Extra !!!! Le décollage et l'atterrissage m'ont halluciné !! Un oiseau !! ça c'est du vol !! Pas besoin d'aller bien haut pour avoir cette sensation... J'adore ! 🤩
New sub and how did this just now show on my feed after years of HG searches? Love everything about this vid. It is now my alarm clock on the TV that gets me going in the morning. Great way to wake up. 5 mins of hit the ground running (possibly bad choice of words) for the new day. Thanks!
Nice flying Tony, watched a few of your videos on here and saw you had flown the malibu 2 and the falcon 4. Could you advise me on which you think is best for a new pilot
Hi mate , any of the floater class gliders will be good for a beginner. However, if it's low dune Flying you want to learn , I would suggest not to get a new one , get a second hand because you'll probably break a few things while learning , no point trashing a new glider .
That makes sense, thanks! I'm learning to fly and have ordered a new glider... Just got a reason to get another one LOL Or probably my instructor would let me use one of his teaching (beaten) gliders if I buy battens if I break them.
@Rod Loucks I'm sure! In a couple hours I'll have an instruction tandem flight (instructor takes off and lands, the middle is mine) :) a couple of these and maybe another session in the training hill to make sure... Anxious!
Great flying Tony, I'm looking to do a course sometime soon and then get on to my local dunes. I noticed you have used the Malibu 2 and the Falcon 4. Which one of the 2 would you recommend for a new pilot?
+michael Hanley Exactly the question I wanted to ask. Also : why do experts or any other pilot always use 'beginners' hang gliders, such as Malibu, Falcon 4, Airborn FUN for dune gooning ? Rarely I see a double surface in those dune gooning vids.
+DirkDucat hi mate good question , in theory you should be able to fly low dunes with double surface but it would require an enormous a Amount of step by step practice , in my opinion almost too difficult / dangerous to worry about . You don't have the manoeuvrability and forgiving control of the floater . You also need to be able to fly the floater at its full speed range from one moment to the next for proper control on low dunes , in a hp wing on low dunes , your speed would get too high . Just to clarify I'm only referring to very low dunes say from 1 mtr to 3mtrs . Hope this makes sense , cheers
Now I understand it, finally . . . Next question : on a flat beach, without dunes, but with sufficient wind coming from the see, would it be possible to fly ?
Alas if only there was some way to enjoy the video yet not be subjected to this torturous sound? This is truly a paradox that profounds us all. The agony is palpable. I promise you this my musically selective friend, that someday perhaps long into the future, maybe after our time on this earth has passed, future technology will allow our children's children to impart our will and invent a way to watch, yet silence the audio of such an abomination! For now, we can only dream of such a utopia. I wish you the best in your quest for the perfect video.

Yes I`ve always thought that myself, it feels like surfing sometimes.
What a blast, smoking a single surface 👍
Great video, great music. Takes me back to my youth!

Que bueno para practicar,pegado al pizo,tenes relacion de la velocidad y los movimientos de control,En que lugar es ?
Your making it sing Tony ......... enjoy.
Soon you'll really start scaring the hell out of the local dune rabble.
Yeah had to change my turning technique a little to figure this thing out but all good, I love it
Dune flying looks like lots of fun! Gotta do it someday!

Looks like your getting dialed into the feel of the new wing!
Loved this video... mind you, I had Fleetwood Mac's "Little Lies ' playing in the background... try it... PERFECT!
Thanks, have`nt had any trouble yet with the loop, but I have often thought about it.
cheers
this is excellent hang gliding.

I'm looking for a beginner glider, plan to start lessons in 2 months!
@Rod Loucks yep, some confusion with the portuguese equivalent. Btw, I got that new glider and I'm close to doing my first solo flight!
@Rod Loucks I'm sure! In a couple hours I'll have an instruction tandem flight (instructor takes off and lands, the middle is mine) :) a couple of these and maybe another session in the training hill to make sure... Anxious!
Awesome video..., and the music fits...!!
Gaareat flying BTW..!!
That's what I call doon goonin' on steroids, mate! Well done!
Shes a great kite Alan, starting to get used to it now.
Dude! That is so intense!
I like the chandelle type turns, looks to recover well, nice colours also, its nearly time to co-cordinate your harness and helmet colours, lol.
15kts usually, depends on a few variables, - shape of the beach, tide,bouyancy of the air etc.
who made that harness? great flying !
yeah I recon Glen, its bloody dark in there
Wow. That was control :-)
Great video Tony, I need to lift my game on my vids after watching yours. Great for the sport.
Hey Ken, good to here from you, Yeah the kite recovers well, pitty about me though.
Great flying.
Thats low and fast at 1:13 !
Dale caña compadre!
Nice flying!

+DirkDucat no not possible mate
@@DirkHav: If tethered like a kite, like the Wrights.
Perfecto
Nice😎
Song is a fitting choice :) I just hope you don't try to enter the sand ... again :)
This is kinda like surfing, except different.
what wind strength do those dunes work in?
rad vid mate low is the go
Great!
So Cool...but where you have the camera mounted on the dunes, I'm afraid your going to impale yourself on the stick. Eeew
Top ...
Nice
thanks
............... Lilienthal👍🎓🔦💨🌷🇩🇪
WUFF!
great video,terrible music.
How Does That Trashy Crap Noise Relate In Any Way To Hang Gliding! Completely Ruined An Otherwise Enjoyable Video!
