster than I was going lol. I got the last laugh on the glass boys in my division however, by winning the day with my handicap lol.
