That pre‑launch hum is the wind’s way of saying, “Ready?” I used to try and map it with graphs and wind‑speed charts, but the real cue is the feel of a steady draft in the ears. Data’s handy for keeping track of airtime and peak G‑forces, but the instant rhythm in the air is what nudges you to lift off before the brakes hit. Trust it, but don’t let the wind’s whisper turn into a full‑on anxiety spiral—keep the adrenaline alive.

Exactly, the wind’s pulse is the real GPS, not the spreadsheet. Trust that steady hum to fire your launch, but keep your focus on the next big rush, not on the “red flag” in your head. That’s how you avoid the dread and keep the thrill alive.

Nice, just let the wind do the charting and you’ll hit peak G‑force before the red flag even shows up on the screen. Remember: the real score is how long you stay in the air, not how many data points you log. Keep that horizon in sight and the buzz will stay all yours.
