  • @TheOttarocker

    Very nice video! But i think that one should fly some full stalls before searching and releasing the stall point - the danger of overshooting and falling into the wing is very high (yes, speaking from experience, even if i missed the wing ;D) if you release just too late. Meanwhile if you pull a full stall and do not release before the glider comes back over your head the wing will most likely not have enough energy to overshoot enough for falling into it. Touching the stall point is an exercise which feels easy if it works but can get extremely nasty if you screw it up. By practicing pitch control nobody is prepared to stop a strongly overshooting stalled wing.

    • @MaxMartini22
      @MaxMartini22  8 лет назад +2

      Thanks, and thank you very much for your input! I agree: if too heavy handed any stall practice can end horribly!
      It is a very delicate topic to talk about what method is better, I understand your point but it is only effective if you practice over water with rescue boat because even if it is only a simple fullstall there is still a lot to go wrong.
      I learned the exact same way I'm showing in the video and did around 150 prestalls before atempting my first backfly/fullstall.

      Merci Justin, I'm glad you like it. I intentionally didn't mention practicing over water because I think it is unnecessary and expensive. When you practice in this order and have enough altitude over the box (min. 300) you won't need any special environment.

    Hey Max, I was just thinking about doing an how to full stalls for beginners. And then I saw your video which was
    way better than I would have done. It is very well explained and I like the exercises that you gave. Only one thing worried me tho, when I tried to find my stall point last year, it ended in a full stall and I wasn't mentally prepared for it. Of course I asked ALOT of questions before doing so, but still wasn't really expecting that. Luckily I managed to get out of it well. So my question is: Wouldn't it be a good idea that the person start by the full stall before doing any of this(Except pitch pendulum wich I consider no.1 step.), just to be sure that the person will react well if something goes wrong?

    • @MaxMartini22
      @MaxMartini22  8 лет назад +2

      Hey Samuel, I´m really glad you like it!
      Well, to answer your question: No, the purpose of those exercises were to prepare for a Fullstall. Pitch pendulum to get comfortable with the surge (fullstall exit), min. velocity to stabilize before stall, and last but not least stall point release shows you max. brake course. When you mastered those steps fullstalls and deepstalls will be easier and safer.
      Do you have a video of your stall training or maybe from that actual incident?

  • @MrSzaroczek
    @MrSzaroczek 8 лет назад +1

    Man, this is great, thank you a lot!!! Thanks to you I've realized the stall phenomenon can be contained, controlled and practiced. Just one question, why you advice to put the legs under the seat when exercising those things, please?

    • @MaxMartini22
      @MaxMartini22  8 лет назад +1

      Good question! It has to do with body symmetry and centrifugal force...
      ...when practicing stalls you have to make sure your body weight is symmetric, so when you accidentally start turning while stalling you will quickly realize that your hands/brakes are not even.
      Also if you start spinning for some reason and your legs are stretched out you increase the risk of riser twist because your body takes longer to follow the rotation of the wing.
      I´m happy that you enjoyed this little tutorial!

    • @MrSzaroczek
      @MrSzaroczek 8 лет назад

      That absolutely makes sens, thanks again! By the way, I wonder if you ever realize how significant and remarkable your "little tutorial" is...? Stall for what I've experienced so far from interactions with other, ever quite experienced pilots, is ONLY some scary thing you better avoid by all means. You prove you can get familiar with it, control it and even... USE it for you advantage - this is bold! And I strongly believe there already are, or will be, human beings whose lives you've saved not being aware of it! I'm so happy I've come against this video. Thank God for you, man. :-) P.S. If you have some more of this kind of paragliding skill, just take your pain and record it and put it all on RUclips, please!

      Man, I don't, know, maybe B'stall, collapses (frontal, partial), deep spiral, veeeery big "Big-ears", because I've heard they can be really big... Maybe how to safely land with strong wind which takes you even back against the ground... Maybe some tricks for ground-handling... Anything you are as good at as your are with stalls!. And I'm going to be honest; since I'm an enthusiast of ground-handling I'd LOVE to have some more detailed instructions on how to get into this "back-flight" when ground-handling the wing!!! That would be GREAT! ;-)

    Falling into the canopy, what a nightmare? If that were to ever happen, what should I do? Try to find what is up as I fall and throw my reserve in that direction? Thank you very much for this. I'm carefully studying this to decide whether I want to pursue this sport or not. I like hang-gliding too but the landings and take-off's seem more dangerous. All the best to you from Sweden.

    • @PhilippeLarcher

      I've read: exit the canopy first, follow sewing along the chord (shortest route). While falling put your hands in front. See where you're falling so it's easier to exit.

    • @MaxMartini22
      @MaxMartini22  2 года назад

      "Full Stall" is typically used in siv, where you fully dismount the wing, almost impossible to recover without stabilizing in a backfly first. A Stall by definition only means that the wing "stopped" producing lift. In paragliding we have many stall configurations for example pre-stall, deep-stall, etc.

