I enjoyed the full 21.55 minutes Darren. Thanks for the upload!
Thanks for watching Thierry!
Man well done. Showing your class.
Brilliant Daren congratulations on your 2nd place. that was a great!. Well done for hanging on in there and persevering it really paid off for you.
Thanks Pete, it DID pay off, though I didn't expect it to!
Thanks once again Darren. It is so interesting watching your flights in the Scottish highlands, while we float about in West Oz, catching some great flying two days either side of the winter solstice!
You're welcome - I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Brilliant! Very thrilling, had to look until the end! 👍👍👍
Thank you!
That was a great flight 🤘
Brilliant and so much better than when pilots add music. It will be 5 years since I last flew but intend to go back to Algo late summer for some thermal therapy.
That therapy is very much required!
Great video, loved the running commentary Darren, nice one 👍
Well done DB! Love It!
Fantastic viewing 😎👍
Greetings and thanks from Norway🎉.
Hey Roberto! Greetings to Norway... I do want to come back there.
Awesome
The camera footage and the sound is top. I also enjoy how you explain the decisions and tips.
Congratulation to the result too.
Thank you!! I'm going to try and do more of this...
Really enjoyed the video Darren!
That was great ! good job interesting and fun thanks for sharing 👍👍👍🇺🇸
You're welcome - I'm glad you liked it.
How beautiful a day out was that! Perfect views and mellow flying.
Not exactly mellow... but not European conditions either.
Well done, Darren. Well done....
I can believe it. Well done.
I can't believe it either Steve!
Nice one!
I am very very happy,that You made it!!, congrats my friend 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you! I was very very happy about it too!
Great video. Well done on 2nd place
Cracking flight and film. Well done. Imagine the sphincter was tired from the all those butt clenching moments 😂
It certainly was! I was very pleased with this one though in the end.
Great video; the only thing missing was the singing! I always enjoy doing an X/C on my own, rather than just hopping from gaggle to gaggle.
Love it!
Good job I come back if they called it sport class not club class
Great job, great flying and excellent narration along the way! Doing all the editing yourself? Beacause it's a joy to watch 👍
@Gola60 yep I'm afraid I do alll the editing- that's why it's so slow! I'm glad you like it thou6, thank you 😊
I don’t know how you guys fly over those areas without a bail option. It’s the worst feeling in the world when you sink alarm is starting to scream at you and you know you can’t turn back at this point😅
“C’mon, give me a thermal…please “ 😂
It's not life and death stuff, at worst it's a walk out and buy a new glider 😮
I could have landed at any point safely... the bigger issue was the retrieve. Though having looked in that valley on google afterwards, it was a driveable track, even if it was 5 miles from the nearest road!
Laying in bed at home in Dartmoor enjoying this. What does that string thing do that you pull please?
@MassiveLib sorry for missing this! I replied in another comment but in case you miss it - look at this video:

An old guy called Tomas Suchanek gave me some top secret advice once. It was 'stay high', and 'don't glide so low'.
Maybe you need to work a bit more on mastering those techniques? 😂
I do try, but my mentor isn't as helpful as your old guy Tomas. My mentor actually flies off and leaves me on the hill when I'm otherwise engaged, instead of waiting to instruct me around the course. I know, hard to believe right! 😝
@@MooSurfer you need to check what your mentor is adding to your breakfast 🤣
meeeeen.. i like you sooo much.....!,.. lol..
Awww thank you Nikos!
