Geoff writes: a classic Santa Brigida day, and a nice end to Wayne’s holiday. Strong Tramuntana forecast, so the only place likely to work was Santa Brigida. Loads of big wave in the sky as we set off (and in fact when we arrived) but in the air it was ok. The first flights were a bit lumpy, the thermals were only just starting to form. So we top landed, and had some lunch. Marc turned up, launched, and we followed him. Smoother, liftier, easy to get high and push out into the valley. Another Marc arrived, Marc from Ribes, who we hadn’t seen since last year, and he also flew.  

Towards the end of the day, the thermals started to die off, and it switched to mostly dynamic, ridge, lift.

So a great day, followed by a quick sandwich, before dropping Wayne off at the airport. Good forecast for the rest of the week, though we have a fair amount of work to do.
