Looked great! Nice job of photography and editing intercuts between in-the-cockpit and outside-view. We all experience "rust" for the first flights of the year. My first wing-running of the year was poor.

Also, I watched the earlier launches with the two-pulley system where the tow-vehicle was behind the glider. Nice. That let's the driver make adjustments without waiting for a radio call.
