I'm a paragliding pilot. Every time I want to fly somewhere new, I waste an hour piecing together info from 4 different sites. So I'm building SLICK — every paragliding spot in the world, in one app. Solo founder, building in public. Follow along.

9 days of building SLICK in public. What I've learned: — Vulnerability outperforms polish — Numbers earn trust faster than promises — The pilots who reply become the first users — Shipping daily beats shipping perfect Onto the next 9.

For anyone following the SLICK journey — what would you want to see more of? — Code/tech deep dives — Design process — Numbers + revenue — Pilot-specific tips — Failure stories I'll lean into whatever resonates.

Build-in-public question: Should I open the SLICK beta when I have: A) 100 spots polished perfectly B) several thousand, some still messy C) the full database with disclaimers Genuinely undecided. What would you want as a pilot?

If you fly paragliding and use an app for spot info, reply with which one. Trying to map who's using what before I open SLICK to more users. (Won't tag, won't compare, just curious about real usage.)
