- PARAGLIDING TUTORIAL - paragliding reverse take off tips! Learn how to do reverse take off with your paraglider, speedflying wing or miniwing!
In todays paragliding tutorial video I’ll show you MY way of reverse take off. This trick requires some paragliding ground handling skills including reverse control. You can do this reverse launch take off trick with any wing you have. Just keep in mind that bigger paragliding wings are little harder to play around with, if you compare it with light paragliding wings. Also its possible to do this take off trick with speedflying wings or miniwings!
When to use these reverse paragliding take off tips? Well paragliding takeoffs are very important part in this sport! As we are in the most dangerous paragliding spot. That means that if we fail on paragliding launch - we can quickly get smashed down and thats bad. So to avoid all paragliding fails and bad situations you have to master ground handling paragliding wing and one of them is to have ultimate control over you paraglider while doing reverse take off!
There are few important steps to learn that ground handling take off trick. To master perfect reverse launch or reverse take off with your paragliding, speedflying or miniwing make sure you follow this:
Number 1 is to learn how to properly hook in with your harness.
Followed by step 2 which is grabbing your commands and all other risers in proper order.
Step number 3 is to know the conditions and how to interact with your paraglider.
Step 4 is to control your paragliding wing above you head and turn around at proper timing.
Step 5 is to avoid all the mistakes you can make while doing reverse paragliding launch! (explained IN VIDEO)
Step 6 enjoy in nice and smooth take off and have a great flight!
I remember when I started paragliding I was already full of ground handling skills (because I was handling for years before I really jumped IN actual paragliding), I quickly mastered reverse paragliding take offs and then other tricks which allowed me to take off from almost anywhere!
So if you ask me paragliding ground handling is in my opinion one of the most important things to learn in this sport. With big impact on preventing paragliding accidents and crashes… So I am thinking of creating more paragliding tutorial videos on this channel.
This reverse paragliding take off tutorial is something you wanna learn fast! It gives you more control and at the end more safety overall.

Can you please do a tutorial for alpine/forward launch? For people that are used to flying in a lot of wind, reverse launch is the daily bread BUT alpine/forward launch is scary, specially when you're alone and you don't have anyone to tell you if the wing is coming nice and even on top of you.
Keep up the good work, man!
@@carlosleon7683 Thanks Carlos!! Great idea I'll put it on my "to do" list :)
Vol-biv guide, gear guide(harnesses, flight instruments), beautiful flight locations guide.
@@MikkelsenR Roger that!! :))
Love it, now do one for a two line CCC glider.
Hi Aljaz, as the pioneer of the Mitsos Reverse Launch, I want to firstly congratulate you on a well produced video and explanation of this technique. Only recommendation I can make is, always grab the rear risers (after brakes in hands) first and take left hand to hip before grabbing A's. When it's windy it's putting the safety on the trigger. I also use the C's to control the wing on ascent, by moving the left hand towards to low wing. Also use the C's to stop the wing overshooting in stronger winds. I also suggest stepping back into the wind prior to turning as this will help the wing move forward when it's windy. Too many pilots turn around as soon as the wing is overhead and when you're moving back towards the wing, it means you'll be behind the wing, rather than in front of it... cheers mitsi
Thank you Mark!! Great, thanks for you input!! :)
@@AddictionHappiness I also sent you an email...
You are an AWESOME instructor! Love your videos!! Thank you! I always do reverse inflations, but everytime I ended up with brake line in a single twist. That little detail in this video about which side to hold the toggles was priceless for me! You're my new superhero!
Yehaaa so great to hear that!! thanks!! :)) Happy to help! More action soon :)

Dude, more tutorials please!!! I'm in the process of saving for my training and love stuff like this. I have an old, cheap GH wing which I'm using to do some practice. so much fun, can't wait to fly! Maybe just general GH techniques, controlling the wing, wing packing techniques etc. :D love your videos.

i love your video great teaching
Thank you soo much Michael!! 🙏
Always use the reverse launch. A tip I use, think 'right to flight' and 'left to land' when considering which way to turn at launch and landing. Provided of course your right risers are over your left.
Thank for imput Matthew! :)) and yeah aleays reverse 🙌🤩🤙

Personally, I think it's easier to connect to the glider while facing it... just turn the risers 180° in the direction you turn... If you do it like you showed you'll often catch a line on your helmet... Does not look very professional and is also annoying... ;-D EDIT: Damn, I wasn't patient enough! ^^
Hahah fair enough!! :D I also prefer that second version :))
as usual, nice material for beginners and advanced everyone will find something for themselves. I have only one question, Aljaz, you know what
Thanks Tomasz!! I appreciate your support! :) And question is....? :)))
@@AddictionHappiness where is the helmet .... helmet where are you, are you in your backpack ... why you don't like my head. This asks your helmet Aljaz
@@skydiveinfo I agree that helmet is very important in these sports. But As you can see from the video - terrain I am on, is soft grass without rocks - in front of me there is parachute landing place with small "soft" round mini rocks. You can't really smash into something here and on top of that conditions are super light. So question right there - are we wearing helmets while we walk on sidewalks next to roads (full of rock solid materials) and stuff like that? :) However - like I mentioned I always wear helmet where risk factor is real and out of my possible control. So soft grass without dangerous obstacles and light conditions... not needed. Hope it makes sense? :)
@@AddictionHappinessYes you are 100% right, but it is for your skills, ground (grass) weather a few winds.
The problem is in people who will imitate you and will not take it into account. You have great materials and I like you very much.
@@skydiveinfo That might be the case true...but I think everyone should have that much knowledge to keep that in mind. But like you said you never know so I'll try to make it somehow explained or included :) Thanks for support and feedback Tomasz! :)
Great tutorial! Thank you!
How are the reaction with the C-risers to control and direct the wing? = which side to move for which reaction?
Keep up your great work!!!!
Thanks Mike!! Happy that you like it! It really depends on which side you are turnes but if you pull right C riser it will go to right side and if you pull ledt it will go to left. So works same conceot as with brakes :)
@@AddictionHappiness Hey! Thanks for your fast answer! - Hope to see you somewhere in the air

Your accent is soooo funny ! Thanks for a great video !!! As for the music, on reflection I think it adds to the humour so I suggest leaving it in. Without it the video would lose some of its originality.
Thank you soo much Corinne :)) Yeah I agree with music, great point :)
What if you have some D, still grab the C for control or the D ?
Nice and funny vid as always man!
Always works best with rears 🙌🤟🤟 thanks for support!! Happy that you enjoy 🙏🤩
top...👍
Thanks buddy!! 😍🙌
What about to the landing...?
You mean reverse INFLATION with forward TAKEOFF. a reverse TAKEOFF is when you actually leave the ground while kiting and facing reverse.
Yeah you can say it like that! :) And actually all you have to do is follow all steps just don't turn around and just keep going backwards and off you go :D So whatever you feel more comfy with :))
for 90% you do well but: 1 better a sloping lawn 2 in rotation the sail must be braked (as needed) 3 in rotation the bust must be straight and you must not bend your ass
💙💙💙💙💙
yehaa 🙏
How to Groundheli ;)
Great!! Added to my list :))
