Very good and nice 👍

I have a question to the experts here. In hang-gliding, can a pilot input a one side turn and quickly input an opposite side turn to negate the previous input, without the glider respond to the first input? In other words does a fast pendulum action from one side to the other has any effect on the glider? Does the physics in gliders allow them forget inputs if negated?

What the fu..!

Lol smooth move EXLAX

Hey you walked away from the flight, been there to. Landings and gravity are not always as nice as the flight. Blessings

Any landing you walk away from is a good one! 😊

20 seconds into the video and I am wondering why those two men are sitting on the side on the ramp while a glider is preparing for take off.

nice landing

Ping pong landing its good ;)

Hey! Would it be ok to feature your clip in a video we're making? You'll be credited with a on-screen watermark and in the description/pinned comment. Do you mind explaining what happened?

Your lucky it didn't fold under your down tubes

his body was fine, but underneath his pride was shattered

Hello! May I use it in my new episode? Full credited of course.

A hang glider pilot must never set up the landing in a turn. The left and the right sides will see different speeds, and the result can be seen in this video. Set up the landing leveled up, assume upright position, speed through the gradient, ground effect, and flair at the right moment (don’t flair in strong head wind though)

Pilots tend to think about too high or low on an approach. You need instead to think about controlling the distance to touchdown and making it right for for the altitude you have. The advantage of a base leg approach is it allows you to vary your distance to touchdown by cutting the corner if you need to be closer or squaring off the turn if you are good or overshooting the final a little if you need more distance. Also the base leg allows you to evaluate wind drift and think what that means to your final approach. What you don't want to do is be making steep desperate turns near the ground. That will kill you in a light airplane and bend downtubes in a hang glider. I have owned three hang gliders, licensed in sailplanes, and 5000 hrs+ instructing in light airplanes.

You made that last turn so low, I really thought you were setting up for a downwind landing so I was thinking , "this is not going to be good" but, for a different reason.

Was more an “ugly landing” than a “crash” in the end. I assume the last second left turn was unintentional and was a result of some combo of too little speed. Get on downtubes earlier, look straight ahead, and always come in fast (unless you end up landing downwind, as appears to have happened here). Good thing wheels took a little of the shock.

I felt this almost 9 years later

and here the device accelerated perfectly on landing

What's up with people sitting on the launch? Pilot had to move around them. Not cool

You shouldn't turn while you're landing. I'm not even a pilot and I know that.

Don't fill bad, anyone that has been flying hang gliders has done that!!!

I feel lied too

Who is the BOZO sitting on the launch ramp that makes the pilot have to walk around him to get set for launching

Bad Landing maybe. Crash?

clickbait!!!

Didn’t look too bad at all. Could have been far worse. I want to try this!!

How are those little wheels supposed to roll on a grass field? You need about 12". Just sayin'.

Thats not a crash bro its just a shitty landing

That’s the best type of landing I could hope for if I tried this 😂🤣

Get some sheet and a few lightweight poles and a sleeping bag and jump off a mountain. Clever . No sympathy for crashes

Thanks for sharing this video. I'm headed to LMFP this summer to learn to hang glide, and I'm looking at landing videos to see what to do and what not to do. It takes courage to share the "here's where I made a mistake" video, but I've rewatched your approach multiple times to get an idea of the field layout and strategies for landing. It looks like you thought you might run out of runway, tried to circle around to bleed off airspeed and altitude, and underestimated how much altitude/speed would be lost in that turn (and those trees mandated a tight turn there, too!). Glad you walked away from that one unharmed and with an unharmed glider. Any advice for a noob who's probably going to face-plant a few times on the bunny hill next month?

Чайник. Управлять не умеет. И крыло постоянно тянет в право.

Those wheels came in handy

REFLEJOS O QUE 😮

As a former hang gliding pilot, it looked like you let the wind take control of your landing.

Glad to see the crash as more of a whack!

Interesting. It is really very silent. Amazing.

By the audio of the wind you fluctuated your airspeed from very slow to stalling .Your arms were Straite out .To fly the same track again with more airspeed, speed is your power. Also make your last 100 ft with more speed again,but have a long straight line to the landing point you have put your eye on. have your feet free legs folded,You'll learn where you keep speed up to round out close to landing ,the time to slow down and feel the pressure your pulling in to maintain flight is getting lighter ,Nezt it will push back by iit's self,wanting to drop the nose to regain speed.This point is the right time to flare.

That's as good as a crash gets lol, assuming no damage to the glider and clearly none to the pilot.

Looked a little rough on the landing. But he walked away.

Kiss belly landing ! ))

ALL TACKOFF FROM Raiman fly land IRAN th-cam.com/video/I8KNMVeYewk/w-d-xo.html

Turned too close to the ground and did not level wings or flare early enough. I've done it before, but I won't do it again.

Well that was a belly flop on land if I ever saw one... glad you're okay. Hope the glider is in good shape still

Carry a bit more speed. Notice if you relax the glider speeds up if trimmed properly. Then shift hips with a slight pushout to turn.

Funny approaching.... well... lesson 1, never make turns close to ground when landing... could've been worst. Practice short flights over and over so you be exposed to more landings and not long stabilized flights. Landings are more demanding.

I meant to do that.

The camera was hella secured.

Esau is crazy
