@@tobiasbrunner4720 why so? It makes the landscape not scroll and get blurry basically, your eye compensate for the rotation. You can train on the ground.
Well that helped me quite a bit. As I'm learning this stuff constantly worried about a total collapse. That certainly gives me reassurance. What I'm misunderstanding is debunking the braking feathering I'm reading on Superfly paragliding School they say they're debunking the carry your speed into your landing. And I think you explained it one versus the other but I don't think I really understood it. So my teacher the other day on the tandem did exactly what you said we slowed down tons right as we reach the edge of our landing field then we speed it up again really fast when we were just a foot from the ground and then he flared and I landed perfectly on my feet. But then I'm watching the superfly video on feathering the brakes and I'm watching them land without doing that technique by just keeping the glider inflated in the feathering process but they slowed way down and never speeded up right before landing. So again which is it?
Oh yeah I forgot to say thanks for these great videos I'm trying to decide if I want to do this or not. I loved my tandem flights and especially when the hawk flew with us. I'm an endurance athlete multi-sport mountain biker extreme distances CrossFit lifter and also mixed martial artists for 40 years. But I'm also 70 years old and really not a big fan of losing 6 months with a broken leg considering there's not that many shopping days till Christmas.
Thats why Sheesh Kebab is my favourite, helps when I really worry about hunger. Freakin bursted out of laughing on the train when I heard this magic world. :D
@Seth Tucker just the other day someone did a 200km XC flight on a 22m mustache, and the have prototype larger ones specifically to replace normal PG's, so I wouldn't be so sure if I were you, since people already are thermaling them...
@@bikerdude923 Obviously, I don't mean in an absolute sense. It's just that they don't really offer major benefits for thermalling or XC. Great toy for screwing around on the Dune? Sure.
Take it to the next level in ruclips.net/video/m83veg3R1nk/видео.html
Really admire the instructor can fly while talking!! What a great demonstration of multitasking! It makes the flying seem so easy!
Thanks, now i finally know why my turns are so bad in a thermal!
Glad R2D2 was with us on this one
Greg goes so deep into it in this one! Awesome
Greg...this is an awesome video....simply excellent - thank you very much
Love it ! What is the model of the camera you use when you fly please ? Thank you 🙏
Thank you so much sir
Great info, thanks Greg!
Hi Greg
Where is that flying site?
Tips to where to look during a spiral? Wing tip?
yes, inside wing tip, just like in thermaling.
Fixed point in the landscape every 90 °, from one side to the other side of the wing, then next item.
@@PhilippeLarcher really? that would drive me crazy. but whatever works for you.

does the collapse advice apply to sketchy takeoff? (close to the ground)

He called it combat landing in his video there or something like that could you explain the discrepancy by the two techniques and landing?

What is making that piping sound in your voice recording?
Muito bom

Really helpful! 🙏🏻
Glad you think so!
Where is this flying site, Greg?
If you get high 1st then the thermals will not be intimidating.😂😂😂
Don't fly stoned. Water makes better Ballast 😂😅
❤
👍🏻👍🏻
👍
🙏👍
Don't get too used to this advice. The mustache is going to change all of the defaults.
No one is going to be thermalling in a mustache.

I would feel safer under a full beard tbh

No way people would prefer fly the moustache for xc in terms of performance, fun yes, but no where near as effective as two liner.
