Longer Forcast by JMA

Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) said that this spring would come earlier and be warmer. However, it will be worse weather than an ordinary year. I just hope better flight condition. Anyway, I should put away my ski and snowboard earlier in this season.

A Sprinkling of Snow

Today, I had flight in Shishiku Area. It was sometimes a light snow. Chilled air and snow flake braced myself.

This is secret.

I sometimes fell fear of heights. So, I have never gained more than 700 m from the launch. I do not know why plus 700 m is my limit. ;-)

Spring Wind

I found two paragliders which fly in Shishiku Area. It should be too strong West wind. Anyway, I did not join them, because I was on the way to Sena-kogen to enjoy snowboading. There, it was strong Northwest wind. I guess that it would be severe flight condition.

Less Snowy

It is cold in this winter as usual, but we have less snow. We could see surface of the earth, while it must be white land in February. It will come spring without any more snow, won't it?

The First Flight in 2009

It was the first holiday to fly in Shishiku Area. I got flight for 40 min. while I just kept full glide and controled accelerator, because it was strong South wind.

Spring is coming.... Maybe

The weather chart says that it has become spring type. I am looking forward to flying with my paraglider in spring sky.
