when you have a knot, almost crash because the wing tends to stall, but still brake considerably on this side close to the landing spot. Interesting piloting skills
Rule number 1: Fly your aircraft! Rule number2: Don't panic! Get it away from the mountain and if there's enough height, try to solve the problem. If there is a knot in your steering line, there is no need to stall the glider. Go to the landing site, do curves only in direction of the shortened line and land it.
Expect the Gradient Freestyle crash, all of these accidents could be prevented by keeping a cool mind in case of knots or other bad situations and by a proper takeoff technique! Spend time on ground handling and you will never again end in trouble while takeoff! Fly safe and allways happy landings!
U sound like a man that knows what he is talkin about!and gives good advice! So can i ask u a question? Where would one buy a used wing thats in good condition? 🤔
Anyone else watching during Lockdown 2020? I was wondering if gliders carry a compass or some other device for the eventuallity of landing in the woods & becoming lost? On my tiny island hikers get lost on our hill even in these days of cellphones; also are these parachutes a write-off after an accident? How much do they cost? Best wishes to all you lockdowned fliers champing at the bit to get back up there!
I´m a beginner, but the guy starting around 1:50 ist flying directly into the Lee at around 2:10 or is driftin into it, isn´t he? Nevertheless I wouldn´t have started with these strong winds.
1:50 really sketchy from the begining. Drifting to that turbulent zone + right side kont problem. I would have hanged on the reserve chute handle immediately just in case. Wind conditions, wind conditions... Even speedbar wont save you.
A. looks like the winds were way to fast to be flying in. He was blown over the backside, from what I can tell, and into some major leeside rotor and sink.
Taking off with the right brake staying from start to finish in the right hand is important and training this on some football field or whatever is more important
Podéis contarlo, esto es lo que importa. Yo también hice parapente en Italia, soy italiano, hasta el 2009, después lo dejé, varias facturas en ellas muñecas, me divertí, pero supe decir basta.
most seem to be inexperience and issues that were not addressed before take off during pre-flight or poor handling that leads to tangles at take off. Others seem like going in or out of a powerful thermal, there's a ring of turbulent air around the thermal that can cause a collapse, if you respond poorly it can cause an out of control spin as observed at 7:13 (under a second view, looks like they stalled the wing out by pulling on the breaks they might have interacted with a thermal that killed their wind speed). I'm still an armchair pilot, so a more experienced pilot can do a better explanation
@@MuraKun this is not a thermal, the pilot was attempting a spin, you can see because he purposely brings the wing to stall before letting go of one side. The second giveaway is the wing is a gradient freestyle.
@Repomeister Can't say I've heard a more stupid comparison. Do you go ride a motorcycle when there is ice all over the road and go fast and expect nothing to happen? No. With a paraglider choosing the conditions is everything. These accidents are easily avoidable by not launching on a shitty day or having the piloting skills to safely fly in strong conditions. Really obvious that this is pilot error and not due to the glider itself... didn't think it needed to be said.
@Repomeister That's a smarmy reply. They do exist but they don't just spawn out of nowhere. Like surfing, you wouldn't go ride a 50 foot wave if you didn't have the skills... unless you're a fool.
@Repomeister They are not an impossibility, they can be handled very easily if you're not making the wrong inputs. Your argument is just wrong, it's not subjective. You can also find out if it's going to be gusty by looking at multiple weather sources and making a decision whether or not to launch when you're actually on the mountain.
But the landing was all his fault. That small knot is not enough to stall a wing. He decided to do a 360 turn when approaching. Is he the same fellow landing hard on his ass around 6:34?
Hi Peter, thanks for the kind words. There is talk that we will bring it out in 2 parts like Bruce's 50/25 ways to fly better. After we have done the French version this year. Though please don't quote me on this until it's official.
With all the fails in 1 location. At what point does somebody come up with the great idea that maybe, just maybe, this is not such a good location for paragliding?
Entre el piloto de la Air Design y el de la Advance lo petan!! Vaya par de inutiles!! Y el piloto de la Advance en el minuto 8.30 parece que tenga parkinson!! Pero quien coño le ha enseñado a volar??