    I'm still doing ground handling. I'm stuck with that for an extra few weeks. I have decided that when I land the first time after they told me up in the air all I'm going to be able to do is unbuckle my chest strap lean far forward. Come screeching in a trim speed with as much parasitic drag from standing up and spread my feet and legs wide and when I get one meter off the ground or less I'm going to pull the breaks on full into a flare just as deep as I can push them. I just don't have the talent to do anything else at this point. Focus on roll axis. I have a giant landing field so anywhere I touch in as fine as long as I can get my altitude right and slam them brakes on hard so I don't have to have any fine motor control for my brakes access controls or anything it's just flying level slam something in. I'm flying on the heavy end of the wing and I'm wondering is this going to work?

    • @MaxMartini22
      @MaxMartini22  Год назад

      Hey, the idea is to be as symmetric as possible and recognize the stall on the brake pressure while minimizing the risk by flying as as possible

    • @markmcgoveran6811
      @markmcgoveran6811 Год назад

      @@MaxMartini22 you left out one word as()as possible. I'm at payload not a pilot. If I come in fast moving in a straight line add a 15 degree angle of incidence. I can throw the breaks down hard both hands as fast as possible. Instead of having a skillful transition like you do I want to have a transient like a math professor does. I'm going to have a football mouthpiece and as soon as I flare those brakes I'm going to hold them down no matter what.
      that's what the instructor said. He said that you had nothing to fear but fear itself at that point and if you held your hands down you would swing out and down and forward and you better be laying way out to get your legs under you so you don't land on your heels or your back. I think if you come in fast and you commit hard and quick and you bite your mouthpiece there will not be time for any asymmetry to occur. I like to stand up for the 100 ft and below. If you stand up it lowers the trim speed and tips the nose down. More tension on the lines too. I'm new at this I'm working on my ground handling and I'm scared shiftless of trying to do the pitch axis and the yaw axis, I think only the roll axis and and a mathematical transient flare hard is all I'm going to be able to do.

    I think you have the safety thing backwards 6 ft off the ground is nowhere to practice anything. If you're six feet off the ground and you're almost stalled you are in trouble. If you get a little pitch instability you will swing into the ground hard trying to figure out how to do them tricks six feet off the ground. If you're going to practice these things safely wait until you've got a couple thousand feet altitude so you have time for problems to resolve themselves.

      @@MaxMartini22 I watched the whole video I watched a lot of other videos. When you're flying close to the ground anywhere near a stall and you were flying into a wind near stall speed, you are asking to fall, any little bit of turbulence and a little bit of wind shift could take your air speed and drop you. When you get close to the ground you need to fly fast so you can dominate the air currents that would trip you up at stall speed.

      @@MaxMartini22 I don't understand the question? At the end. I do understand the physics of flight floating along there to low speed a couple of meters off the ground in a para glider is a risky idea. You may get by with it a few times if you're close to the ocean and you're getting that nice laminar sea breeze. Anywhere else you are begging for trouble.

      @@MaxMartini22 I would guess you made this video for organ donors. Not that it matters who you made the video for when you're that close to the ground on something as light and sensitive as these paragliders you need to bring on some speed so you're dominating not getting collapsed because the friction near the ground causes a lot of weird wind currents that are hard to predict and easy to explain.

    Your video is nicem, but can be missleading. Like using the minimal speed for landing can be very dangerous - many pilots have overbraked their gliders doing so!

      Thank you very much for your constructive comment, I really appreciate it!
      It should be obvious that to do a proper flare the approach is at max. velocity and close to the ground you pull quickly the brakes to min. velocity position. (It not to a stall like many would think, you touch the ground before the glider stalls)
      But in fact with a constant 15km/h wind you can reduce your glide by holding min. velocity until the ground. It's totally doable especially with bigger wings with bigger glideratio. Just be carefull to not stall accidentally and/or accelerate at the wrong moment.

      Sure! I understand. Your videos are just great for talented pilots with good understanting of flight mechanics... keep your great job!
      Fly safe and hopefully we will meet under cloudbase!

    Im not even a beginner (yet) and I wonder how a normal looking guy like you uses a XS B- or C-Wing. I mean you don't look like you weigh only 60 kg. Could you elaborate why you chose to ride your glider that top-heavvy. I know it's stable and stuff but does it really get that extreme? Don't you want some lower sinkrate as well?

    • @MaxMartini22
      @MaxMartini22  5 лет назад

      I flew it with 90 kg take off weight, 15 kg over the limit.
      Flying like that you get more direct handling and the wing flies faster.

      @@MaxMartini22 Thanks for your answer Max, my flight trainer and all friends strongly disapprove such behavior. Isn't it extremely uncautious to topple the manafacturers limits? I don't know if you use if for acro, but if you don't i hope i can learn from your insights. Your last statement didn't fully convince me yet.

      @MaxMartini22  5 лет назад

      Every paraglider, that is certified with EN or DHV, is designed to withstand up to 8 times the maximum load. So flying it 15 kg over the top won´t influence the structural integrity of the wing, although it will change completely the behavior, which is not recommended for rookies and beginners!

      @@MaxMartini22 I appreciate your input a lot as I see other people look up to you as their role-model. I feel very confused in my research about a clever way of progressing in this sport. I feel like I will be flying A LOT more than most people who have little time, so I wonder what the right Glider could be for me? My job doesn't make a lot of money and thus I fear being stuck with a "lame duck beginner Glider" for many years. Is this something to be worried about? At this point, I think I should get a S-sized wing, so I end up close to the maximum weight. Can you name three models you think are appropiate for me?
