    Excellent scratch work down low! Looks like you could fly the world!

      Also, good strong decision making skills on the fly. Even though you were greatly active and doing well in developing air. Great pilot.

      I love this video. Really show's that you've got to work the life and stay in it. All so show's how thermals hug the hill. Thanks for watching!

    Nice flight. Good job working those thermals. I enjoy watching a video of an area I know well. Never seen it from your perspective though. Use to fly my drone in that park. I have an Ozone Roadster 2 28 for my paramotor wing. I've been told it can be used as a paraglider as well. Working out some of the final kinks in my PPG training. Hope to be flying sometime in July. ;o)

      Hopefully we can cross paths sometime. Your wing will do fine for paragliding. Just pull the trim all the way in and it will work like a normal glider. You can even ride the ridge and thermal, your wing will just fly a little faster then most. Doing sledders on Boulder hill is a good way to improve your takeoffs and landing. All comes down to wing control, would really help you on PPG launching. I really recommend learning both motor and free flight just because Colorado has so much to offer.

    15:55 That guy was like. "What the heck man? I am just out here enjoying my quite time, and here comes this guy flying a table cloth..." by the way, what happened to that nice white wing you were flying?

      He was pretty nice about it.

      I flew the white wing the first two flights and sank out. My old wing I'm really on the light side of the weight rage, so working with light lift is easy. Mac para is a small company but the eden really is a great wing for light thermals but week on speed.

    What type of electronic makes that sound?

    • @carlcolorado3549
      @carlcolorado3549  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's a vario. Let's you know where the lift is. Once you find the lifting air you can get higher. Various makes sound so you don't have to look at the computer screen. Beeps are a very good sound when flying a glider!!

      Don't need a motor to fly unless you're Tucker Gott lol

    Sweet lift! Ride em cowboy!! I wanna fly there!! I really really do. While I was working on my P2 I watched a bunch of vids from there, inspiring. Steven Nevels, he moved to Florida. Hey if you have Android you can do crude edits with Vidtrim Pro. Hey get a needle and thread and fix those pod tears, don't let them grow.

      It's a fun place but tricky to get up over the mountain. A lot of good xc opportunity once you get high!
      I had a lot of footage from two cellphones and a gopro I wanted to smash together. My wife recorded me taking off and bombing out all the way to the lz. Think I'll up load that one to TH-cam when I get home.