These people are so dangerous for themselves. Especially the guy with the Air Design glider.
Its the same guy in all the clips lol
if it's all the same guy, he should just sell his wings for his own good, then buy an A-wing and only do ground handling for a year.
how is he still alive hahahahh
That's a lot of high performance gliders with low performance pilots!
Hard licks, bad launches, collapsing canopies.. looks good... you go first!
for the paragliders out there check wind sock on 1:35m... top left corner of the video: doom to fail
Forward launch and he would have had a chance maybe for a fun sledder!
Saw that haha amateur hour on the hill 😂
2nd guy i would have unbuckled myself and said No Its Not For Me and walked off🤣🤣🤣
the 3rd guy(1:50) launched with a knot + high winds? WHat happened there?
Rule number 1: Fly your aircraft! Rule number2: Don't panic! Get it away from the mountain and if there's enough height, try to solve the problem. If there is a knot in your steering line, there is no need to stall the glider. Go to the landing site, do curves only in direction of the shortened line and land it.
Honestly, the amount of ppl launching with too strong wind to begin with is too damn high.
Anybody with the experience can comment on the second to the last vid at 8:29? Pretty sure gems can be found there. Where the inputs correct etc..?
he was applying this technique very popular in catalonia: ua-cam.com/video/iSnTa89uu78/v-deo.html
Nice compilation! Keep it up and fly safe! ;)

Why are they all holding on to only the steer lines when surely holding onto the main lines would stop them from twisting in the first place
I´m a beginner, but the guy starting around 1:50 ist flying directly into the Lee at around 2:10 or is driftin into it, isn´t he? Nevertheless I wouldn´t have started with these strong winds.
he had a knot on the right side that pushed him into the lee side
1:50 really sketchy from the begining. Drifting to that turbulent zone + right side kont problem. I would have hanged on the reserve chute handle immediately just in case. Wind conditions, wind conditions... Even speedbar wont save you.
even after going over the back he had a few cut out roads he could have put it down on, but he didn't even steer towards them.
Watching these videos makes me happy I chose to learn hang gliding !
there's probably just as many hang gliding videos... esp that one where the tandem pilot didn't connect his passenger to the glider...
@@davindercI’m talking about wing collapses, not hook in errors.
That last recovery is actually pretty impressive
Scary video. What happened to the first guy? A lot of these launch sites look quite poor for landing options on a poor launch.
A. looks like the winds were way to fast to be flying in. He was blown over the backside, from what I can tell, and into some major leeside rotor and sink.
is that one guy on the blue ad
Half of these folk shouldn't be allowed to fly paper airplanes let alone paragliders 😂😂😂
Taking off with the right brake staying from start to finish in the right hand is important and training this on some football field or whatever is more important
Gaston Lagaffe flies AirDesign!
Wow that looks like fun...
how can pilots be this bad? It's a bit embarrassing to watch :-( , like watching people parallel park badly in a city, simple skills required!
Was thinking the same thing
Guys flying wings and conditions they aren’t ready for?
Coz its the same guy in all clips. Didnt u notice? He, s brutal lol
Whot is the first wing ?
Learned a lot, especially the bad take offs, I think that all happened because the pilots were not well prepared, they can be avoided.
i think the winds are sometimes unpredictable by even the best.
@@DeuceGeniusNo because the pilot's rule no. 1 is if it's "unpredictable" than it should be "NO" or didn't you learn it in the instruction lessons ?
What's the name of your school ?

Same problem from your other videos....Lauching without holding the toggles....
that first one made me sad
With my luck I'd land in front of a pissed off bear.
Sous estimation de la force du vent . Conséquences: descente sous le vent du relief et branchage.
one little breeze and you are down. Its a dangerous sport
First crash seems to be pretty hard, i think i would be better to throw reserve above grass field, than stall the wingo to the ground :)
how can you be so deep in the brakes and yet add more?
So many bad decisions :-(
How beatifuk that Spanish landscape is
@The Pat1480 Which is part of Spain. As you know
Mad driving by Mansell. One of the few who could beat Senna on track.
Why always air design? I have Vita 2 and started to afraid :)
AD are good gliders but you still have to control it.
Why do they keep collapsing??...
most seem to be inexperience and issues that were not addressed before take off during pre-flight or poor handling that leads to tangles at take off. Others seem like going in or out of a powerful thermal, there's a ring of turbulent air around the thermal that can cause a collapse, if you respond poorly it can cause an out of control spin as observed at 7:13 (under a second view, looks like they stalled the wing out by pulling on the breaks they might have interacted with a thermal that killed their wind speed). I'm still an armchair pilot, so a more experienced pilot can do a better explanation
because they are a piece of shit and not meant to fly
@@MuraKun this is not a thermal, the pilot was attempting a spin, you can see because he purposely brings the wing to stall before letting go of one side. The second giveaway is the wing is a gradient freestyle.
@@notafanatic read my comment again, carefully. I haven't edited it at all...
@@MuraKun I read it again, carefully. It's still incorrect. The pilot is flying an acro glider, attempting an acro move, not because of a thermal.
hang gliders weren't dangerous enough so somebody had to go and invent this contraption.
It's not more dangerous... Paraglider accident rate is comparable to motorcycles
@Repomeister Can't say I've heard a more stupid comparison. Do you go ride a motorcycle when there is ice all over the road and go fast and expect nothing to happen? No. With a paraglider choosing the conditions is everything. These accidents are easily avoidable by not launching on a shitty day or having the piloting skills to safely fly in strong conditions.

