C'est tellement simple comme explication alors que souvent on se torturait l'esprit pour rien. Merci à Greg et à celui qui a fait le sous-titrage qui va en aider plus d'un
These videos are some of the best informational videos in the world
Thank you
Excellent description of the problem and the solution!
Thank you once again for your wonderful insight, another simple tip I have learnt from you during my early stages on flying ☺️
One thing he did that he didn't point out was having the riser for the downhill side on top. If you have riser for downhill side on bottom you'll probably get plucked or dragged with a full twist in stronger conditions or very steep slopes
That was great, fabulous tutorial, very easy to follow, can't wait to try this out. Thanks again to all in the Flybubble team.
The hill I practice on has crosswinds all the time and has given me a lot of problems will be trying this from now on. great video's thanks for posting.
Thanks a lot! At last I can now convince my buddies how to do this right!
Thank you for those great hints
Thank you for this video. Cross wind side hill launching has been a tough point for me and I am going to train on this method and see if I can get it dialed. Again thank you.
Great tutorial! Thank`s!
Very helpful video.
thanks for useful tip and nice explanation
Many thanks for this tuto, the next time I will think to that.
I never knew this trick, crosswinds always catch me out. Not anymore though. Thanks for posting this useful tip
Superb info, thanks :)
great video
much appreciated, thanks
Great! very useful information.
Another good tip, now I know what I have been doing unconsciously with being able to explain.
Many thanks Greg - still new to the sport and found these videos to be a great source of information. Hope you had a good trip to SA?
Thank you
Brilliant
good stuff
Awesome
Lovely. Nicely made and really clear - more please! :o)
thx guy
Muito bom!
Great set of videos Greg, thanks for taking the time to put them together. But small point, you're not wearing gloves? Line burns hurt like hell and it's not usually for low airtimers to lose control and end up grabbing a handful of lines. I'd recommend always helmet and gloves while practising ground handling!
Nice start keep on trying :)
@passem91: Tu veux la traduction complète ?
En gros le message est : l'erreur commune est de vouloir descendre la pente avec le vent de travers.
La solution est de privilégier l'alignement avec le vent.
Donc tu étale ton chiffon, puis tu fais un pas (tu te déplace) dans le sens du vent, puis tu lève.
Voilà, pas plus compliqué que ca.
So when the wind is crossing from the right side of the hill, we don't turn right at the launching (Like usual for the reverse launch)? I see him turn left
Türkçe altyazı için teşekkür ederim
isn't there a far greater possibility of dangerous turbulence in this scenario (caused by changes in the ground elevation in the direction the wind is coming from)? I know you allude to it being unsafe, just want to make sure I understand why.
how do you deal with a crosswind where you can't just launch into wind? what if its a narrower hill (trees, obstacles) and you must travel downhill, but slightly cross wind?
Seems to me the launch is still into the wind (the crosswind is relative to hill, not the launch). My instructor is telling me to run down hill rather than into the wind which just seems dangerous to me??
Where is this place located on?
скажите пожалуйста музыку а,то понравилась)
Always take off right into wind direction...obvious
