Flying 10 year old gear off Cove

Paragliding is lots of fun! Flying 10 year old gear off of cove. Harness is a Eltirando 3 reversible harness with a Mac Para Eden 3. Eden is my favorite thermalling. This wing never kicks you out and never spins in lift. I've actually flown the swing and competitions. It wasn't fast but it stayed high and competed all tasks. Didn't win but getting to the finish line is a good thing.

I like the quiet “oh f me” 😆. That was tricky evening for launches.

@@chilli8364 This day was pretty crazy. A lot of people were getting plucked off of launch. Even after getting plucked still have to fly the wing. Thought I did pretty good controlling the wing on my back

@@carlcolorado3549 Definitely! I had to try to inflate twice before a smooth launch that evening. 😂 Luckily, by that time, I had dragged my wing so close to the lift band the third one was super easy …just like back on the mesa: inflate, run forward, correct angle, and hang on (because wing is going somewhere and ur going too 😜).

Seems like the ol’ girl did pretty well. I didn’t see the leading edge vibrating though. Did I miss it?

@@chilli8364 GoPro has a setting that cancel out wind noise. Think it cancel out the videation noise of the wing. Basically the upper part of the opening were fluttering. This is probably brought on by being packed so long and sitting in the garage 😂
