Paragliding XC Secrets: Getting away from a small hill on a paraglider

Flybubble explains how to escape from any small hill when trying to thermal and go cross country. Especially useful for flying sites that face away from the sun, like Devil's Dyke near Brighton in South East England.

Hi Greg, I'm a USA glider pilot and I find your stuff AAA. I've been showing your vids to newbie glass drivers and it really is helping them visualize and trust he forces at work, and that they must go get it to make it happen. Great camera and narration work!

Hi, Can you do a video on launch site assessment? What type of sites to be avoided. To avoid taking off at wrong time or wrong place. It will be greatly appreciated. Thanks. :)

The last time i just got away from a hill with the first weak thermal. Not much lift but later on some nice thermals.

Thank you! ''Study the slopes plus angle of sunlight'' What would have changed if the sun was in front of the slope not in the back of it? I've got small hills facing the sun and I want to know if the mechanism of the thermos is the same.
