Extended sled-ride at the Long Mynd

- My first flight at this site. The wind had died and even the PG's were sitting on the ridge. I thought I was just me making excuses and I had gotten inside my own head so I pushed through and launched. Total flight time was just under 10mins.
I normally flare single surface gliders too late so I put extra effort to flare early this time and overshot and flared too early which combined with the deceptively long grass saw me flare a touch high. But I did the right thing and held it resulting in a firm but safe no-stepper.
