- Knowing how to reverse launch a Paraglider is essential for every pilot. I went to my local launch site to show you my own easy reverse launch technique. This is very important in the Paragliding sport.

Hey there, I decided to do this short video on how to reverse launch a paraglider in slow to moderate wind conditions. If you enjoyed the video, make sure to like and subscribe to my channel. IS FREE! ;) Happy landings!
So nice of you
I personally like to first build the "wall" (back of the wing on the ground). Then do the main visual check there. This way I can easily and safely spot problems on the A lines and B lines (and C lines if the wind is not very strong) and also align the wing on the wind's direction. Then as I easily pull the wing up I only need to focus on C lines and brake lines and therefore gain some extra time for wing control and body rotation.
Definitely, that's a good way to do it. It really depends on the wind strength. That's the whole trick. I stay focused on the rising speed of the wing and it's tilt and react accordingly. Either pull down the C's or move towards the wing and give a good impulse on the brakes or C's. This works great for me. 👍
👍👍👍
I do it the same but with an "A" riser with each hand in case it goes up wrong correct it. I've done a lot of ground handling and it's easier for me like this, especially with little wind. If it's too windy, I'll do it your way, it's safer.
I say this as an apprentice, so that no one believes that what I say is as it should be.
Yeah, definitely. There are many ways you can hold on your risers. I tried all of them and I find this way the easiest for me. Thanks for sharing your thoughts 👍
Simple, informative, helpful 👌 Thank you so much :)
You are welcome 😃 Glad you found the video helpful and I wish you nice flights out there. Take care 🤙
Nice video. I always lay my wing out and lay my harness out and hook my harness to my wing and thoroughly examine my connections. Then when I'm sure I pick up my harness and turn it and put it on.
Yeah, that's a very good way to do it, I just prefer to be already hooked to the wing while doing that 😉
@@Dvybz I am trying to devise a set of rules for myself because I can't get them
anywhere else. When I leave the school I will be alone and there won't be any official launch zones and there won't be any official landing zones. I studied the pilot a little bit when I was at the school but I studied the ground crew with a fine-tooth comb. I have one ironclad rule. Always put your harness all the way on or take your harness all the way off. I don't have anybody standing around saying hey your leg straps aren't buckled. You're so fortunate because you're flying in places where there's other pilots that you can watch him and ask questions.
Really appreciated
Great job dear
Awesome, can't wait to try
Take your time, even if it is not working from the first try... Practice is king 😉
Nice video, thanks!
I appreciate, buddy.
Good job
One suggestion. Bend a little more your knees, so when the wing is comming up it has enough load to not take you off from the ground. As you can see around 5:25~5:30, when the wing inflates, you barely stand at the tip of your feet, bending your knees and bringing your gravity center down, will make you even more firm on the ground, making an anchor with your load in the wing, so you can make your movements with more precision.
Good information 👈😁 Thanky!
I am sure you can use it. Thanks a lot 😅
Nice tutorial!
Much appreciated 🙏🏼
Nice video
nice ;)
Verf helpfull..thx👌
You welcome ✌️
To much informative
Super ;)
Спасибо!
You welcome! I wish you happy flights and nice take offs👍
Steps to do a reverse launch; Step 1, be in a reverse position when lifting the wing. Step 2, turn around as you proceed to forward launch.

Your camera is pointed too low and your commentary is a little “wobbly”
