Thanks! these were great tips. I'm going to be flying in vietnam on the coast next month and i worry about this.

Yup, may have to get to Old next year and do another SIV. Pretty sure Jocky's calm voice on the radio helps!

I just hit this video today and I learnt a lot. Thanks a lot

This is a great video, not just for when you’ve had a (long) break for whatever reason!

Why is it better to use the A-risers by default instead of the C? It seemed like a smooth ride using the C. Great video again, thank you!

I'm studying for my written exam and this video is incredibly useful to understand these techniques that I only read about so far. Thank you very much!

What do you mean by "kick it out" Jocky? Can't see specifically what you are doing to recover.

Thank you! :) As always, it's a very informative video!

I like Ozone👍👍

Hello !!! =) You don't drink water on the flight?

Very good Jockie

So at 4:00 when he sprials an A wing all he did to recover is hands up?

Where is that location?

This video goes with my piloting philosophy completely because I'm just a tourist sitting in a seat want to look around out of the sky not really wanting to land even too much proximity flying in that landing but I guess there's no way around it. This look like my kind of exercise other than I don't want to use the brakes, so much. I want to get a habit of making large wide circles. Proximity flying is a problem with any kind of aircraft a human being operates and I like to leave lots of room. I already told the instructor I'm not landing where everybody else lands because there's cars and other people around and I want to have a great big wide open place for this epic landing I can walk back.

I saw one guy descending under a reserve and he had the main shoot formed into kind of a Mae West with two big pockets and no Wing involved and it was helping slowing down for the landing. I thought he had just put on a lot of breaks and put it into a stall can you tell me what he did?

What an epic spot ❤

I remember the good old days (around 1984) with the round parachutes T10 and C9 with limited double L or TU modifications. VERY limited steering and no flaring. Every landing was PLF. It transfers forward energy into the rotational energy. We practised it from chairs, tables and ended up doing it from about 3m height. The T10 (10.6m diameter) was for the heavy blokes like me, and the C9 (8.5m Diameter) was for the lighter weight classes. I once took a C9 by mistake and to make matters worse I took one with full TU modification. The T10 descends at a rate of 6.7 to 7.3 m/s, and an unmodified C9 with the same weight descends quite a bit faster so I came down way faster than I was supposed to. The instructor was screaming his head of but that didn't help on the descend rate. In the end I walked away from that experience with no damage of any kind due to a perfectly executed PLF.

That was incredible thank you

Thank you for this outstanding presentation !

Good video, nice adventure. Thanks for sharing. Tommy

Nooooooo, this is treason of cx flying🙈

What a lovely video..

Fun!

What's the glide ratio with the motor and without the motor? How much penalty is there?

When they can make it much lighter this will be viable but it's not much use as it is.

I really like the waist strap idea! Brilliant! All paramotors should implement that!

Cool design if only it wasn’t as big as it looks

When they can make it much lighter this will be viable but it's not much use as it is.

FINALLY, somthin with A hip strap to take the weight off the back. Will be good to get one-off these one day.

This looks awesome Jocky! I assume you'll need a power license on top of your paragliding one and that it works with a paragliding wing and does not need a PPG wing with trimmers

Miro is really trying to change the game --- we all know this one will be amazing when electric.

Good job we're all honest as the day is long, otherwise the XCLeague's going to get interesting.

Thank you for the excellent review.

Wish this existed in the 90s - my knees would have lasted longer LOL

What about the drag of the frame and netting?

Thanks so much 🙏

Jocky, you are a bird of prey,,

Bro, where's this year's vids :) we want some live news

Strangely enough, I didn't see any loop in this video. Not even a real barrel roll. Just a glorified wingover :)

2:05, I'm wondering if take off from the ground would be possible in this place. Just pick the wing up and let the thermal work.😂

I recently did my SIV with Jocky and his crew, learned a lot and had an awesome time. We finished off with a flight to Butterfly Valley, cold beers and yoga on the beach. 😊

I only have about 30 hours of flight time so far but I really want to get into a SIV course.

Brill!

What is the propper landing position to be in? Legs straight, crossed, staggered? etc...

The clarity of the explanation is phenomenal

randomly came across this. great video, great instruction. not sure if i'll ever need it but i'll try to keep it in mind anyways.

Krusevo. Makedonia

And get a *Big* rescue - trying to save a few grams by using a small reserve is a false economy.

When this happens, I want my emergency procedure thought process coming through in your calming British accent.
