Can’t say it enough! Everything about AviatorPPG just screams professionalism and integrity. Even though I watch these videos and practice weight-shifting in my car, 😂I can’t wait to train with you guys and I’m finally saving up for my training and gear specifically with AviatorPPG. 👍 Great content!
Hey man, I found you in middle school back when you did gaming clips. One of my favorite series was your music discovery over COD gameplay. I still listen to those artists 5 years later. Love you man and wishing the best for you and your loved ones 🥰
I REALLY appreciate these videos. The explanations taught/expressed help me to much better understand nuances of why the wing is doing what it's doing, and I'm confident that they will make me a safer and better pilot. Understanding the "WHY" things do what they do is so VERY beneficial, because once I understand the why, I don't have to try to just remember what to do/not do, I now truly understand the importance of my moves, and can better project the implications of my actions in future situations. Thanks again, and please keep these videos coming!!
Thanks AJ. By far, the most instructive PPG video I have seen for the sport. I continue to re-watch, suggest it to others whenever we discuss the various challenges us new pilots encounter, and I will continue to learn from it. Aviator: very much appreciate this series!
I appreciate how you emphasized the importance of weigh-shift. It is underused in my opinion. Keep the speed and get the turn you want without loosing lift and speed. Weight-shift is such a better way to maneuver. Thanks for pointing that out.
Love this series. I would really like to see you guys do an episode in this series about how to read and react to different things the glider is telling you. I mean like warnings before a stall or spin etc. how it feels and what to do, active piloting etc.
I'm a paraglider pilot with no motor and don't want one and I'm learning to glide and I probably will fly as close to the style you're describing with no motor as possible. My landing intention is to fly the last 100 ft of altitude off with no brakes come in a trim speed Wing level and when I get to the bottom of this line at the ground 1 ft above the ground I will pull the brake to a full flair. I'm trying to eliminate the transition from leveling to full flair into a transient so it happens quickly and I can't lose my level on the roll axis. If I'm coming in a trim speed, I can think it I can see it I can fly it.
18:28 I don't really understand how a sat isn't just a round spiral. The technique to get into them seems the same to me, too. What am I not understanding?
I hear you. I tried for a contest but that didn’t happen (thanks Derek). What did happen is I made a separate account within my regular account and called it PPG. I then started setting aside some funds every week to cover the costs I expected.
@@jimcr120 Jim I wish i could do that, but I am one of those people that is under employed. I work just one day a week for two hours a day. I have been trying to get a full time job for the last few years, but not having any luck. I think it's ageism in why I am not being hired. My degree is in applied arts and they want to hire young fresh talent. But I am going to keep trying to land photo editing and or photography jobs. Because I really want to fly a paramotor before I die. Have a great day!
11:58... Man those brakes look deep into waist level. That scares the shit out of me at that height, especially since you started this video saying keep them above nipples. Maybe it is just my viewing angle in this video.
Why cant we have a baloon type but same shape pressurised inflated one parafoil wing with inert gas, this will make it more safe even if the wind blows wrong direction, can be infaled in seconds jjst like a car air bag with pressurised inert gas from canister, instead of explosion, no need to inflate the airofoil with ram air, this is how I feel not necessary I am right, but thats why I share it with you correct me if you feel I am wrong, you are a professional.

Thank you so much for the kind words! We can't wait to fly with you!

That’s awesome man! Please stay in touch! I might start gaming again soon!
I love these videos AJ is a great Instructor, explains everything with great amount of details.
I’ve been in aviation for over 25 years and it’s always great to review concepts like these. Thanks for sharing!
Great job on these...... Thank you.
Thank you clear understanding great work.
So glad I watched this after training, it makes since now that I have perspective.

Completely agree. People learn things differently, and similarly I too like to know the how’s and why’s.
Thank you so much. Brand new quad pilot here, working on my foot launch now.
Awesome content! Thanks for sharing so much great insight!
I love these videos. I'm currently saving like a madman to come see you guys in person so this helps to further prepare myself.
I am loving this series and the more technical explanations! Can't wait to train with you guys in July.

So glad you're enjoying it! More coming soon!
Fantastic job, thanks a lot!
I am almost 100 flights in and not ready to footdrag just yet!

You mean what Dell teaches
It was actually 8-9 years ago I remember music Monday’s!! I loved music mondays
Wonderful video. Very educational!
Brilliant stuff - many thanks.
Luvly Jubbly 🙂 ... got no idea why I'm only just NOW seeing this one? ...
Super take-offs and landings btw 👍
Thanks . I did learn a lot . Very useful information as usual .
Thanks for the video’s ...love it.👍
Great information 👍
Great stuff thanks!
So those gift wrapping manouvers should only be done on birthdays and other special occasions then?

You can only watch people pick up fast food so many times so, once again, thank you for taking me to school.
This comment made me laugh out loud! It's our pleasure!
@@aviator it's like the public library without me messing up your bathroom... :)
i sure hope to win the contest someday so I can do this!

Did anybody else read this title and think it was about wing overs lol.
Second? Lol
