- Saturday 9th of July flight From East point Park to Balmy Beach. I forgot to turn on my camera on launch, therefor I used the initial footage of my second flight to Scarborough bluffs performed 1H40 later.
Hi Titus! This was an insane flight. I never imagined flying from there to the beaches would be possible.
I recently got my P2 from Freedom Flight School in Lumby, BC. Also, this week I had my paragliding gear finally delivered after a 3 month wait!
I live in Toronto and would love to check out east point park when there are other pilots around. I've never done ridge soaring, so this would be a new experience for me.
Is there a group you guys use to organize? If so, I would love to be a part of it.
Thanks ahead of time!
Hello there, glad you liked it, it’s not beginners friendly, make sure there is someone there before flying to get guidance. There is an Ontario paraglider chat on whatsapp: chat.whatsapp.com/GX8hwTuon0rBK9p1rMk8g4. See you there :) !
Engineered redundancy biodegradable parachute cords and canopies! 😊 Bonne chance!

Please be careful of the “major attractors”, also. Those “!” exclamation marks are an example of a pretty tough one in the aviation game.
Fantastic video! Thank you!
great flight. the air looked pretty laminate. google maps showed close to 10 miles distance traveled.
wow that a great flight Mate how many Klm was that? The condition look perfect Well done
Hello Xavier, it was a 16km flight. the conditions where just perfect indeed. This is a rare flight to achieve in Toronto, even more rare in summer :)! all the best
hi TitusIV when or what time do you normally go at East point I want to watch you lived when you taking off? Iam curious how hard it is and what it takes to learn the sports first hand info from you? I hope youll read my message I also subscribed on your channel I hoped it will grow bigger and have more views and inspires us to do these sports? I went to Eastpoint this morning but no one there maybe because its about to rain.
Hello there, unfortunatly you can't choose the when and time you want to fly. This sport is completly dependent on weather. You can check Windy for weather predictions at EP or this link www.ecowitt.net/home/share?authorize=PJ3HYP to know the current wind strengh and direction at EP. In order for us to fly, the wind needs to be constantly between 18-24km/h, not gusting over 35 and between 100 to 155 degrees for the East East Point take off as seen on the video. For the South East point take off we fly between 155 to 245 degrees. So if you keep an eye open on these conditions you should manage to see us. Also we don't fly when there are thunderstorm warnings or rain forcast.
@@TitusIV where in Scarborough can I practice ground handling or kiting?
@@TitusIV where is located the second take off & how to get there?
@@OttawaParagliding The second take off is visible at 3:06 in my video, you can see 2 persons seating at the edge. Before I reach it you can see a trail going there, it starts from the parking next to the first take off.
@@TitusIV thank you
