Eventful day with very strong conditions

Yesterday gave us strong lee side thermals at take of (PN), bringing the wind on but being very turbulent around the take off area.  Only 6 of us flew, of those Andy land on the high ground south of Villatoro, Maxi threw his reserve which got lodged in his glider which he was then able to fly down.  Phillip and I had uneventful landings in the Avila valley and Sebastian flew to the N, of Avila landing because of the storms.   Evening flight was very crossed so just some flew and did a downwind glide towards Villafranca.
