thank you.

Once I made exactly the opposite as you recommend. Excellent video! Thank you

Sorry you had this experience. Condolences to his friends and family.

Would it be possible to have the name and brand of the yellow and pink wing, with the blue line on the front, please? 'cos I fly to have pretty wings !

I fly for the scenery. I do prefer my higher B because its faster if the wind gets up. So many of my pilot friends have gone to a C, had a prang and cone back to a B. I love my rush 6. Unfortunately, i put on a bit of weight, so I'm now flying it a couple of kilos over the max. Good motivation to stay healthy tho. I had to slow down on the pancakes. lol

This video has confirmed what I have been trying to figure out about myself. Why the hell do I want to keep paragliding after I crashed about 5 weeks ago and had to be rescued by helicopter due to injuries and not being able to walk due to the unbelievable pain. I am lucky to be alive for sure and take full responsibility for my actions of flying in weather I should not have been flying in. I had to have three vertebrae fused lower back. I said I was not going to fly any more, but I want to fly again, just smarter and realize my limitations as I progress and learn. It is like an addiction for me and even before I crashed, I would have personal debates with myself in my head as to why I even do this sport. I originally thought it would be a good way to over come my fear of falling to my death, dreams I have had in the past riding a bike or motorcycle and hit a little jump and catch air and then start getting higher and higher then start to fall. I always knew I was dreaming but it did not help during the dream. When I wake up from it, all sweaty and scared to death as if it were real. I went and tried sky diving first, just a tandem jump, it was fun, my thought as we tumbled out of the air plane and looking down at the ground, so this is what it feels like to fall to your death....It did not feel like anything. I realized to do this sport I need a runway, airport, airplane etc. Not really somethings I have access to without spending a lot of money. Something I don't have much of to begin with. I looked into paragliding, I live in Salt Lake City, UT so point of the mountain is right there. All the while wondering why I am really doing this sport or is it therapy?? I was scared sometimes to launch, so I did a lot of kiting which is a benefit for sure. I have had hard landings but as time went on I got better at understanding my wing and gear and learned to trust it but still, get scared or nervous sometimes when I get bounced around or go into sink which is a butt pucker for sure. That stuff I got used to or at least do not tense up and stay relaxed. I ask myself why do I do this?? I know the consequences and chances of something going wrong possibly will be costly if not even lose my life for this thing I love to go do but have so many reasons why I love it. At the end of the day, I know I am a better person if anything for myself but I think all around for every aspect of my life paragliding has opened up someone I did not know before. Even with this crash, I was blown back on a heavy thermal day, first time to bench up and then times that by 2. Amazing lift but just couldn't get down and should have stopped flying way earlier than I did. Even having fused disks I am wanting to get out there again but in a more controlled environment. I have learned from this experience very costly, but I know it's not wrong to have emotional needs met by doing something that scares the hell out of me sometimes but at the same time I want more of it!! I feel accomplished after landing and good few hours of self fulfillment and adrenaline as well as more progress. I have been doing it for three years now and have a life time of learning still. I had just turned 60 before the crash, but it's only a number. I ride a ZX 1400 and yes, I love to top it out close to 200 mph. Just for a second, then take it down to reality. Always have had a motorcycle, probably for the same reasons. Still a kid in this body for sure and not going to change that ever. Ari thanks, I have watched many of your video's and I love your cold harsh honesty in all of them. Thanks. Happy flying!!

how do you attach everything to the flight deck to make sure it doesnt fall off if it gets a bit lively? I have to carry an Airband radio too in my area (Paramotor) Cheers

It's a very expensive sport and the people in it are generally not very kind two new people.

Why do you take off with a handful of brake applied? Is it not better to be hands up with elbows forward and brake line slack taken up, leaning into chest strap to achieve maximum takeoff speed?

Interesting clinic, but the price of €5000 is crazy. Even 4000 would be more than enough, if you compare with your competitors/ colleagues. Have you even got booking?

This is really useful, more of this! Real flights tracklogs, if we could have video footage to support it, whoa amazing stuff, thanks for sharing.

Never been, how does the flying compare to Annecy?

Beautiful!

Thank you for your drawings and demonstrations. I’m new to this so I’m trying to absorb as much as possible while learning. I’ll definitely be getting that book “Mastering Paragliding”. Any affiliate links you recommend for a commission. Id like to support.

Great 👍

start at 3min...dont waist time with intros like this

Thank you this hits home on sooo many different levels! I appreciate you and your insight into this topic and wish more within the community looked at this sport the way you do.

I want to start in this sport and definitely with my age is just to enjoy I only fly with 2 reserve parachutes 🪂 kkk

sounds like there is no tradeoff so I'm asking, what's the tradeoff? :D

Hahahaha making me realize why Ive just started looking into paragliding 😊

Extraordinario consejo! Gracias

I will never fly in my lifetime , but, amazing explanation. Scary and thrilling at the same time. I wish I were younger.

