    I'm an A or low B girl all the way. Unless racing or going for distance records anything more isn't worth the hassle of dealing with multiple asymmetricals in rough conditions. Plus overweight on some A wings is awesome for acro!

    Do paraglider pilots have an altimeter while gliding?

  • @willswingwilly1950

    I'm aware of such helpless situation , establish your self a landing system : Ground rule , down wind approach , turning 180 degrees in against the wind to do your final leg , this works to the right or left . Important , the way of landing needs to be in your head early and high enough :)

    Your videos are more informative and really useful. Never come acoss such. I hope you make more videos by distinguishing Brakes, A Riser, B, C and D from the hands to, walking all the way towards the Parawing and showing how each one of the riser lead to a location on the glider. How to steer high aloft with actual controls pulled and raised to gradually descend. And how to apply brakes from high in the ssky and eventually land smoothly. You did an excellent job.

    Been there done that. Broke my hip on an EUC a month ago. Found out my bones are now too brittle to take a knock now. Bottom line is to recognize when it is time to cease.

      I took my first radio assisted solo flight after a 7 day ground handling paragliding course and although had a fine landing, during the take off i fell over once due to the deflation of the wing due to a side wide, and the instructor was slow in telling me to stop. And i had to pull the brakes hard and crouch and hold the stones near the take off cliff. Got scared, but tried again and took off and landed too with a 20 minute flight. But i got scared from this first experience and quit the remaining course. Sorry to hear your injury, hope you will recover quick. I'm still curious about this sport and not sure if want to try agan because of the huge risk or not.

    Hi Greg, thanks for this review. I allready have this epsilon dls and you show me new interesting point. However, i didn t understand what you get as max speed full bar. When i am flying, it seems to me that i only gain 5km/h full bar.

    I love doing swoop flares. Even If they are not nessessry. The landing field has to be Big. You end up comming in fast and almost Lifting up again. It's Not the safest was to Land but it's fun. Hanggliders also land like that

    18k ft is 5.4km. It's not thaat bad - you still have a reasonably long time of useful consciousness. 11km, now that would be really bad (and totally achievable in a CB)

    I think that some pilots never practice enough diving coordinated 360's and so they don't feel confident when faced with the need to do them close to the ground.
