    This was the first video I’ve watched from Flybubble and this was an absolute fantastic tutorial. From other comments I see it’s a first from Nancy and I can’t believe that. More please!

    Thank you, Love the video!! When you are flying...how do you know where to fly? Do you make a plan? You go with the lift? Or wind direction? Thank you

    I did my first glide 3 weeks ago and I can't wait to soar 😁 I just can't wait. Going to download this episode so I can burn it in me head 🤭

    Very interesting thank you, didn't like the grey clouds or the occasional turbulence! But apart from that what an experience!

    I think that is Piedechinche spot, maybe the best spot in Colombia.

    4:00 speedbar+brakes. What pros/cons of this technique?

      I friend of mine took a front colapse for doing this.

      She really didn't have any brake pressure on bar but I'd go to C's.

    • @flybubblecarlo

      Hi Eugenue. Generally best to avoid using speedbar+brakes, mainly because it's inefficient. On the other hand if you feel the wing suddenly losing pressure and about to collapse then it's best to react on the brakes immediately to prevent or minimise the collapse whilst being careful not to overreact. In case of encountering sudden strong turbulence, using the brakes for 'active flying' is in most cases the best--and often only--way to prevent collapses.

    • @flybubblecarlo
      @flybubblecarlo 5 лет назад

      You'll notice in the bit of the video you link to that when Nancy decides to use the speed system she says: "... bit of speed bar, lift up on my brakes..." but then shortly after this she flies through some turbulence "... little bit of bumpiness on the glide... " and so she automatically adds a bit of brake* and then shortly after this comes off the speed system after she enters the climb. *If I was to being picky then I'd say that in this particular situation, where the turbulence clearly wasn't bad enough to case a collapse, it would have been 'better practice' to have eased off the speed system first then applied the brake soon after (if this was even required at all), almost in the same motion, so as to minimise any potential negative effect on the distribution of pressure across the wing whilst at the same time flying 'actively'.

    Nancy why skytraxx and naviter together ? you wanna compare the 2 companies top products? Forget all, the new skytraxx 2,1 flarm & fanet is the breaking gps. one top feature of a lots more, you can connect it with the fantastic maps auf XC track :-))

    What's everyone's thoughts on her karabiners facing the same direction as where the riser is tending to pull towards the gate? Pros and cons

    • @VLADParagliding
      @VLADParagliding 5 лет назад

      According to my experience, it's easier to mount a camera clamp on the carabiner if they are in this direction

    would have been quite a good video if you had actually pointed the camera at what you were talking about instead of your face.
