I will smoke some weed with u, do some gack, drink, or do watever...all goot fun
I didn't realize you had a job outside poker.

I probably will have a few light beers, and just not plan on playing seriously the next day, and see the city.

I'd love to smoke some weed at night with you, but I wouldn't plan on me doing any back, I don't plan on ever doing that again lol.

The real question is, will you go on an LSD trip with me?

are there weed shops on the Strip?

I'm hoping my gack contact is still in place when I'm there in June

That's funny because I probably will go to bed before everyone

Isn't it easy to just bring it on the plane? I know all of the people I know irl do, but it's also going from legal to legal.

I went to one close to the strip but not directly on it.

For the latter, I didn't have any luck on my last trip.

how'd i miss there was a dedicated thread for this?

unlikely i can make it but if logistics work i'll pop in, decent chance you guys won't want me giving the place a coronavirus vibe sitting down at the table and "hey guys I recently flew in from China want a sip from my flask?"

great idea! I'm sure US Customs will be fine with people bringing drugs into the country

I take people for tandem hanggliding rides. I live on a commune. I make effectively nothing doing it...I am passionate about it and love sharing it with others

67 - mans dream since the beginning of time and I get to share it with others. There is very little that I would rather do. If you ever make your way down to florida you have an open invite...my treat

Lapidator clued me in to this from the LC thread. No firm plans yet, but I generally play the Senior event, which kicks off 10 AM on June 18th. I'd usually arrive evening of 17th, leave Sunday 21st.

Assuming I play, I'd likely be free to meet up around lunchtime the 18th. I'd put me down in the 50/50 group; if it happens while I'm in town, would make.

That would be awesome. I'm sure I'll make it down there someday; thank you.

Generally when doing tandems people use an "over under harness". The pilot in command is on the bottom. It gives them more control of the glider. Here we do more of a side by side where the instructor is slightly above the student. So the student is more in the pilot in command position. The student gets a much better feel for controlling the glider and the teaching process is much quicker. However. the instructor loses a bit of authority on the glider. For a highly skilled instructor it is no biggy and the payoff is well worth it.




Here u can see the student is below me with both hands on the control bar (horizontal bar that makes up the base of control frame which looks like a triangle). He has max pitch and roll authority. I have one hand on the control bar and one hand on the down tube (vertical component of control frame) where I lose some of that authority.

Skwid,

Looks like you guys are dressed for an expedition to the north pole. What is the temperature inversion from the ground to max altitude?

Which one? I'm looking around at them, curious about your experience. I figured I'd take a car right from the airport before I check in

Cc- that pic was taken on a cold morning. We tow up to 2k feet A(bove)G(round)L(evel). Generally speaking the temp diff in the early am is negligible. Right now I go shorts t-shirt and barefoot

Rick - its super comfy. Kind of like laying on a hammock

Yep, that's what I did. I took a car directly from the airport and went to Reef. It was expensive compared to home, but the variety wasn't half bad and the quality was decent.

OMG, I just scrolled through this whole thread. I wish I could get some of the time back

I'm a 51- (soon to be 52 in Vegas at the end of March) year-old woman, and I probably party and drink more than any of you. I drink at least a bottle of wine very night -- and two+ on weekends. In Vegas, it's more, and I'm rarely in bed before 4 a.m.

I'm going to try to make it the first week of June. Put me (and my husband) down as tentative. I'd love to meet you guys.
