Self launching:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMegFouZcas    yesterday in puffy conditions the RISE kept rolling onto it’s leading edge ... I found that a 5 pound rock on the leech (back edge) just by the first strut held it down nicely ... On launch I gently pulled on the bottom steering line to ‘trip’ the rock, then pulled the top steering line for the usual launch ... Cool
