El Cinco de Drinko and other fun

I made it out to the DZ for a couple hours on Cinco de Mayo. I missed out on the pinata and didn't participate in any of the drinking activities, but I did get in a hop and pop before heading home to do some homework. 

Today I went out for the weekly Thursday night fun jumps and went up on all three loads. The first two were hop and pops again. I've been having a lot more fun playing around under canopy. The winds were blowing strong, so my landings were really nice... although I was a little bit short of my target both times. My third jump was from 10k. I practiced flattening out my track and turning with my legs. Although the uppers were still blowing hard, there was a lot less wind on the ground this time. I was right on target and had another nice landing. Something was a little off about my flare... ten feet off the ground my canopy started dipping to the right (turbulence? uneven toggle pressure?), but I was able to compensate for it with the left toggle. All in all it was a great night.
