- Flare Moustache 18 raw and uncut, small dune turbo flaring.
This was a really fun session, pushing the limits of small dune soaring, and learning where the Flare Moustache can go. Soaring a 1-2m high dune like this was never really possible on a normal mini wing, and it's so much fun. Flying small dunes like this you have to be right on the upper limit, which makes it more exciting.
I feel like like most sessions on the Flare Moustache I learn something new, even after a few hundred hours. I never thought of flying behind the dune like this, it's not possible on a normal mini wing, and it had me laughing out a loud while I was doing it.
This session I forgot my shoes. Hence the flip flops. I don't like to fly in flip flops, but prefer to have some sort of protection on my feet.
I hope you enjoy this little clip! Thanks for watching

YEEEOW!! Makes me want to go a Mo every time I watch these Broeyyy! Sicko! 🎉🎉
Yeh it does 🥳 Can’t wait to see you rippin on one mate
Off the charts.............. session!
Cheers mate ❤️
Dune gooning to a whole new level!!
Mini dune goon 🥳
Awesome….it appears that you’re wing is above the rotor when flying behind the dunes… that aspect really impressed me!
Hey James, thanks man, this was a fun one 🙂
Your right, it is just out of the rotor. It impresses me too, amazing machine.
I always think of where my wing is in relation to rotor, flying terrain or following people. But your margin is getting small when your considering where your wing is and not your body, but it's interesting to feel out, little by little.
Love this!!!
Thanks for letting me know Scott
Awesome feeling, I’m planning on getting myself a mustache 🍀
I think you'll enjoy it mate, its changed flying for me, I'm sure it'll do the same for you.
That little laugh 😂 so good!
😅
Soooo good I had to watch this 73 times….74 in another 6 mins ❤
Cheers Simon 🖖
Haha love the flip flop foot drags
Haha thanks man. I prefer to fly with shoes but forget them this trip 😅
Glorious.
Thanks Ed!
Your having a blast , nirvana!
Yeh mate. So much fun 🙂
in flip flops- epic
Haha yeh, I forgot my shoes. It wasn't planned, but better than nothing
I love your videos
Thanks Joe!
seriously incredible flaring. behind the dune is insanity. rotor must only be a few feet back from the dune with that terrain
Thanks man!
top !!!!
Thanks mate!
Epic!
Thanks man
How come it works to go behind the dune like that? Is it that the dune is so low the kite is still sitting higher than the zone where the wind turns down? I so want to be able to do this.
Yeh. My wing is still in the lift band. And the Mo having the penetration it does I can get quite far back and still make it out.
It blows me away what positions I can put it in and get out of, so much so you might here me laugh out loud at times.
Nice. Where ? Sunny Coast ?
A bit further south mate 🙂
I really want one
I know the feeling mate
so good vibes you had i suppose :-) where is this amazing spot ?
Thanks mate. North Coast, NSW
The real challenge here is to keep your havaianas on 🤣
😂😂
DUDE!!! This is awsome, are Mustache's fine for a first Wing or is it more advanced.
Hey Joe.
Thanks mate!
Good question. Depends on a few things really. Sites you would be learning on, sport history/skills and the instructor or mentor you have around.
Answers is yes! Sadly! But I’m putting the work in to get one, one day!
Oi matey get them to reinforce the wingtips with some heavier fabric for ya tip drags etc etc ala kite scuff pads if ya want theres a few gliders down stairs we could frankenstein some on or just chop off my pi3 winglets and slide em on with a little sellys kwik grip spray 😂
The wing tips do have different fabric. But similar pads to a tube kite might help hey 😂
Quite similar to what we have here in Ireland, what’s the wind speed and weight load of you atm
I was just looking at the coastline of Ireland on maps the other day, looks like you have some great terrain.
Is the summer your flying season? Are there better months than others?
All details of the conditions are in the description, but,

@@CoreySymes We do have some spectacular coastline (and also some beautiful and remote mountain ranges), but are cursed with weather that's unpredictable at best, and predictably terrible at worst.
Summer is definitely the best time of year, temperatures rarely climb into the 30s and we usual get several weeks at a time of decent flying weather. We see a lot of rain during the other 3 seasons so it's really a matter of seizing the opportunities when they come. Prevailing wind here is SW so west coast is probably your best bet if you're coming to visit (though I do most of my flying on the north coast).
Phenomenal video btw, it's incredible what the mustache can do in the right hands!
