@@Glenburrows it’s a single skin paraglider so not a speed wing. It’ll launch in whatever wind you want 🤣 but flying it isn’t much fun in more than 10mph. It’s uncomfortable to have it pushed around in high winds or thermic air and you can’t really have a fun playful flight with either of those. So I keep to about 10mph and non thermic conditions for best fun flying :)
@@philipv3098 no, it changes so much with wind strength and direction. Launch, glide and landing are impressive on the ronin though. I did a flight off Suilven that might demonstrate the glide well. Uploaded 2/3 weeks back now.
This is a really good flying. Especially in the second half. Great to watch 👍
Thank you mate :) feels like I’m improving!
That's a very long walk to get up there 'before' work
@@Tinker1950 twice before work mate 😂 I have t set my alarm early! Usually takes 45 mins but I’ve done it in 35!
What's the take off wind speed window of these speed wings?

How do you like the ronin so far?
Hesitating between ronin and a light double surface…
@@philipv3098 I love it mate :) makes me smile a lot! The pack size is insane
@@jamesaustrums thanks mate
Did you ever measure the glide angle?
Approximately

Thats my landing area! Did you get permission to land there? 😁