The last video was too bad.
Seriously! Twisting to wrong side during reverse launch.
Right brake tangled all the time :DDDD
What was wrong in the first one?
He had a knot on the left brake
But the landing was all his fault. That small knot is not enough to stall a wing. He decided to do a 360 turn when approaching. Is he the same fellow landing hard on his ass around 6:34?
Yes he is the same, also I agree he don't took the best option...
Yes, and also at 8:50, taking off without first checking riser twist direction...
watch the trees pilot shitttttttttt lol
Still hasn't put me off wanting to do this.
Has anyone ever flown one of these things and not crash landed?
Thousands of people lol on a regular basis this is just a load of bad pilots and rare occurrences put in to one place
dangerous spot
Quem deu a licença a esses cromos?
This looks really bad. I’m glad I tried paragliding before watching this video. 😳
This guy on the AirDesign is gonna hurt himself eventually
he was on half bar all the way to the ground
hahaha!
Hi Peter, thanks for the kind words. There is talk that we will bring it out in 2 parts like Bruce's 50/25 ways to fly better. After we have done the French version this year. Though please don't quote me on this until it's official.
eventually
But whats wrong with the glider? Knot on the brakeline? (The first clip)
So that's how you're supposed to land I always wondered
Catalonia? Where is that? Do you mean Letonia?
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalonia
Way too windy....whaddya expect ?
So much for high aspect ratio wings! These beginners should stick with the basics before buying one!
I think it is more bad decision making.
I think your "madre" is not responsible for that! Even if you do not like her!
It's said to have been the same pilot each time
Safe flight
I mean come on guys that was like really a bad mistake there
You are risking your life!
Edmund Snyder ever driven a car?
D.B. Get real. This video is terrifying and you know it. Likely one of these guys is dead by now.
With all the fails in 1 location. At what point does somebody come up with the great idea that maybe, just maybe, this is not such a good location for paragliding?
Did you realize that its always the same guy?
What goes up must come down.
Entre el piloto de la Air Design y el de la Advance lo petan!! Vaya par de inutiles!! Y el piloto de la Advance en el minuto 8.30 parece que tenga parkinson!! Pero quien coño le ha enseñado a volar??
I think he's trying to flap his wings like a bird.
Se le quedó el mando trabado por falta de revisión fijo
Makes me want to run out and buy one of those silk wings LOL not
Le mec il accélère il bec son accélérateur et il freine en même temps
Change the video name to “Tree Huggers Delight “😀
the small paraglide of the skidivers seems more safe than this ones.
Jumping off of a cliff is a damn stupid idea. Why don't you guys pick a good low angle hill to start with?!
Some years ago only elite soldiers did this, today every Hanswurst flies.
Me too!
No! Don't pull that string should of pulled the other one
No me ha gustado nada, no entiendo la finalidad de este tipo de vídeos.
I think most of these are the result of people who shouldn’t be flying sport wings flying sport wings.

spanish pilots ?
Dejen de volar con esas porqueria .vuelen con alas delta . Que tiene un marco que impide que pierda la forma...y la sustentacion...saludo
Nunca había visto tantas cosas mal hechas, ni a propósito
🤦♂️
Learn to hang glide it's a lot harder but it's a best way to go
...stick to a "A" wing and shit like this ain't happen ... but NOOOO... fly'n a "A" wing is sooo not cool...... !
CATALONIA? QUE ES ESO

sorry--_>Montblanc/Reus/Lilla
@@TheDavidson1996 que flipao
Hey listen, i don't want to live anymore how do i you know.....
Just buy a paraglider and fly it in the wind, easy..
Heureusement 90 % des pilotes savent voler et tenir leurs ailes...
trying to ride on a giant kite seems risky. maybe 50/50 shot of landing without dying
You mean in Spain.
No sigais volando por favor, hacerlo por vuestras familias, todos fallos de los pilotos, alguno de lo mas tonto e ignorancia del vuelo.
