    The perfect super-long righthand wave, and the dunes to fly moustache.
    Omfg, I'm so jealous of your life dude xD

    Love it. I’m sat in my Ute here in WA with my Mo in the back, looking out to a bleak horizon.
    It’s blown out and raining. Can’t fly, so watching this fills the void 😂 loving it

    Awesome flying!! Looks like a lot of work to find the right winds and weather. Looks addicting! I fly a paramotor because I'm lazy... I'll have to pick up this sport someday. Thanks for documenting the trip!

    • @CoreySymes
      @CoreySymes  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks mate. It’s a lot of work on an average forecast 😂
      I’m really keen to get a motor, you could fly everyday. Maybe I shouldn’t 🙃

      @@CoreySymesI definitely love the motor! Well, I love what it enables. I'm sick of 2-stroke engines though. When battery tech enables me to fly 2-3 hours without landing, I will drop this stinky gas ICE motor in a heartbeat!
      Can't fly everyday... Plus where you love 20-40 kph winds, we paramotors like 0-10 kph winds, mostly in the morning and evening because we don't love thermals. We can fly in them, but mostly we want butter calm air so we can fly low and kick the tops of trees and fields and foot-drag through grass. Much like your shore surfing!
      Is there a name for what you do on the shoreline down low, versus the traditional paragliding where pilots are seeking cloud tops and thermals and going for max flight distance? I've considered paragliding, but I'm not sure my interest is held chasing thermals and trying to go the farthest. Cruising the beach shoreline down low and popping up and down again seems way more interesting to me!

    • @CoreySymes

      I understand the motor conditions, that’s what I mean I could fly everyday, combining the two.
      Anyway. Coastal soaring is what I’m doing. Or Flaring, with the Moustache. It is a Parakite, not a Paraglider.
      Great fun, highly recommend 🙂

      @@CoreySymes Ahhh got it. Absolutely, paraglide high wind days, paramotor low wind mornings and evenings. Totally. I'm addicted I think!
      Coastal soaring, got it, writing it down, setting a goal. Parakite, cool. I saw the Moustache first on Tucker Gott and Judson Graham's channels. They mostly do Paramotor stuff, but played with the Moustache when it first came out, seems awesome! Thanks for the detailed info Corey, I really appreciate it. Cheers!

      Haha, that old thing rusted out so bad the cab came off the chassis. I expect to do the same thing to this one ☺️

    That looks like way too much fun! I have been flying speed wings since 2009, currently on an old ozone bullet 14 and have gotten the chance to soar it a little bit in the Canadian rockies but mostly just down flights. The Mustache looks pretty cool! Great videos sir! 🤘👍

      I'm on an R3 15! Love the wing but feel like I could have more fun and fly a little bit safer on a moustache 18! Happy flying!@@CoreySymes

    • @CoreySymes
      @CoreySymes  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeh. They are just different wings, meant for different things
      I do love the feel of a Speedwing in the mountains, flying on the bridge, I love it.
      But the Mo wins for soaring by a long way.

    @benthegreywolf3674 ปีที่แล้ว

    yiew, sick one.I enjoyed that :)...I think I prefer the classic gopro over the 360 when its a head cam. I can see and vibe abit more with your flying when it dosnt have that 360 skewing it a bit...though on a big pole the 360 is sick. Thanks for putting this together, I do like the long edits too! Broady is on my hit list :)

    • @CoreySymes
      @CoreySymes  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks man. Really appreciate the feedback.
      I think the GoPro is better for this format, and 360 for vertical.
      I love Broady, but my gosh is it fickle to get >20 knots and right direction. Worth checking if your headed up my way though.

    Nice video mate. Just got myself a Moustache 13. havent had a chance to soar it yet. What do you think are the best winds for it?

    • @CoreySymes
      @CoreySymes  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks mate!
      I’ve only soared the 13 in Denmark, maybe 20hrs, so don’t have much experience on it.
      Depends on the site, small dunes up to 30 knots, big ridge 100m probably around 15 knots.
