my friend goes to paragliding school.
My friend traveled from Miami, Florida all the way to the Alps. He started off his trip by learning to paraglide. We documented the process to show the world how easy it is to start paragliding!

How I Learned To Reverse Launch.
มุมมอง 203K7 ปีที่แล้ว
The paragliding reverse launch or take off is an essential skill for every pilot to learn and master. Every pilot should learn how to reverse launch safely and effectively as soon as possible. I knew my reverse launch technique wasn't that good, but I didn't realize how bad and dangerous it was until I started filming my takeoff's. Hundreds of launches later, I feel confident that I can complet...

    Weird that you think most pilots learn reverse launches be watching other pilots. For me it was required to demonstrate reverse launch technique to get my license - but then I guess in the US licenses are not required so perhaps more pilots are teaching themselves via youtube (I shudder just thinking about that).

    Reverse launch - NOT. Those are all reverse INFLATIONS transitioning to forward launches. In a reverse launch, you are running backwards with risers twisted, facing the wing, and lift off that way.

    This is my main reason for following your channels, paragliders, for more than 10 YEARS. living at an altitude of 678 meters above sea level, looking at my place of origin at a height... while wishing I could fly above the earth's surface... because a paragliding parachute WILL NOT BE REACHABLE FOR ME......

    Awesome video! Especially the part where you show the different ways to launch. I have been told that grabbing the A's and C's is the best way because then you have more control over the wing. What do you think?

    I've watched a plethora of reverse video launches, but none compare with this. Simple, concise and with an explanation of failures, and just as important, what to do right. Well done

    Great video! I can confirm that the reverse launche is a technique that must be learned very well, unfortunately I was not followed carefully during my paragliding course by my instructor and the consequence was a bad accident…

    good Video but lots of sites don't have this nice steady slope. Pro's ans con's of the different techniques would have been great as well, eg what's the best for strong wind.

    Nice, but in our scool they encourage to turn early and brake after be turned. To avoid by strong wind to be turn without control and forced to be turn.

    Excellent video. I had no idea that there were that many different techniques to use the ricers and control lines. I will save this one to always review it before I go flying.
