Hang Gliding | Lesson 13 | My First Top Launch!

In this video, I work on Hang Gliding Lesson # 13 at the South Side of The Point of the Mountain in Utah, between Lehi & Draper. In today’s lesson, I take my first flight off the top of the south side of the Point of the Mountain. I’ve been working towards this day for the past 2 1/2 months and I’m very excited to finally be at this part of my journey. Today, I got 3 top launch flights in today and can't wait for the next day I get to do it again! Please like the video, leave a comment, & subscribe to help out the channel, and also check out my other videos and see my Youtube shorts as well. I’m having so much fun learning how to hang glide and it’s consuming the majority of my daily thoughts now. I hope you enjoy this video journey of what it’s like to learn how to hang glide. Come fly with me!
