Wing Xv2

Postby JoeF » Sat Mar 12, 2016 4:02 pm

The above former posts regarded Wing Xv1. YouTube now has Wing Xv1:

====================================================NEW:
Now, the series has Xv2.
Wing Xv2 features high-hat of two storm-given palms.
March 12, 2016. Wing running and micro hang gliding. Expressing the logo of the WHGA and WWRA:

====================================================

There will be coming Xv3 someday soon.

=====================================================
In close review of the session with Xv1
it has been noticed that a visit from Disneyland was
on the last frame; Mickey had been sitting on the front hood
of the car in my driveway watching the whole micro hang gliding event. :)
Here is a frame from Xv1 flight-session video:

Special thanks to hang glider Angela Boras for the videography.
Notice her car plate in Xv1 video ... A favorite place for her:
Disneyland.
