USHPA Magazine Toss

I recently threw out a bunch of old magazines. I, like a lot of people, was keeping my old issues. I liked the pictures and once I read the articles, I kept them. Never read them again. Just kept them and cluttered up my house.

So, yesterday, when I was getting my hair cut, I looked at the table full of US, PEOPLE, and Glamour magazines and thought, "Man, I would really like to see a Hang Gliding Magazine sitting there." I'd probably pick it up and read it even if I'd already read it.

I don't know, maybe the dentist's office would take a couple too. ???

I've been known to plant a few of mine in the past. It's definitely more interesting than a Cosmo, even if you're not in the sport.

Based on this thread's title, I thought the topic was going in a different direction. Like "Flip, Flip, Toss". Given that it's now just a PG-promotional mag, I would be embarrassed for others to see it.

HG gets a lot more exposure on-line, through websites like this. Thanks, SG! :thumbsup:

Well, there IS that. I guess we could tear out all the PG articles and Pics and leave the two HG pages in there. :wink:

That's perfect!

Wasn't one of the Will's Wing guys on here a while back talking about trying to start a twitter campaign or something like that? Maybe it was Instagram or another one of those social media things. I can't remember.

I could not in good conscience inadvertently encourage someone to get into paragliding by putting the USHPA magazine in a public place.
