Probably some difficult exit from the heli since you lost brake control but if it manages to open up properly after that you can still steer using the weight shift and C risers (the last set of multiple lines). If it goes wrong and he has no control, he would throw his reserve parachute and land safely on the beach or the water.

@@TheGrundigg Thanks for info.

on that note, what area would you suggest as a good place to get the rust off?

For sure if you are low, or the glider is starting to auto rotate, or if you don't have substantial experience with spins and stalls then the rescue is the best option. But the target audience for this video are acro pilots who may get into twists more frequently. If you are high and stable and have stall skills, it's worthwhile to attempt to fix the twists, both to avoid the hassle of a reserve deployment and to gain those recovery skills.

It's on a selfie stick about 1.5-2m. After take off I put the stick between my legs and sit on it

Hi kris, do you think it would be dangerous to get the càmera stick tied up with a line with one manouvre like a frontal?

It is not really possible to capture the entire pilot and glider in the same frame without a very wide angle lens. Otherwise the camera would have to be mounted impractically far away, or part of the action would be out of frame. Having everything visible for clarity is more important than having an optically ideal shot.

No

@@jindrichjochec296 well thank you for your critical intellectual well thought out effort here I know this is the best you can do and hopefully someone else will clear it up for me a little bit because I'm not going to take your word for anything of all you got to say is no. But thank you for the response I've been studying a lot of these accidents and collisions and sometimes it gets in my way to understand it when I care for these people so I'll just think of you being the one hitting the ground and I'll feel a lot better while I'm studying. Thanks for the help

@@markmcgoveran6811 Yes

If it's flying you don't really need to do anything to untwist but wait, it does a pretty good job itself. The trouble is most of the time if you're twisted you're not flying straight, and you're probably stalled. In stalled flight, there's no real airflow for that trick to work, though to be honest I'm not sure if there would be enough drag to have much effect, and you would probably just end up putting accidental weightshift into the harness trying.

@@beyondsiv I love math. If your lines are twisted and come to a single point weight shift becomes irrelevant. I think my best bet might be putting my hands up get it to fly straight and throw the reserve. If you let it get bad enough that it's spinning uncontrollably you might spend the reserve up with you when you throw it.

@@markmcgoveran6811 The problem is that your weight shift can still displace the risers even while twisted, so one riser can end up lower than the other even if they converge to a point, and that weight shift offset will transmit to the glider and still induce a turn. IF you can get to straight and level flight with symmetric inputs then that's great for the low sink rate. But usually getting twisted comes with some other complications and the first priority is not allowing things to escalate into a twisted auto rotation. Until you regain some control, recovering to straight and level flight while twisted is risky and uncertain.

@@beyondsiv I love you very much. I'm not optimistic about this epsilon 9 adventure I'm going on. I am flying heavy like a gangster at the top of the weight range. When I get my ground handling better they're going to pull me right up in the sky 2000 ft and let me try to fly back home. I'm going to put my hands up and just let it fly it trim speed and try to lean back and forth with the weight shift and make great big circles in the sky to lose all my altitude. When I get 100 ft above the ground I'm going to make my approach into this giant flat field away from everybody else. I think I can't see well enough to try and do anything slow for a landing so I need to point into the wind and come in at it trim speed focus on one thing keeping those wings level don't worry about the pitch don't use the brakes keep the wings level at all cost. I'm going to put in a good mouthpiece for football to protect my teeth and unbuckle the chest strap on my harness so I can lean Way Forward and get my legs a long ways underneath me because if you're going to be dumb you better tough. I'm going to come in and trim speed into the wind and when I get close to the ground less than 1 m I'm going to jam the brakes on all the way for the flare, bite down on my mouthpiece and keep the brakes on and eat my first landing with a parachute landing fall. I certainly hope to get a feel for this landing problem during the 50 flights or so they're going to pull me up into the sky and expect me to fly back to the ground. Here's why I see this is needed. One I cannot see well enough in flight to judge a swoop landing or come in on the brakes too much facing a wind gradient and flying heavy on the wing. I don't have the perceptions yet to see if I'm going to stall or anything else all I have enough perception to do is fly all the way down at trim speed with a level wing. Mathematically I go from a transition like a pilot does to a transient a sudden change where I won't have time to get on level with my wing and I won't be able to swing I won't be able to miss my circle and not catch my dive swoop fast enough. I'm not going to screw around with the brakes and the pitch axis so I have no way to hit a Target all I have to do is step down out of the sky and a pair of shoes landing fall and roll real fast and get all the strings wound around me to kill the wing.(lol) does any of this sound remotely reasonable and do you have any suggestions or tips to make for my first landing. I love the idea of beyond s IV for somebody else but I'm trying to look beyond getting towed into the air to my first landing.

@@markmcgoveran6811 Hey Mark, it sounds like you're a very analytical guy and have really dived into the theory. My background is in engineering so I can relate to that approach. That said, there's a lot of feeling, intuition, and subjectivity in paragliding so try not to overthink it. It's great to be familiar with these ideas and build an understanding and do all the visualization, but ultimately you will have to embrace the uncertainty and unquantifiable aspects of the sport. Your instructor's job is to help you learn these skills in a safe and appropriate way, so trust in them to guide you through an appropriate progression. If you've chosen a quality school you can trust that you'll have the training you need and won't be asked to do anything you aren't ready for. Your job as a student is to be an information sponge, listen, ask clarifying questions to anything you are unclear on, and then follow your instructor's directions to the best of your ability. It's all going to be good and you'll be fine!

Make sure to share it and all the rest! Helps the algo reach more people 🙏

@@beyondsiv well I don't know what to tell you other than I'm a leprechaun American and you want the algorithm to blow up? Do you want to do some comedy I'll do the comedy you can do the serious stuff and we'll get people to watch both. I just bought a speedwing I think and a speed harness that's a little bitty seat with no board. I can hang it up in a tree out here and make videos shaking my fist at you for running me out of the air. I can hang up on a harness in my yard and make comedy videos."I was flying along minding my own Business and the guy in front of me got a twist and then he started flying backwards right at me I tried to dodge him but I went into a spiral and I landed in this tree. No matter what acrobatic move you're doing I could just cut bits of it out in my response and tell everybody it's your fault I flew into the tree again and again and again. Remember NASCAR when it was a bunch of moonshiners like Junior Johnson that everybody could love it was a roaring booming thing. When it got to be all engineers and everybody was following each other all day until the final 300 ft of the race it almost died. Now NASCAR is soap operas on Wheels they have restrictor plates so there's no way to stay in the front of everybody for the whole race because somebody will draft and ease by you somewhere. I love watching your videos but they just don't have the kind of drama you need to be a soap opera on the wing instead of a soap opera on wheels.

I actually already have a cork tutorial, as well as others! Check out the tutorial playlist on my channel.
