Title
WORKING RIDGES: A PRIMER
Description
Picking off a thermal climb along a ridge is a necessary skill for the cross country pilot, yet educational material for this is very sparse. Kempton will review the approach, risks, and factors involved with executing this process.

You'll learn about:
- What to look for as trigger points on a ridge
- Higher risk factors including uncommanded rolls, disorientation, stalls
- Next steps for those interested

The guest presenter for this webinar is XC pilot extraordinaire, KEMPTON IZUNO. Kempton began soaring at age 14, captivated by tales of long cross country flights. He earned his Gold badge at age 17 in a 1-26. Beyond writing and lecturing about soaring, he now focuses on mentoring other soaring pilots on better cross country technique.

This is the 6th webinar in a series that focuses on a myriad of soaring topics ranging from soaring safety, off field landing techniques, soaring weather, badge flying, setting up your glide computer, flying cloud streets and oh so, so much more!

Each webinar in this series is presented by a different expert and takes place live every 1st Tuesday of the month at 7pm CENTRAL TIME.
