My first lesson

Ever since I was born, I went to the Outer Banks, NC for vacation When I was about 9 years old my Dad asked if I wanted to try hang gliding, and I said yes!!!!!! Unfortunately, I only weighed 60 pounds and was too light to participate. I was really bummed. At about 14, my dad asked me I wanted to try it again, and again, I said YES!!!!!! So my dad signed me up for a lesson at Jockey's Ridge State Park in Nags Head,NC. First, I had to go through ground school, and I believe it lasted about 30 min. Next, everyone in the lesson got suited up, and we headed out to the dune to do some flying. Dude was my instructor, and he was great It was blowing East at about 10 (or perfect :)) and we flew off the lower part of the main dune..... And it was Awesome!!!!!!!!!! Was able to land 4 out of 5 times on my feet (mostly due to my instructor). Overall it was a great day, and for the next 3 years I would sign up for lessons. Until, I got my Hang 1 at 17.
