That's sort of my every approach. Do some fast turns and then get everything lined up.
And the end, you could have given a little more power. A little more power, a little more brake, it'll slow you down a lot more. Cool. Yep, that's, that's what we need to do. Then just keep it over your head, hands up as soon as you're on the ground, and run, run, get up in the air. Cool. Feel good?
Yeah, yeah.
Does that help at all?
Every time. It's just understanding like the height, like, yeah, yeah.
Keep doing it. That was awesome, man. So, Zach, you want to talk to Marla? Sure. Um, how is the bump?

I think I'll just fly it when it gets a little bit calmer.
Do you want me to put my cage somewhere else, like back that way?
Yeah, maybe. I don't know how much I want to climb, it's too bumpy. If anything, I'll just fly when it gets a little bit calmer.
I don't think it's anything to worry about, it's just you just have to have the confidence. It's not bad, yeah.
