  • Training acro can result into throwing your rescue, and my number 15 was one hell of a rescue, but fortunately it was a pretty safe one since I was super high and had all the time I needed in order not to be scarred.
    Remember that there are no shame in throwing your rescue and at failing.

    Thank you for posting a "fail" video. It's nice to see even the best pilots make a mistake at times...

    Thank you for sharing vid Theo. I was worried about the title, but I was relieved because the video was uploaded! I'm always rooting for you.

    That shoe! As soon as a saw the reserve deployment and knew you were ok, I had to go back and make sure it was a shoe that I saw! Adds a little laugh to an otherwise scary situation! Glad you are well!

    All in one fluid motion, perfect save...& well caught on camera.

    Oh I was so worried when I saw the title! And you don't even have a scratch :D I really enjoy watching your video tutorials as I have gotten my pilot license recently :)

    ça aurait été cool de faire un rapide debrief sur ce qu'il s'est mal passé et comment tu en es arrivé là :)

    Hi Theo,
    we are happy to see that #15 worked as well as #1-14. Still, we would prefer if you get along without anymore reserve deployments (even thoug we know it is unlikely).
    Interestng to see that you could land on the beach thanks to the Beamer.
    Wishing you all the best - your mates from the NOVA-team

      It would be cool to see Theo do Acro tricks on the Ion, Mentor & Sector. Are they any good for freestyle? (Within the certified weight range). I'd love to see (rythmic?) SAT, Loop, Misty & Heli with those gliders.

    Why did it happen?

  • @ukulelefatman
    @ukulelefatman 2 года назад

    3 to 4 seconds. (this is Theo's idea of "all the time in the world") : ) Well done. Do you carry two reserve chutes? Did you find your shoe?

    • @dibidabi90
      @dibidabi90 2 года назад

      Yes he does. For acro you have to carry 2, some pilots even carry 3 reserves.

    ça serait pas une bonne idée de mettre la gopro sur scratch pour ces cas là ?

    • @theoflies
      @theoflies  2 года назад +1

      Non pas forcément car l'adhésif gopro n'est pas très puissant donc si un suspente ce prend vraiment dedans la gopro saute (ça m'est déjà arrivé) et c'est pour ça que je ne l'assure pas, comme ca je suis sur que je ne me fais pas étrangler.

    every paragliding trainer I have met since I installed a gopro on my helmet told me to remove it because it is dangerous in case that the lines get trapped, and thus I did remove it from the helmet and put it on the knee and on the front container

    • @gcm4312
      @gcm4312 2 года назад +1

      Though I agree with the added risk, I have a hunch that wouldn't have changed the outcome much in this case... he went through the wing

    • @theoflies
      @theoflies  2 года назад +6

      Actually putting the gopro on a helmet is not a bad thing as soon as you don't secure it with a line. The sticker of the gopro will just be pulled off if a line catches it. I speak from experience. Therefore it's not dangerous but you have to accept to loose a gopro if it happens.

    • @theoflies
      @theoflies  2 года назад +5

      And yes in this case it would not matter my body was in the lines not the gopro :)

      @@theoflies Planning on putting a Insta360-cam on a stick between my legs, sometimes in one of my hands. I have to secure it with a line though. Is this a no-go? How should I do it?

    That's not a "rescue". It's a recovery.