May the Devine Spirit guide you on this journey brother . I am a 61 year old beginner , and I am very interested and will be following you on this journey . My hope is Love will surround us all .❤🙏🏻❤️

Fucking sand paper to my softest parts , I don’t want to hear this shit . Quit following you when you shared about that misfortunate person that lost his life , why ? All the wrong reasons I am sure . Horses taught me how to communicate with people . I am in training to paraglide , only twenty flights deep and $10.000 out of pocket .Why ? Honestly still not sure . I have quit drugs and alcohol and full time work to live this adventure ; ( and that still doesn’t satisfy my why ! Possibly the knock on the door of the reaper and prove I am not afraid , ( I probably am ) This Journey is thus far fulfilling and exciting and frustrating . Learning all things necessary is a challenge the weather and testing and reading are pushing boundaries I haven’t faced since failing High School . Examining myself and motivation is again new to me . As I push forward I will endeavor not to become callous to reality . And keep expanding my vision of love, empathy and passion for life . Jerry Lee .. P S thank you for sharing your experience !

Definitely works and good setup but not reliable in a long term (for competition).

……Jealous……….Cloud base at 13,000ft?? Here in the UK it is invariably 500ft and if you can fly ’far’ you are likely to end up in the sea!! 🤪🤣

I am new paraglider at 18 and got lucky to buy a 400 dollar ozone buzz z3 and have been inspired with your content since. Hopefully I can become as skilled as you and utilize the science of the air to become an even better pilot! I'm in Florida so my options for paragliding are mostly limited to groundhandling since I don't have a paramotor. But it's fine since I needed the months to learn groundhandling because I wouldn't be prepared for a motor back then

Ed Conover is such a great guy! I fly with him at my home sites, i got to fly with him at Woodrat last weekend. Such a good guy, and he has definitely taught me some things In my slow progression. Definitely great to be able to have mentors that are happy to help. And can explain things in a way that understands.

Where are you launching from on these flights? Also how do you get back? Hitchhike?

Nice flights! great views! and that speed bar sounds interesting. keep rocking sky homie!

Hell ya, re-launch for the win. Chop that wood! Love hearing these highlights

11:18 mindset?

I am not condoning self teaching but I am self taught, but I have an extensive background in BASE and HALO, but I am self taught on paragliding and paramotoring, I am still overly cautious about when, where, and how I fly.

Old video, but I still laughed my ass off.

Many wise words, thankyou.

You mention in first solution- "ringing the bell" ie. full brake pull.- but not which side. Maybe its obvious but do we assume that is TOWARD the SAME SIDE , in the direction of the cravat/ collapsed wing tip? it seemed like that (same side) based on your body language indicating right hand side to illustrate cravat and brake pull in video. One thing you didn't mention which i noticed during a recent significant cravat was how far away from the collapsed wing tip i had to lean and as a result how difficult was to pull the stabilio or reach the effected lineset to adjust. #1:Staying calm was certainly helpful. Same question for the spin/stall technique (around8:00) would you spin stall towards the already cravatted side as iI would've thought. or away from the cravat . You don't indicate direction, in either case. I would think it would be obvious (*towards cravat) )however just to be sure I'll ask the stupid question. Thank you for the clarification/ confirmation. *edit. you did say "same side "towards the end when describing the deliberate second assymetrical as a solution to collapse. edit* One thing i did do to solve my issue was dive the wing AWAY from the cravated side using weight shift on the inflated side and then reinflate the pressure across the wing span with inside brake (away from cravat) -worked like a charm. big sigh of relief. lol Great videos. appreciate your insight & enthusiasm. Thank you!

Anyone got this book by pdf 🙏🏻

Do you offer flying clinics there. I will be there in early September

This "music" makes this video about unwatchable

That's nuts! Wow!

I never did it need to know what to wear?I'm gonna do it in September.What do I need to do?I'm scared of water but my other partner and me gonna do this in morocco

Love the Infotainment here man! However I would like to add a little touch up. Injuries are only the result of a discrepancy in between workload and work capacity. Therefore an athlete that doesn't normally work out should maybe first work to a capacity of sustaining an hour in zone two, which is definitely not an easy task. only if that base is acquired i would recommend to slowly start dipping your toes into some zone four stuff as a intro into intensity and to see how your body reacts. a great start for someone would be the C25K program which gets you running for 5k straight pretty much without injury. Done that and still interested? Do the whole thing again this time with your pack! did that? your good to go for the advised above. in building true endurance I would go as far as to suggest an 80/20 split. where 80% of your workouts represent Zone two and 20% come in that zone four. That is if your goal is to become a beast, get absolutely gassed and remain injury free!
