  • Thought id share a little hack I learnt recently from Simon Westmore at Paramotor training ( Swindon ),
    some may already know it, but others seem to take a long time untangling wings, this will hopefully help.

    Thanks a lot for this tutorial! I've never seen a video like this that shows exactly what you need to do to untangle your lines. The body cam is perfect, it's very easy to see what you are doing.
    I recently did a paragliding starters course and everytime I had to prepare my parapante, I spent ages trying to untangle my lines and I always ended having to call an instructor over to help me out. They didn't teach us this trick in the starters course but this will certainly help out a lot, thank you! 🙂

    I was taught this trick during training and it blew my mind. I didn’t believe it would be that easy but it’s never failed to work yet.

    Exactly what you tube is all about. I’m a total newbie only just brought a wing to ground handle. Spent half hour trying to untangle a crazy ass mess. Two mins later it’s done. Brilliant. Anymore tips for a newbie. Be quite funny for a total novice to show his instructor a trick like that haha. Keep them coming

    What sorcery is this? I don’t understand the mechanics of how or why this works, and I suppose for now I don’t need to. Thanks for making this video, mate! This saved me from a ton of future frustration and embarrassment on launch, which will ultimately help my flights be safer and more fun. Hope to see you out there! 🙏🏼🤘🏼

    I've just bought my first wing (havnt done my courses yet) and took it out for the first time today to have a good look at it and pack it in a new concertina bag. Took it out of the stuff sack and the lines were like spaghetti! Then I remembered watching your video months ago!!! Literally 5 mins and sorted!!! Brilliant, cheers bud 🤘

    after a river rescue the wonderful boaters that saved me absolutely bees nested my lines- god bless them
    this worked in very short time- most importantly coax out the torsion/ friction knots, spread it out, and it should fall apart and display any twists

    On my first day of training, my instructor purposely gave me a tangled wing to see how I would deal with it. Lucky for me I had watched this video beforehand. thank you for this!
    I guess I should explain, I had taken a partial training course before and my instructor wanted to test me on what I actually knew. Anyhow, awesome video. Thanks so much!!

      mikocot they tend to clear themselves along with the rest, I mentioned that you should always kite afterwards, this will clear friction nots etc, and visually check that all is ok.

    Paul, thanks a bunch mate. Some menacing kids messed with my wing dragged it around at the field while I was putting my paramotor away. The lines were all tangled like a girl with a bad hair day. I used to sort it out one line at a time miticulously which would take me more than half hour. This magic trick really works and here’s my proof: ruclips.net/video/xUpM5QaAkpM/видео.html

    Why does it work?

    • @PaulFrancis-SkyRascal
      @PaulFrancis-SkyRascal  3 года назад

      All the lines are connected to two points, the risers and the wing. in their natural state they may loop over or wrap around each over, but won’t tangle. If you loop the risers trough lines then you have a problem. By freeing one line you ease the problem as the rest that are tangled are fixed to the same points.
      Note; if the risers go through the cascades you have a problem that won’t be fixed with this method.
