#225 AMA with Malin Lobb- C Class 2 Liners, First bivvy in the Alps, When are you expedition Ready?

Time for another Ask Me Anything show! In this episode we tackle three questions that came in from our Patreon supporters. The first was to go deep on the new class of C wing 2-Liners. To answer this I sat down (virtually) with SIV guru Malin Lobb, who sees these wings in all kinds of configurations in his SIV courses. How do you know you’re ready for a 2-liner? Any downsides? How do they behave differently than a 3-liner and what do pilots stepping up for the first time need to be aware of? And a lot more great advice on piloting in general. Then I take on a question that came in about doing a bivvy in the Alps for the first time. Where to go, what time of year, how to connect with other pilots. It’s a big arena and can be daunting for your first trip! And finally I tackle a great question about assessing when you’re ready to take on something big. A new line, a bivvy, an expedition. When are you ready? Never! So go!
