Asymmetric Collapses : Learn how to safely recover from deflations when paragliding

Jocky Sanderson shows how to recover from asymmetric collapses/deflations on a paraglider.
Asymmetric tucks are the most common deflations you are going to get when paragliding and there is nothing to worry about, as long as you are quick to respond and you don't over-react to them.

Still after 275 hrs I consider myself to be a very conservative maybe timid pilot. Even the idea of SIV 1 year ago made me nervous. But for no travel I am now ready to do a coarse. This guy has convinced me maybe modern paragliders are not the terrifying as I thought.

[@WesleySmith1920]

Thanks for your comments. I think there are many more people like you, and me, in the PAragliding community than will admit

[@PhilippeLarcher]

Today I reach ≈12h and did my first collapses under supervision (no water). I'd be afraid to fly 200+ hours without having trained for this :o
My school teaches collapses during intermediate course, if you do it immediately after the beginner week (or with no flights in between) that could be your 13th flight ≈

Thanks for making these available

[@EvilKen01]

Thank you for your videos! You are so good at describing and creating the collapse. It’s so educational!

[@Goitzsche]

Your videos are really brilliant! Listening to you mediates a big passion for paragliding. You encourage people to extend their abilities under the wing and to experience borderline situations. Big "Thank you" for your clips! - Although I didn't do a SIV so far I train collapses on the ground and hereby stalling the wing 70 % on one side and try to keep it running straight forward a certain distance. Doing this I have got a basic feeling of what is happening (flapping, brake pressures etc.). Next step SIV. Hello from GER!

Hi Get, Thanks, see you soon

[@pastyves]

Thanks a lot for this vidéo!!! Deflation=stay calm

[@JERFALCON]

You’re one of my Heros! 🙏🏼🦅🪂

[@CARTERTH1]

Thank you for the confidence. Truly a help!

[@5ty717]

Very good Jockie

[@WesleySmith1920]

Incredible videos Jockey! I’m embarrassed to say I’ve been flying for 10 years and didn’t know half of the things that you are teaching in these videos. I’m looking forward to taking Cody’s clinic in two weeks and these have been super helpful

[@JockySandersonparagliding]

Thanks Wesley. Please send Cody my best regards, he's a great pilot and instructor.

Hi Jocky, thanks for all your great tutorials! After looking all videos i feel more safe as before,I hope my small donation helps you, best greetings from bavaria.

[@jockysanderson5659]

That is very kind of you. All your kind donations go directly into re-investing in kit and filming for future releases to help share the fun and safety of our great sport. Thanks again

[@climb315]

Thank you

[@CharlieMcCormack]

Maybe I will book that course after all..

"Enjoy the deflation" - Jocky Sanderson 👍

[@markmcgoveran6811]

I've been watching your videos over and over and I really love them and I'm trying to get it polished and so that I don't make my problems worse with pilot error. They say on a launch if it'll launch it will fly. I see people who are flying with a collapse. If it will fly will it land? If you weight shift and keep straight flight and it doesn't seem to want to come out can you just ignore it and try to land anyway?

[@Flying_Bear]

My scariest moment so far... a non-event really :)

[@alejs_fx]

@Archer Hassan you both joined 1 month ago on TH-cam, wtf stop trying to scam people 😂

[@handriegoetze590]

What would happen if you loose a carabiner? Would the pilot be able to maintain flight with half the wing flapping backwards if all the weight is shifted vertically in line with the inflated half wing?

[@JockySandersonparagliding]

it would be very hard to control and would likely go into a severe rotation, because of the asymmetry of the glider shape a wing load. throw your reserve if it starts to rotate with High G.

[@andrewmayers1511]

some cahuners on this chap

[@sinan_akdeniz]

Jocky,
Do you live in fethiye or ölüdeniz?

[@JockySandersonparagliding]

Hi Sinan, I live in Keswick, England but stay in Oludeniz april and september

[@vathle7277]

i hope you've heard this before, thumbs in brake pulleys have caused lethal accidents cus pilots couldnt get their hands out of the brake handles.

[@marcomaas9915]

I guess Jocky knows 😉

[@thorlancaster5641]

Depends on the size of the gloves / handles. If you can easily remove your hands it's not a problem.
