If you want to go up, pull back on the controls. If you want to go down, pull back farther.

Awesome vid! Looked like a bumpy ride. Glider flying is a blast. I HIGHLY recommend it!

Very nice! I noticed he started out at 6000 ft. and ended the video at 4500. That was a ton of excitement for that little drop!

I'm glad to see Mt. Palomar hasn't succumbed to the land developers yet. The last time I was in El Lay was about 20 years ago. It exceeded my every nightmare of sprawl and congestion. I found temporary sanctuary by going up to Mt. Palomar. It's truly a tranquil pit stop in the rat race of So. Cal.

Bitchin Gary. Man, you can't help but pucker up a bit hoping he doesn't lose his wind when climbing up an on-coming ridge at about 30ft off the deck!

I would hope that it never will be, what with the observatory there.
