In celebration of the 25th running of the Torrey Pines Gulls International Hand Launch Glider Festival, I'm posting my one hour documentary film on the event, filmed in 2000, for the soaring world to enjoy. In fact the contest we filmed was to be the last one to incorporate the Javelin launch technique, and you can see in the film a few pioneering competitors tip launching the first DLG designs. By next years contest, nearly every pilot had changed over to the discus launch technique, and the handlaunch glider took a giant design leap forward. There’s a special feature at the end of the film where the pioneers of the discus launch technique discuss how the spin launch developed and how DLG glider designs developed. This film will only be online for a short time.
