Thank you so much for your kind comment. Appreciate it ! Glad you learning something new with my videos , take care and stay safe and healthy in this crazy World situation
Me too I should say that his method to explain simply tips are usefull. He is the best so far ... and then Greg from flybubble
Peter can't thank you enough.. I watched a lot of videos.. you are the most helpful, generous in sharing info and simple in your explanation
Thank you very much 🙏 glad that you understand my explanation 🤣
Unbelievable... In my 20 years of flying research... Never saw such acurate and awesome video training
Thank you 🙏 glad you find it useful 😉
Thank you so much! I went to the park and practiced rotating it when it lands upside down, like you show. Brilliant. Thanks again
Glad that you found it useful 🙏 Thank you for learning with me 😉 take care and have lots of fun
I took a year off flying and have just begun kitting again. Your video was such a great refresher, Thanks for putting this out for us.
Thank you taking time to refreshing with my video 😉
GH/kiting is great fun !
I have learnt so much with that tutorial and the other one as well! Thank you SO MUCH for your help and your time!! ;)
Thank you for watching and learning from me 😜 take care, stay safe !
Great video Peter. Its just what I needed. No more unhooking wing from kiting harness when it goes upside down. Thank you Thank you and THANKYOU. !!!
You are welcome mate! Thank you for watching and sub. :)
Pete: This is the best video on this topic that I have seen (and I have seen a lot of them)!...very useful!
Your down to earth demeanor together with your simple/clear explanations and your interest in teaching others set this video apart from others treating these topics!
Congratulations and thank you!
Thank you ;) glad to help;)
This is perfect for a beginner just getting into ground handling! Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video! Extremely valuable information.
Thank you for your time to watching it 🤪 glad you find it useful 🙏
These videos you're producing are pretty amazing and helpful! I must have watched both of your ground handling videos multiple times. Great job and keep them coming. BTW... Your English is just fine and your presentation skills are just fine too!
Thank you for nice comment, glad to know people understand my bad EN :) and my presentation. Stay safe and wish you lots of amazing flying days!!!
Thanks for your tips peter ! Can’t stop rewatching this video,so helpful 👍👍
Thank you 😉 Arnaud
One of the best ground handlings videos learning ever, great thank you Peter.
Glad you like it and learn something with me 🙏
Hello Peter,
I am a beginning paraglider and your video’s are really helpfull and clear!
Thank you for your effort and being out in the cold and wet all day to help us beginners! Much appreciated!
You are welcome, glad to hear you finding my videos helpful;)
I first found this one almost a year ago before I had a wing, and have watched ALL your videos. Now that I just have my first wing and playing with GH this is the *perfect* video as I have experienced all these situations (in my first week, ha). I use the C technique to control the wing and it works great. I also found myself falling into the trap you show of pulling the As too hard and collapsing in light wind. These are great tips and I'm using them 2 1/2 years after you made the video! You're a master my friend.
That is awesome that my video helped you to understand how to control wing. It is nice feeling that my video was useful and keep you safe as well. Hope one day we can fly together so you can show me all your tricks 😉 Thank you John 🙏
I have been flying a powered paraglider for a long time. I learned a lot from this video. I wish I had this to review 10 years ago. Great job !!!
I wish to start fly 10 year ago :) but you know is never late to learn new trick :) Enjoy your flying mate.
Thank you Peter for getting your wing all wet for your demonstration to us. Your instruction was very helpful and informative. Your are truly advancing the sport. Thank you so much!
You are welcome mate, wing is dry and ready for flying :) Thank you for watching.
Very nice! You show us how to handle the glider in difficulut wind conditions on the ground and you show us the mistakes that we should avoid. Very good!
Cheers Georg 🙏 practice will make you a master ! Step be step you will master your wing 👍
I just found your channel and I love the way you explain everything. Thank you for taking the time to make your videos. I will hopefully be buying a wing soon so I can start learning this fascinating sport. You just got another subscriber.
Thank you mate ;) glad you like my chanel, hope my chanel wont bored you ;)Stay safe in your training !
LEFT ONE! You did a fantastic video with good explanations. Thanks Peter. Old video but always fresh information.
Thank you 😉 glad you find it useful. Take care and stay safe!
Thanks to you, i've finally understood how to empty the sand from my wing, by putting it upside down !!! Great job you've done here Peter. A BIG thank you.
Thank you for watching :) Glad to help. Keep your wing sand free :D and learn back flying, good skill to learn :)
I have a Wasp since november 2016 (still a BGD)
Good glider for learning to back fly or Upside down. Very difficul with Cure or above as aspect ratio is high:)
Thank you Peter for your detailed and very informative video, even in that cold weather. Really appreciate your efforts!
Coold and wet :) Glad to help any time :D Thank you for watching and comment.
Perfect. Thank you very much. You are very clear when you explain ground handling techniques.
Great tips as always Peter, keep them coming :)
Amazingly useful video... I wish I had seen it before being dragged last week...
I've learned so much now. I feel more confident for my next groundhandling.
Thanks so much!
