I just think i'm too old and in bad physical condition, now, but how I enjoy flying, gliding, some years ago! I'm 73 YO now, and I miss gliding, but it's all over now !. You, lucky friends, always able to fly, have a little think for me, and I wish you nives flights !. Be safe, and enjoy long years of pleasure !... Charles.
Thank you C9 for these condensed launch analyses. I think we can all learn a lot from these launches. Especially from the starts that are not quite perfect. One thing I personally learned last season: Backward starts are not always the best technique. You have to practice both forward and reverse starts to be able to choose the right technique for the current conditions. Only when you have trained both can you really choose freely.
Thank you for your comment! Yes there are so many takeoff techniques, and each one has its strenghts for various conditions. The more you know, the safer you become.
Probably I'll do one in the future 😅👍 this summer I collected lots of material. For the meantime you can watch these compilations 😁 >> ruclips.net/video/PCSDu5kd3Cc/видео.html ruclips.net/video/TlaCFTOcZPo/видео.html
90% of the people in this video skip the CONTROL PHASE... just run and hope for the best... thats is how accidents happen. NEVER skip the control phase !!!!
I'm not shure if it's 90% But you are right of course, control phase is very important! This video doesnt show how it should be done, it just shows reality.
Thank you for your comment! Your are right that there is a lot to improve in many takeoffs here! However, there is not a single trainee in this video. They are all fully licenced pilots. If they were trainees, I think they would do better. Why? Because trainees do practice, they know it's important to try to get better. This is something pilots tend to forget once they got licenced. Some of them are just happy if they manage to get airborne somehow, forgetting about the fact they are relying on luck to at least some degree, and that it needs some small efford to improve with every launch.
Each pilot has his own individual ground handling and take off style. I usually try to do several seconds stop between wing rising and takeoff moment to be sure that it is safe to take off and no one pilot fly close to me.
Nice video enjoyed the entire thing! I'm new to paragliding and so I wonder, it looks like most pilots are too hard on their breaks as they start, and run against the wing to start. It seems like less break would be more comfortable, easier to fly off.
you're probably right I'm new too, but as I understand it from very explicit instructions from top pros (live training, videos, articles, books, and FFVL exam material), the proper brake sequence after inflation is - control phase: stop the surge, risers should be 90° from the SLOPE (not from vertical) - acceleration phase: (progressive) hands to the pulleys, progressive loading of the wing, progressive acceleration - takeoff: once the lift and loading are enough (this depends of the wind), gentle brake to "flare" off the slope Mixing up those 3 phases is suboptimal, and there seem to be a lot of this in the compilation I'll quote Chrigel: "in most activities you train a lot, in pg people want to fly but dont want to train"
When the wing comes above your head, you need a certain amount of break to sync its speed with yours. The calmer you inflate the wing, the less break you need, which is a good thing, because then its less likely to lift you of the ground involuntary. Still in most cases its ok to use like 50 to 70 % of brake, which gives you time for checking if everything is ok and for the decission for takeoff or abort. Once you start accelerating, you should release the breake slowly as you increase your speed, but keep some little pressure so you can feel what is going on and can react if the wing overshoots for instance. Still, every launch is different and there might be some variations needed. Practicing ist the key to success and progression. The best thing to do is go ground handling and kiting your wing in various conditions on flat or slightly increasing fields. Its the best training and also lots of fun! Yes, some of the pilots here really shoud do that too. Or better still: Anyone should practice ground handling, as you can allways improve your skills, regardless what level you already reached! The sky is the limit ;)
tres interessant ! it had been nice to insert the site names....they are so attractive! i only recognized Castelluccio , Cornizzolo , Canazei , ifonche, Kronplatz....colli san fermo?
Really nice to see so many lunches in quick succession, but so many are really sloppy. Won't wait for parachute, hands allower, jumping to start???, but nice to learn too, some are really nice. But it bothers me that so many fly with sloppy starting tehnike. Are those mostly trainees?

Because its not working. They tried it in the early days. In case of turbulence, the wing will not collaps, but it can shoot very fast in unpredictable positions, leading to severe accidents. The collaps of the wing actually is not a bug, its a feature, it stops the wing in strong turbulences. Even though you allways try to prevent the wing from collapsing, when it happens its easy to handle in most cases if you did your homework. Anyways, if you have a big collapse, its a sign for 1) you are flying in too turbulent air 2) you need more training to fly your wing proper 3) you are flying a wing that is too demanding and you shoud step down to a more save / beginner wing, or 4) more than one of this factors.

Yes, he did. Fortunately he resisted the comon reaction to cling to the harness but did the only thing that most likely saves your life in this situation, which is to put up the arms completely in order to let go the harness and the glider before you left the ground. After that, he was standing there quietly, looking back at his glider for several minutes, because he immediately understood how close he had been to a fatal incident.

