SKY SAILOR 13 January | February 2019 wings and playing in the dirt. I then got to meet the other pilots who were totally gorgeous, varied and inspiring in so many different ways. We all fell into the groove together with weather checks, flying, eating, laughing, sleep and repeat. For me, Rainbow ticked a lot of goals. Not only did I establish a great network of new flying buddies across Tasmania, Victoria, Queensland and New South Wales, I also got to work on and build my confidence and skills in two areas I wanted to improve, but often don’t feel confident enough to practice at my local site – top landings and high wind kiting and launches. Rainbow is a paraglider’s playground for improving these skills, and the weather sure turned it on for my endless circuits with encouragement and guidance from our group and the awesome supportive Sunshine Coast Sports Aviators – thanks guys! I was totally stoked.” Four more Altitude with Attitude events are being run this season – details can be found at [www.altitudewithattitude.info] . Photos: Molly McEwin
