Going for my first jump next week.. thanks for the info Sir😊
I have listened to this video, several times, and I’m beginning to get it.
This works! Thank you for all of your videos, sharing your knowledge. You’re an excellent teacher who really knows how to get the information across in a manner that is easy to understand.
Love it! Its so important to address these common problems early.
Excelent tips, spent many years aaway from the sport, and since I started it again, was strugling to land... practice these instruction and I did the best landing since I got back to the sport !!! Thank yoU !
Great video & very useful. Thanks for sharing this kind of detail & please make more like these. Also specially the same type of breakdown for launch & using brakes at take off. Thanks
i mean para motor launch
I did this last week on my dive flow 7!
I stopped and held it and hoped for the best 🥹
It was a great PLF though… thanks to my volleyball days!!
I’m just struggling to find that balance between flaring too early and flaring too late. It was my ninth jump and I’m excited to use this knowledge on my next jump!!
I’m sure my depth perception will improve over time and alleviate these struggles.
Depth perception does become better as you jump more. As you start to grow more comfortable, your relaxation allows for time to slow down for you, and everything becomes much easier. We can work together online if you want. I help lots of people push through these, very normal problems. You can reach out through AdventureWisdom.com
Fresh AFF beginner here, in juli 2023, 51 yo. I love those tips and you're absolutly right: after the free fall, things can get complicated very quick ;-)
Good info man.. definitely gonna practice this ..I had a high flare back in AFF but held it 1st stage...iit didn't surge to bad but i still came in abit hot on the 2nd ...blue skies bri
You are APPRECIATED. 👍🙏
If you're wearing a digital alti have a look once you deploy. Look at what altitude you're at before you start a full flare. It'll give a good indication of how much altitude you lose when you flare. Helped me a lot to stand my landings. Of course that may go out the window if you land with the wind or crosswind but if you're against the wind I find it's a consistent way to judge your flare height.
I have no scientific evidence nor reason to believe that the flare response changes with respect to the windline. Observe your own data to confirm. Further, keep in mind that as you descend, the density of the air increases, reducing the amount of altitude required to achieve level-off. This does not mean the data is invaluable, only that our expectations must be adjusted. This is true of maneuver recovery response as well.
Thank you!!!!!
Man I have the same mind of this guy cause I completely get what he’s saying.
