      beginning with "Paraglidng vs Kite" but your starting with Speedwings instantly is just wrong (but yeah i understand your intension here). ; a close up with the plastic cutoff would be Nice; No > Flaring doesn´t mean (handbreaks) > it´s more like the Swooping > Swooping In Phase. But Overall > a Super Great Video!!! recommend it.

    How different is this setup from the Flare Mustache? I’m sure mustache has changes in the wing itself compared to a regular glider, but the handling seems very similar.

    • @AddictionHappiness
      @AddictionHappiness  День тому +1

      Well in general Moustache is a “reflex” wing and this one is “classic”. The difference between these two is that with the reflex you can lower the angle of attack more which will give you more speed/dive in general.. but then on the other hand with strong reflex you lose efficiency and especially feeling/handling. But the overall system is similar.. hands up hands down like explained in video. But from my experience I prefer this classic wing as I get extremely good feedback from the air even tho I risk some of the extra speed and dive.. with reflex the dive and all that can be epic but I just don’t like “plank” feelings.. I want my wing to talk to me so I can judge air and what’s happening as much as possible. There is a lot more to it and this comment is already getting long.. too much text… will make a video on this topic 🔥🙌🙌🙌

    What would be the effect if you install those kite risers on, lets say a 8m regular speedwing. Would it be harder to launch? Because i really like the idea of having all that range in your hands, but people flying with the line are saying that steering is not so sensitive, so this could be the solution. Or just a really terrible idea?

      Hey 👋 I’ve been actually flying with 12m wing from LC… and it was amazing. Also the feeling and steering is super precise. I’ll do more test with smaller wings. Video soon! 🔥 On the side note it’s important to remember that those wings which have “reflex” will have worse handling compared to “normal/classic” wings in terms of feeling and feedback. More reflex = less feedback and feeling from the wing/air. Positives and negatives on both ends. I prefer more precision and real feedback from my wing and air and I’m happy to trade a bit more top speed and dive for that 🔥🔥🔥

    wow. I bought an epsilon 9 Wing in lesson so I can learn to be an epsilon 9 pilot and fly with the trim tabs always on. I'm curious do you tend to forget this or is it something you can change back and forth easily? How similar to a reflex Wing like a mustache Wing is this particular riser?

    • @AddictionHappiness
      @AddictionHappiness  4 дні тому

      Hey hey 👋 For this setup used in the video I can swap risers in roughly 10minutes, so it’s quiet easy/fast process - however it’s important to be focused when doing it so you don’t make mistakes. I will do video about Reflex vs No-Reflex soon! But in general this setup gives me more feeling and overall feedback from the air compared to “reflex” wings which can sometimes feel a bit “plank” 🔥 All have positives and negatives tho.. depending on your preference. Will do a video on this topic 🔥🙌

    • @markmcgoveran6811

      @AddictionHappiness I don't really have any desire for the control inputs to be mandated. If you turn a loose of the controls when you have the kite rigging in your hands go up, it dives hard. Currently on the epsilon 9 with the standard setup you can take your hands out of the controls.

    Is it possible to put kite raisers on a normal en-a paraglider? Does it work or are these gliders too sluggish? What do you think?

    • @AddictionHappiness
      @AddictionHappiness  5 днів тому +1

      Depends on the wing but in general it is possible with the right settings to stay within wings capabilities and limits. Next time I will also try on bigger normal paragliding size 🔥🔥🔥
