you prolly dont give a damn but does someone know of a way to get back into an Instagram account?? I was dumb lost my account password. I love any help you can offer me
@Jayceon Trenton I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
I am a skydiver and paramotor pilot. I have very little experience with paraglider in thermals, and no experience flying in mountain conditions. This video was absolutely fascinating. Your explanations and glider track against the Google Earth map made everything much easier to understand. Thank you for making this video.
i learned more about hill thermals in this one video then probably watching 50 other videos. Thermals are location specific and you need to keep your bank angle even to maximize them. Thank you sir Jocky!
After a decade of very little paragliding due to work and my global motorcycling adventures (www.bigbiketrip.net) I am flying again and found everything moved on from when I did over 500 hours a year in early mid 90s. People are flying XCountry in Hong Kong on amazing wings I dont recognise, using harnesses that look like canoe harnesses and using flying kit like XCtracer and various GPS and map apps. I remember Jocky from years back and will now study all his videos to get back up to speed. Together with being stuck in Hong Kong I hope flying practice and studying from experts like Jocky on TH-cam will help.
Thanks for the educational videos. I'm a hang glider pilot so I appreciate all the thermaling videos. I live in FL so that's all we have unless we're lucky enough to have a convergence from the Atlantic and Gulf Coast breezes.
Loved the views very educational a big thanks to you all, The editing for saving us from the body beautiful bits after the little walk back up, And the pianist aye found it very relaxing music very good. Gid Mun Jocky but at the end of the day a didnae fancy yours much LOL. It made my day cheers.
Stunning flight! As a newbie, I’d love to hear more about the convergence layer you talked about - How and where would you look for these so you can take advantage of them? Thanks the tour!
Hi, it looks like a fun day of flight. I appreciate your way of explaining techniques with a nice english accent that I notice long time ago on a video you did with Jerome C. Ever since I follow you both on video:) Please continue doing great teaching. Daniel
Hi Jocky, when you say “Tighten on the stronger lift”, is that on each rotation or generally in punchier thermals? I think I may have got my timing in thermals out of sync? Lovely video by the way. Thanks
you tighten to stay o the stronger lift, cores, which can often be smaller than the overall lift. if the lift is constant and wide then you don't have to do tight lift.
You had me sold within the first minute - ladies, beer and pies...!
Thanks for the guided tour! Such a great region to explore.
Would love to fly along with you Greg. One day if you came for a visit to New Zealand

@Jayceon Trenton it did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thank you so much you saved my ass!
Very cool! Can't wait to fly in your neck of the woods!
you are welcome anytime

Beautifully done J. Calming music too. enjoyed watching the whole video. Thanks!

Great advice Jocky, thanks mate. Will use this info when flying the Karakoram mountains in Pakistan later this year.
I don't know anything about paragliding, but this environment seems challenging!
