2 Gliders Hit Trees After Takeoff: Instructor Reacts!

Doing your checks is critical. Not getting distracted is hard. Here's a few videos to demonstrate what happens if you get it wrong, and miss your air brakes check.
I also tell the tale of when I left my brakes out during a contest launch in Australia.
Shoutout to @BeckiandChris for the helicopter checks:
