I was wondering too but maybe its intentional to train for that situation

Yes, this was done on purpose to train pilots on how to exit auto-rotation. In the wild, this scenario can occur when you experience a large collapse, and your wingtip gets a cravat or a line tangle, causing the wing to pull you into auto-rotation. We simulate this situation in our SIV courses to train pilots on how to exit auto-rotation effectively, and to help them become comfortable with uncomfortable situations.

You should train your students to have some common sense and stop participating in such a dangerous activity.

Thank you, we do our best to help pilots to progress in safest way possible.

Before each maneuver, we conduct a comprehensive briefing. We also cover other aspects prior to working on auto-rotation. If the students pull too hard, they know exactly what to do. I assist them with exiting in case they manage to stall the wing during an auto-rotation exit.

haha.. maybe next year, we put microphones and record the inside audio as well

Glad you enjoyed the content

You're welcome to join, we have some sheduled for this year, 27th - 29th July and 1st - 3rd August in Italy over the stunning Lake Garda. www.flyingkarlis.com/siv-lake-garda-with-flying-karlis/

Glad you enjoyed it!

I have a question about the front collapse. If you throw your reserve, and your main shoot is still inflated can you pull the a lines and cause a front collapse and leave the main shoot up there to slow you down more.

Dose not need to be a frontal, can be - Sping, stall, B-Stall and then keep some of it open, just make sure that the wing dose not create "mirrow effect" or "down plain"

@@FlyingKarlis down plane is bad, pulled completely in, would be the second fastest decent. Then the stall. And the rest are kind of even.

We don't really need to pull it compleatly in, we need to make sure that the reserve dose it's job and is above our head, you can keep as much of the main wing out as you like, as long as it is not interfiering with the reserves job.

Sure did

Glad you could learn something useful!

There's always a reserve you can pull out, but you can't control it.

Fun times

Dumb way to die

​@@rickshaw2425practicing these drills actually save lives 😊

​​​​​@@rowill2968 is this pilot practicing for situations that are common under perfect weather conditions? Or do such situations only occur when you fly under bad conditions? Or is it impossible to have perfect conditions and is there always a danger for wind anomalies? Because if you have to drill something that dangerous to be able to save your life, then it should at least be really necessary, no? How high is the chance to die at this "practice", vs. how high is the chance (when flying under best conditions all your life) to die in this sport? This practice looks like adding enormous danger to your life. So is it worth overall to do these drills, in the sense that (despite taking danger during the drill) the chance for a fatal flying crash, at any point in your career (including this drill) will sink BECAUSE you did this practice, as long as you'll stick to perfect conditions in your flying-career? Vs not doing the very dangerous drill (and also sticking to perfect conditions)? Does the answer to this question depend on WHEN in your career you do these drills? Like, if you do them right at the beginning of your flying career, they might be more dangerous for you as you're more prone to make mistakes during a drill? Vs if you do them at the very END of your career the gained training effect didn't help you, as you already have all ever flights behind you? I know nothing about this sport, and from the outside this looks like: "drilling something THAT dangerous, doesn't it mean the pilot is practicing for when he/she will "unnecessarily" put him/herself in danger in the first place?" That's why I separated different hypothetical "lifetime" weather conditions and lifetime discipline. I also wanted to know how much you're in control of eliminating ALL risk when being disciplined sticking to best weather conditions all your life. Is flying under best conditions all your life a pure matter of pilot skills, pilot knowledge, pilot rulebook discipline, or is there ALWAYS (even when sticking to best possible flying conditions) a risk of instant bad wind circumstances, that will put you in danger if you're not reacting very accurately (again, i mean "under perfect conditions, predicted prior to the flight"). I sound like a moron I know, but I'm in a big twist here: I would have loved to try flying those gliders when I was younger, now I'm too old anyways and I HATE the concept of purposefully putting your life at risk. I'm a full on coward all my life never trading risk for fun 😭🤣 I love playing loud musical instruments: tons of fun, zero risk of dying 😜 So is there a way of zero-risk paragliding? Because then I would see the point in the comment above ("what a stupid way to die") - like, if it'd be possible to "paraglide safely", then why not enjoy the beautiful sport that you have and "paraglide safely"... But ok, I get it, not everybody is a coward like me and some people enjoy doing things in extreme ways quite more 😅 I get it, because as a kid I felt like that person. My parents forced me to become a coward lol. And also I respect life quite a lot 😉😅

SIV

Glad you enjoyed this video. I do my best to pass as much knowleage as possible through these videos.

Brett has spent decades thinking about thermals, it was increadibly nice of him to share this with wider paragliding community.

Indeed, it's possible. One of my students started at the age of 60 and, after three years of diligent work, could fly safely in the Himalayas. He even participated in several paragliding competitions. So, starting at middle age is certainly feasible. Regarding costs, this largely depends on your location, accessibility to ideal flying sites, and many other factors, so there's no straightforward answer.

I wouldn't blame the wing; they are incredibly safe given their performance. However, it is up to the pilot to have the necessary skills to operate them. These wings differ from the 3 line wings and require an adjustment period. Unfortunately, merely accumulating hours of flight does not make one a good pilot. There's much more to it than that.

Thank you, glad you like my coaching.

Thank you

Thank you

The event took place during a SIV, so the pilot was fully aware of all potential outcomes and impacts of the maneuver. After the incident, she returned to her training. Subsequently, she successfully performed stunning stalls to back fly maneuvers.

@@FlyingKarlis Hey, Ich weiß das es ein Sicherheitstraining war. Drum habe ich es ja geschrieben. Aber man hängt trotzdem wie so ein Sack drunter 😁

hahaha, sometimes yes sometimes no

Noted

There was non, he managed to recover normal flight.

There's a whole book written about this area - Guide to Chabre and Guide to St. Andre 🥰 Available on shop.flyingkarlis.com

Thank you JerbearJet

You are so welcome!

Thak you - committed to progression 🥰

🤣🤣

Man on a mission!

Beautiful, isn't it 🥰

Should could make it a mandatory SIV figure 😂

Like a rock star 🌟

That's what we do 🥰

Trying my best 🥰
