A fast landing as well as a bit of a drag for another balloon at the Women's European Hot air ballooning Championships in Drenthe the Netherlands - September 2015.
Absolutely perfect job on landing. Touched the ground right at the beginning, perfect and safe position, pulling the rope and not stopping until complete stop. Your video is a very good tool for proper fast wind landing 👍
I like the landing stance-- crouched low in the basket -- and the non-stop arm-over-arm venting once completely comitted to the landing; non-stop arm-over-arm venting; I'll show to my students. :)
Turning vents aren't necessary. I hit the ground on the leading edge & it's such a small basket & balloon that I never land 'the wrong way'. Turning vents are unnecessary unless you have a larger basket & or passengers.
@@chloe2902 Yes you are right I am sorry true they are not necessarily important and can be considered as mechanical complexity in smaller baskets.You made a great landing bytheway and looks like a very beautiful zone to fly.Thanks a lot for letting us to watch the action from the cockpit also.Safe skies.
That red rope is for the 'rapid deflation system' it pulls opens the parachute at the top of the balloon from the middle and releases all the hot air. I'm pulling it all in so that the hot air escapes quickly and that will hopefully stop me quicker as it was quite a fast flight.

Yes that was very good. Too bad about the crop damage from the other balloon.
Am I the only one who's watching this because they've booked an air balloon ride?
Hope you enjoy it!
How about the other balloon tearing up the crops to the left of her?
Best video iv ever seen. 10/10 film of the year
Why lie?
1:34 I imagine the farmer face the day he would harvest his crops when he see those weird lines in his field XD
americans would make fake news on UFO
I like your landing, well done

I didn't know that balloons land like planes.
When it's fast they do!
@@chloe2902 very impressive👌🏼
Perhaps a rope and anchor would help
Nice
💖💖💖
Very nice landing.Would be better if you had the turning vents but anyways it's a small basket.

She adds heat then vents. Ha
What's the rope you're pulling at the end for?

@@chloe2902 Thanks
Hahahaha!!!
It almost gives the impression that she knows what she's doing.
Almost?
Nice job!