😁 important is to learn from mistakes 🙏 even better to learn from someone else mistakes 😉 Thank you for watching, wishing happy flying and quick progress !
AWESOME VIDEOS! Would love to see more on ground handling, even if it´s just going over similar explanations on another day.
Will do my best to do another video but will take time as here in UK is winter and difficult to find nice weather
One of the best tutorial ever made. Simple and affordable
Thank you 🙏 glad you like it 🙃 take care and stay safe 👍
I never saw someone control a wing on the ground with b-lines. Of COURSE it makes great sense. Thank you for bringing this to light. I can't wait to try it out. Nicely done.
Be carefull and take care ! Thank you
Dear peter,
I learned so much from your 3 ground handling videos.
I am beginner and was out there today learning how to fly the wing.
As I had watched your videos so many times I was able to anticipate what the wing will do and take actions before it went wrong.
I got dragged by strong gust suddenly and managed to kill the wing by wrapping the breaks as you showed it.
I also got my wing to correct itself when it flipped up side down by using the breaks and walking along with it.
The wind was bit too strong today and so called it a day.
I will choose another day when the wind is not too strong.
Thank you so much for your teaching videos.
I appreciate warmly.
regards,
ken
Lovely job mate ;) Start with light winds and when you will progress then try stronger conditions. Glad to hear my GH videos helped you! Stay safe mate do not do any stupid stuff ! Thank you for comment ;)
Man, you are the Master of GH technics!!! Congrats from Brazil!!!
Thank you 😁 you will be as good as i am when you will practice !
Great job here, Peter, learning a lot. Keep doing it, please. thank you!!!
Thank you very much 🙏
Great video. I'm just starting out, and this helped me troubleshoot some of the mistakes that I was making. Especially since there was low unpredictable winds like what it is like where I kite. I really appreciate you getting your wing all wet for us!
Thank you ;) glad my video helping you with your GH. Stay safe mate!
Peter great video. Very informative. I especially liked the point about flying you wing when is upside down that it is the same as backfly in a stall
Thank you :) no one do back fly in GH so i show back flying in GH existing :) Wery useful stuff to learn;)
This is what I've been searching for! I was actually glad the wind was light as there are loads of videos of people showing off their back flying and heli tricks in strong wind, but no simple clear demonstrations with simple instructions and description of what is going on. Until now! :D Absolutely perfect for low airtime CP's like me.
If you do another ground handling video I'd love some tips on wing tip touches. Whenever I try it my glider usually just ends up folding into a neat pile as soon as the tip is anywhere near the ground. I just can't keep it flying. Either that or it feels like it's dragging as soon as it's not directly above me
Thank you mate :) Doing my best to help you out guys :) Check out my first GH video. There is tutorial about wing tip touching over ground and Cobra launchces. Hope will help you understand it better. Thank you for watching. Enjoy your time with glider !
I'm glad to find this vidio that explained with so much patience. Thanks!Keep going.
Thank you for learning with me 🙏
Your video is amazing Peter! Best on TH-cam. Thank you very much! I hope you make more!
Thank you for nice comment and watching ;) Glad to hear my videos helping people to stay safe :) will do my best do more useful videos.
Thanks for the video Peter. Hopefully I can quit unhooking every time I flip the wing now. Yours is the first video I've seen explaining these techniques. Thanks again for taking the time to make these. I know it's a lot of work.
You are welcome :) yes is taking time make videos but is nice to see my videos are helful to others :)
So far this is the best explanation of wing ground handling.
Thank you 🙏
Very professional "down to earth" (Lol) instructions with clear visual demonstrations - Time link in description is very helpful - Thanks
Thank you so much :) have nice and safe training and loots of beautiful flights ;)
This is so great! Thank you. How do I let my wing down slowly? It kills me when it smacks on the ground, that can't be good for it.
Just finished. Easily the best ground handling video on TH-cam.
Thank you 🙏
Peter, thank you so much taking up my questions & other points for making this video & helping us understand the control & philosophy at a beginner level (like I am)😁
It helps to know, what exactly we do wrong which results in "oops" moments too often.
Really appreciate your willingness to help & your time & effort in sharing such valuable lessons.
I'll get the opportunity to do & learn in coming weeks. I'll come back with more questions & my videos (if they aren't too bad) 😁
Special Thanks for doing it even when the weather was so cold and wet. You're awesome.
Best wishes & many thanks,
Bhushan.

I find that your videos are very informative so informative that I actually subscribe today. I have been struggling with ground handling and I learned today that I am not supposed to pull the A's up just guide them up and pull with my hips from your video! Thank you thank you thank you! I am heading out now to try and kite again! Thank you thank you thank you! You just solved my problem, every time I would kite use my A lines, it would go up but it would come down because I was pulling on the A's, I know now that I should not do that just guide them! By the way did I say thank you? Ha haha! Dee Zee
Yes you did say Thank you 🤣 you are welcome , glad to help. Really appreciate that my videos are helpful! Make sure you feel your glider by hips, be smooth and relax ! Then everything will make sence. Thank you for watching, take care, stay safe !
