this is such a good video. It really helped me a ton. I actually was finally able to go fully nose-down in a spiral today for the first time and not have to fight a collapse on exit!
Another thing to lose height really fast without as much risk or strain is to go full pull on the speedbar while having big ears on, the sink rate is really high and you can still steer and observe your surroundings well. Also this can be done for a long long time unlike the spiral which will be too hard on most pilots' bodies.
@@rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Of course, but it is much safer and produces a very good forward penetration. And you can do a spiral in big ears for a lower g manouver.
@@TheGrundigg Sigma 10 manual: Do not fly spirals or sharp changes of direction with big ears applied; the increased loading carried by fewer lines can damage the structure. Moreover, how do you exit a spiral dive while holding down the bigears?
@@pierreb6860 I can see why they would put it in the manual. I am not talking about hardcore spiral dives as this would be hard to achieve anyway but it's quite a simple weightshift to the outside to come out of a spiral (not face down) with ears. You should look up the newest Theo De Blic video. He talks through and shows many rapid descent techniques with big ears spiral as one of them.
Hi I fly with paraglider for 30 years now. Spiral is a dangerous maneuver and killed people. I love to spiral since I was a student. It is useful to go down quickly. Once I was in a spiral and when I released break it kept going. Just one of the moments I stayed calm and did the right thing. Paragliding cross country is dangerous. Good luck
Thank you so much Pal to share this content for free, soon or later I’ll buy your course, even if I I don’t have any acro ambition, I still love to learn the dynamics of some manoeuvres and apply to my flying skills whenever it is possible. On this video I had clarified some doubts, it is indeed an excellent job what you have done here, hat off. Ciao from Italy
I always thought it would be cool to do a simulator as shown in this video. However, repetition is key I think. I notice if too many weeks pass between high G maneuvers, I get more tunnel vision than if I’m staying current.
Dont try it without an instructor, or atleast with a reserve! Make sure you got good altitude! I dont care if you die, but every accident gives this sport a bad name
thank you pal you got me straight to Siv to learn stall and spiral dive I don't need it but we fly we never know when things change, I bought your package

don't train those maneuvers for yourself. go and book an SIV training!

This is usually the first descent technique taught to students, but the descent rates are pretty low compared to a spiral.

Hi Pal i have been following you for 10 years..Thanks for all 👌👌👌

Great vid. A cautionary of going too far past deep spiral. The disorientation can complicate exiting

Would be great to have a lockdown special offer on the series
I hope I could fly with you someday Pal!
Thanks for sharing greatly appreciated
Hi Pal, sehr informativ und sehr gut erklärt. 👍
Merci pour le cadeaux 😉
Thanks for the gift, great job. 👍💕
Where is this G force Machíne shown in the video!?
Gerlitzen, Austria
You are saying to use more or less brake a lot but not say witch one :(
Amazing, instructive video.
I have a question. How many G you reached in the nose down spiral, please?
Should be around 4G if I am not mistaking.
Very good Bro
🙏🔥
thank you sir
Hi Pal, is there any code needed for the discount? Or is the offer already over?
This is great! Where can I go to get anti-G training?

Szia Pál. Egy magyar feliratozás kiràly lenne vagy magyar nyelven is elmondani.Komoly az ernyő! Tisztelettel egy sportàrsi rajongòd.

fantastic! thnks!!!
Muy bien explicado, muchas gracias. Algún video explicandolo en español no haces? saludos!
Thank you. So well explained
Appreciate you sharing this 🙏
Buenisimo el video gracias muy ilustrativo y completo
High Gforces when spiraling to loose height? Answer is a spiral with large ears (2 A-lines each side). same sink rate but with almost no G Forces.)
fantastic video
The best!
Woww
