Yes Cheers!
Your positivity is pricelessly motivating Greg, cheers!
Brilliant! So much fun! Beautiful people 😎🥇
Finally became a Patron. Sorry it took so long. Great video as usual Greg!
When one of your favourite paragliding channels' protagonist references your another favourite paragliding channel protagonist :D Lol
Fantastic share Greg - really whet the appetite for 2020 while we're grounded (my prediction, we'll all be back out there early May), can't wait to fly with y'all again!
at the moment, , i can only contribute with a thumbs up. only because i am so poor, i can’t even pay attention! much love!
hey what a lesson for everybody... I was watching it and I can see how important are decision making is for the result...
Stay aways in a good position and make good decisions can extend your flight further on...
Another point was the fact that an easier glider even with less performance did the job and "win the day"... but this won't matter at all because each one of you did the best flight of the day no matter how far it goes or who reach the declared goal... what really matters is to enjoy the day and the flight... it is crystal clear to me that the best ever is the one that has more fun!!!!
Thanks for sharing...

Next time give Caro the camera! He knows how to locate the thermals! Only joking!! Great stuff, loved every minute! Now off to India to catch some thermals!
Wow, I'm still being amazed by the beauty of the area you fly in. Hope to get back there someday.
so much fun so entertaining this video thank you very much and we also learn from you flying and good living congratulations
I love watching your videos and it's awesome that you referenced Tucker gott. Be safe bro much love
I truly respect you for your sportsmanship. This is not an easy thing.Maybe 30 minutes later or 30 minutes earlier your approach would have flown all the way there and his approach would have not. Maybe both could have worked in an hour. The best thing about this sport is you don't know who's kind of fly or who's going to have to land doesn't matter how long you've been doing it or what race you just won.
Love your video's, massive help in the gliding world! I just ordered a harness from your website.... Keep it up Chris
Great informative and fun production to wet our appetite to fly xc over the beautiful south downs. Very well done Carlo for completing the course on a B-glider...its the pilot not the wing!
I'm definitely entering the next hike and fly on my Atlas purchased from flybubble! :-)
The height of the hills you guys fly off of is really quite impressive. I guess you usually have some ridge lift to help things along, but it's still pretty incredible!
Absolutely lovely video/experience Greg, well done keep the good work coming :D Come fly in Brazil some day! Beers on me :)
Great entertainment and expertly edited, love your enthusiasm for free flight.
Cool video, the flying there looks really low technical and fun. A lot like where I fly in Southern Washington.
Brilliant
True passion is always contagious! Thanks for these vids!
Nice flying guys!
Awesome video mate! Always entertaining! Cheers!
Amazing
Indeed, what a day!!! Awesome & informative upload as per usual Greg. Thank you!!
I visit to England is now for sure soon. Great video again, great fly performance guys.
So soft baby thermals!
Great video!!! Flew 1 hour today here in south america, chile.
Good winds to you!
Great Video Greg as usual! Thanks for these astonishing views. Any chance you test-fly a U-TURN Vision one of these days????
Great flights guys! mostly avoid Loose Bottom if you can though... :)
McDonald's on freeflight power is definitely boss :D
Another great inspiring video! Just watched this as I drank my breakfast coffee...want to go flying!! Your videos are superb Greg...thanks for all the work you put in and for sharing it all. You mention at the end that there's a way of supporting these productions...not clear how but would like to as you have really helped my flying. Cheers.
Awesome 🤩👏
Yeees, some really good xc-advice again!!
How do you para gliders guys you usually organize for transport?? Especially if you go to some place a little further than base?
We check weather forecast, organise the day on internet (facebook group, Whatsapp or similar) meet up at a car park close to where people are living. Pack people and paragliders in cars, 3 or 4.
Drive to chosen site. Leave a car at landing site. Drive with the car really packed to the take off site. If long distance flying, we share gps location with the flying group when we land, we hitch hike back to the take of site, or if someone can, they pick us up with one of the car. In the evening do everything in reverse, with a mandatory stop at the pub.
Great video again :)
Beautiful!
Camera delay-reverb hilarious!Cheers from Greece!
Amazing work !
Great content!!!
Nice!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice shout out to Tucker G. MickeyD's is definitly international. Impressive flying. Need to get all you hooligans together for an icarus run out west USA.
13:02 - Tucker Gott - LOL...
Hi Greg, thanks for this nice vid!
Questions: what camera did you use? External microphone or integrated?
thanks
You can fly off the back of Caburn?! Who knew!
The title of this video should of been “paragliding to mcdonalds”
Question for you: You always seem to have sooooo much brake pulled, especially when thermaling. How much is ideal (what am I looking for?) for ___ type of wing? Obv. stalling is too much, but what's the sweet spot?
When thermalling, if the thermal is narrow, you want to slow down the glider, so you turn flatter for the same radius. If you are flatter, you loose less vertical height in the rising air, so its more efficient, you go up faster. Imagine if you try to turn tight full speed, the wing will be completely on the side, and you would loose a lot of height.
Of course you dont want to spin your wing.
Amazing video!, what is name of the music at 10:00 ? (it is sooo peaceful)😇
Has this been completed since?
At 10:00 you have your brakes on to the caribiners- I was always taught that was spin/stall territory, but always find I struggle to stay up soaring ridges on my wing. Should I be more confident on my brakes?
You should do a SIV course to know what amount of brake is stall territory on your glider, with your weight. On my wing when thermalling, I always put my inside hand on the carabiner, and adjust turning radius with outside brake. My stall point is at my tight. There is quite a lot of distance between my tigh and my carabiner.

Hello colleagues: do you have any video in Spanish?
Hola compañeros :¿teneis algun video en español?
May I ask what software you are using for your flight analysises ..quite cool! Thanks
ayvri.com/
It's Ayvri site. You can use Google Earth as well.
Are we allowed to fly Beddingham? I used to top land there and take off again, when it was only used for hangliding training.
I think if FlySussex aren't using it then it's not a problem
Rematch must be on the cards?
Show
what device do you use to record your track, speed and height?
If you mean what devices do we use in general, we use flight instruments made for paragliding like the ones you can see on our website: flybubble.com/instruments
If you mean which specific device we used in this video, each of us was using different paragliding flight instruments on this day e.g. Skytraxx 2.1 FANET+, Syride SYS'Nav V3, Syride SYS'Evolution or the latest Naviter Oudie.
@@carloborsattino8815 thank you very much for your reply with the website and the devices used.
Song?
I would love to fly with you!!!for the time being if you came to Grindelwald again text me😊😊
Nice video ... until you used the m word...
