PERFECT TIMING! My PG instructor whom I'm booked with in Sept knew I was a motor pilot and I bumped into him the other week and he took a real brief second to explain he will want to see the A and C inflation method. I sort of had an idea of what he was talking about, but wasn't a 100 percent. This cleared it up real nice! Thanks Chris!
Friendly, informative, succinct. Great style and energy and the editing and sounds were cool, your mic made it easy to hear the great advice-great production. Cheers!
I learned the A's & C's method from my instructor as well. I'm no expert, but I have kited way more hours than my actual air time, and I would recommend throwing some opposite side hip twist action in when the glider is trending to one side and you keep having to chase it. Great video, thanks for sharing.
@@SuperFlyParaglidingSchool Hi Chris, i also teach A´s & C´s method here in Germany. For me it works even better if I take the A´s with the right hand when I turn out right after pulling up the glider. I used to do it like you but now it works even better for me. All the best Alex
Awesome video. I am a big fan of this method. May I add you should watch your left hand more the brake line is rubbing on the riser. I only say this as I have gone through a set of riser's and a brake line or 2 because of this. Brake lines eat riser's up if you do it to much. Love your video's
Great stuff Chris, wish more pilots had this skill. I'd bet that more than half the pilots I watch at PG events pull up in strongish winds with no preset way to kill their wings should things go "sideways," except trying to rely on the almost worthless method of pulling massive brakes back, only to find out they don't have enough brakes to keep their wing down, resulting in getting dragged or plucked. Although it's not visible in this video, I'm guessing you also teach the "scissors" method of As and Cs, where you move the As the opposite direction sideways that you are moving the Cs sideways, when the wing gets off-center overhead, which adds even more "steering" of the wing while pulling up.

Thanks so much Chris for all of your very helpful instruction both on the hill and virtually here on UA-cam... From your most LITERAL student Jared...
I heard Chris S wears sunglasses so people don’t know he’s doing everything with his eyes closed.
It's not a rumor it's true
As he would say "True Story".

BEEN waiting for the SF Kiting video!!! Adding to The LIST! Thanks Chris...can't wait to see you!

Hip twist is the best. We will do a video about it. Thanks!

Valuable info right there. I hope to make it out there!
Excellent content!

❤ awesome thx Cisco
This can be adapted to paramotoring too. I see so many pilots with no ground handling skills
Awesome!
golden tips
Let's see some tandem ninja skills next!
Andy,
where are you, dude?
Invite for this channel Tom "Santacruise" from Mission Possible! It would be a great action video from Utah!
Be short is a good tip.
