3 flights (3hrs) between 5/5 & 5/6 at CLO and Dog

Video of 3 flights between 5/5 & 5/6 at Cape Lookout and Dog Mt. (Glenoma, WA)

5/5/16 (Thursday) Cape Lookout
I arrived launch around 1:00pm (high tide at 12:45 with no beach) and it was blowing about 8-10 mph winds. Much more lighter winds than we expected.   Ray Berger launched first around 2:00pm while I was hiking up and he managed to gain 1,000+ ft over launch before the thermal block happening.  So Ray ended up had 1.5+hrs good flight.  There was still a lot whitecaps out front when paraglider Jeremy (little cloud wing dealer) and I ready to launch but so weird  that there wasn't much winds at launch (2-5mph or less).  We launched about 30-45 mins after Ray and sank out quickly.  We both landed at the bailout LZ right below launch.

5/6/16 Dog Mtn (Friday)
I went to Dog Mt with Enrique and had two great flights. Topped out 1000ft over launch and total 3 hrs of air times.
