Thank you for posting this foot launch training progression! I'm going to go back to a training hill and copy that incredible run before letting the glider take off. That run is so freaking solid it looks like you're going to get the glider airborne from the flats. Everybody is amazed by your landings, but I think that super-long and powerful foot launch is even more impressive!
Nice launches. Nice Piuma. I followed your advice in one of your recent videos about inserting the tip wands. Thanks, it made the whole set up much easier regarding the Piuma ;-) Cheers amico!
Hey thank you my friend, my friend Alfredo kindly lent me his glider for one day. I can tell you more about the tip wand, don't use your strength to bend the tip wand but focus on stretching the sail, it requires no muscles. I imagine to pull the end of the sail backward and outward
What does this comment mean? Non Italian citizens can only use the small training hill? I don't understand. Can we also fly from up here: th-cam.com/video/ZetEK3xpogw/w-d-xo.html ?? For me, this is the whole point of coming to Garda to hang gliding school. Learn from scratch, get the license, fly high flights like Andrea :)

You got the point! We should run until we feel the right lift (and a bit more) instead of running until a certain distance. 😉
So much power in those launches 👏👏 what a great place to learn
Full throttle on take-off !!
Great video production. Keep up the great work
Thank you a lot. Start to finish- perfect. Good for us......principuants😅😅😅
I love that training hill, just perfect, easy to go up! I wish there was a nice place like that around here!
That hill is a blessing
Spettacolo! Immagino che la parte più bella sia riportare il delta in cima ogni volta... 😊
Esatto, perché si risparmiano i soldi della palestra, dopo guadagno

@@AndreaGhidiniHangGliding Thanks Andrea 😊 I'll try some experimenting next time, but already it's much easier 👍👍👍🤟
BELLISSIMO👌
Great example of how to do flat slope training!
Thanks a lot
Imponente !!!!
Looks awesome
Such shame only Italian citizens can do the high flights learning :(
But it's always ok to use the hill

Nice training hill
That student was a fast learner!
Seems like he's doing good 😅
Those have to be the fastest launch runs ever! You’re a sprinter! almost outrun the glider I think :)
My instructor was really demanding about launch and landing. I'm so grateful now about it
Came back to see and again :)
Il piuma è bellissimo. Sai se potrebbe volare hene con un nanotrike e motore 2T? Grazie.
Si, però bisogna rinforzare la chiglia. In Icaro hanno il kit preposto allo scopo.

Advanced training on the same the hill
Nice hill to learn. Where is this?
Italy, lake Garda
@@AndreaGhidiniHangGliding thank you a lot.
