Don't use slips to bleed of energy (kinetic) in a glider..
use slips to loose extra altitude (potential energy)

glider training helped me w/slips...we used them a lot
to "bleed off energy" on approach...always better to have
too much, than too little.......

Absolutely! Closing in on 900 hours and they are just as fun as when
I learned them! And as you can see from the video, still
learning :-)))))