First ever RUclips video I favourited was a base jumping video with just some great progressive music. Love this too much.
Awesome, thank you!
I love takeoff ! When the magic happen. And also a instant resume of pilot skill, sensitivity.
Your are so right! Thank you for your comment! ✌️😊
Nice to see 100s of launches and the do’s and don’ts
Glad you enjoy it! :)
Nice videos from different locations. Safe fly to all gliders.
Two of my favourite things. Drum and bass and paragliding 😃 🪂
Three favorite things then👍🏼👍🏼Saluti 🍻🥂
@@TheMechas56 hahaha i suppose so! Happy flying 🍻
I'm thinking I need landing compilations now :D

Great video ! For us still improving our technique this is brilliant. Well done.
Great to hear! Thank you youtischia! :)
Totally enjoyed this (totally addicted!) Thanks for the fix!
Thank you, I'm glad you like it. Did you check out the other Kaleidoscopes?
Let me re-introduce you to my good friend - Mr. Groundhandling. If your launch sucks - it's probably because you've been ghosting him.
Yes, he's a really handy guy! ;D

you are welcome, and thanks for your comment! :)
My Brave Lovely teenager,. second flier. God bless you.
Super Video und der Sound ist ganz nach meinem Geschmack!
Danke, freut mich! :)
Why dont people kite for a second before launching? they're always in a hurry
Most in the video are beginners

@@Avrora707 it shows and practices control
Because they don't know how to kite 😂

Binge watching material. Thank you
Welcome! :)

Great launches, so many to watch very much enjoyed.
Thanks so much!
Magnífico vídeo !!!!!
That's gotta be fun!
Лепота и красота 👍😍
20:50 very dangerous take off. That pilot was extremely close to get ass fracture😁
Thanks for the Vds...
Glad you like them!
Nice compilation!
Thanks a lot!
Super
Wow very good compilation
Thank you very much!

Very good, they are all present in this video.
Some weeks ago I inserted the locations in the subtitles. Check it out ;)
37:06 most interesting start.
37:51 long awaited actual controlled backward launch.
Hehe, thank you for your comment! :)
Awesome !
great

Yea.!
There are people who take off and then put their feet in the bag. Are they cold?
Question: why do paraglider not have a rigid - yet light-weight - structure at the front to prevent the sail collapsing in case of wind turbulence?
Because its not working. They tried it in the early days. In case of turbulence, the wing will not collaps, but it can shoot very fast in unpredictable positions, leading to severe accidents. The collaps of the wing actually is not a bug, its a feature, it stops the wing in strong turbulences. Even though you allways try to prevent the wing from collapsing, when it happens its easy to handle in most cases if you did your homework.
Anyways, if you have a big collapse, its a sign for 1) you are flying in too turbulent air 2) you need more training to fly your wing proper 3) you are flying a wing that is too demanding and you shoud step down to a more save / beginner wing, or 4) more than one of this factors.

Song name begining at 17:50? PLS, must have this masterpiece
BTW EPIC VIEWS!
Love the video
Sorry, I can't tell you that. Its a mixtape I used for this video and I don't have the tracklist...
Thank you very much, I'm happy you enjoy it! :)
37:02 epic moment! :D
Name of the Wing in the video cover? The green, White black and Pink Wing? Thx
The brand is Sky Paragliders, a czech manufacturer. The model I think is a Anakis sky-cz.com/en/anakis-3
From the guy in Norma they should immediately take the licence and he should play golf 🙂
Everyone can get better with some training 😉🤙 I always thought golf was only invented for us so we have some nice landing sites 🤣

Welcome to Nepal bro
❤️👍

👍também achei! Tranquilo demais!

Yes, he did. Fortunately he resisted the comon reaction to cling to the harness but did the only thing that most likely saves your life in this situation, which is to put up the arms completely in order to let go the harness and the glider before you left the ground. After that, he was standing there quietly, looking back at his glider for several minutes, because he immediately understood how close he had been to a fatal incident.

😀👍👍
10:23 is that in Sillian?
Yes, that's Stalpe in Sillian! Maybe, if I finde some time, I'm gona prepare some subtitles indicating the locations.
Thanks! Great memories, did a week of flying there in 2004, some time ago but recognized the spot.
1:11 Monte Cassini? 🤔😁
Yes, very good!
Now I added the locations in the subtitles so you can identify all the takeoffs ;)
For God's sake that I look like that before I got smooth with a paraglider how embarrassing.
Yes it takes a lot of work to get a safe and controlled pilot. Its a joyfull path that never ends. I'm happy you are on your way! :)
