I'm happy that you're safe Vojta. I remember the feeling that you have the urge to hold on to something while flying. I guess by now you have long mastered your mistakes from the old days. This a great video for all the beginners that don't understand yet. Try to become one with your harness. Never grab the risers. You'll start feeling your glider trough the breaks and the whole riser, trough pitch and roll.
@@slimking Not involuntary braking, but lack of feel and lack of brake input. The frontal could have been easily prevented by a stab of the brakes when it started to surge forward. Instead, the pilot was grabbing on to the risers with zero brake input and so didn't notice the loss in pressure of the wing until way too late. Only once the wing started to surge did they realize anything was going on and looked up, by then the wing was already way in front of them and almost too late to do anything. By not grabbing onto the risers the pilot would have been feeling with brake toggles the depressurization and been able to sense what was going on and react right away
i love the comment session. Everybody is a professor. 2,47 minuts apparently it's more than enaugh to know the wind, the weather condition, the pilot, the glider and also his mother name. Great reaction with the reserve. thx for sharing
There are plenty of cases where that's true on UA-cam coments but in this case, any experienced paraglider pilot can see what happened here and I hope that others can learn from this: Flying active conditions requires active piloting. Holding the riser like he does at 0:22 means he's not actively piloting. This was pilot error and would have been easily avoidable
Lots of things to take away from this video for your next flight but the quick decision to throw the reserve was perfect. I have shown some student this video today as its an excellent example of the quick reactions needed when you are low down and things go wrong. Well done. :-)
OK after watching this about 50 times. I would say that I am not sure that I could have stopped the collapse but I do think that you should have been pulling left brake to reduce or stop the rotation. That would at the very least give you more time to deploy. But you walked away so well done and thanks for posting.
Can't do anything if we're holding onto the risers. That's where the hands were in the moment leading up to the collapse. Totally takes you by surprise in that situation. Excellent choice to throw.
Typical thermal behaviour. Wenn entering the canopy shoots backwards, that was the moment the pilot grabbed the risers, and the the exit from it wenn the canopy shoots forward aggressively. Thats the moment to stop the overshooting, which obviously didn't happen. But great reflexes on the reservethrow i must say i am impressed.
Man what a shock! But your rescue deployment was spot on. Thanks for sharing the video, this way we can all learn from mistakes. Always happy landings!
As everyone told here before, do not hold your risers, cause you won’t feel any feedback from the wing. I’m very glad for you that you pulled your reserve that quick and that you’re allright! Even the reservebag landed nearby, shortly after you came down ;-)
Yeah when rewatching this Gem I also saw the Reserve-Container and thought to myself "Ha - he doesn't even need to search the Container" :-) Crazy how small details can humor me :-)
woah - big reaction! I would've been to dumb to throw it and would have died while debugging my Wing! There was no margin for error and you reacted perfectly!
is the music necessary? would be nice to hear how the wind becoming to silent. Anyway, great reserve chute reaction even the FS did not have to happen tho. Thanks for share!
Throwing the Reserve was the only choice with this height - trying to fix would be only possible for World Class Pilots trained professional for this situation. Nice Landing field.... better than the forest.... thanks for sharing
If you felt the need to deploy, you made the right call. End of story. I notice some people forget when you decide to toss in a tight spot, you stop flying and focus on deploying. You had very little margin left and you easily could have eaten that up if you were distracted or less stable when you ripped your chute. Good job.
Ouh man, practice some active flying (look up some videos and foremost ask some good pilots for help, so you won`t make those beginner mistakes anymore ( letting the glider shoot forward and grabing and holding the risers until touchdown ;p) ). I´m glad you`re ok. and the landing also looked relatively smooth! Thanks for sharing!
You know it's easy to sit here and call him a beginner and is it possible that he could have hit the brakes and stopped the tuck sure. However if you think that when high AR gliders in XC conditions, this is never going to happen to you. You are delusional. That delusion is what allows an lot of pilots to keep flying.
Good reflex with the reserve because you were not very high above the lanscape. Before the collapse why holding the risers ? We can ear the wind on the glider making a resource, and then no more wind before he goes forward, you should have controlled that.
I'm just a P1 here but probably should change the title to frontal collapse right? Stalls are caused by braking and this could've been solved by braking + not grabbing the risers (so that the pilot could apply brake pressure)
Btw I don’t know what a “front stall” is, but this was a frontal collapse. You seemed to have pitched yourself back then let the glider shoot to far ahead of you causing the frontal.
well.if you are holding the risers, you are not using the brake toggles to feel the wing...BUT you can also use rear riser control to check pitch as well. Bottom line, if the wing is surging, you need to get it back over your head where it belongs, from either brakes or rear risers.
@@bornuponawave When the wing surges forward, you'll have to stop it by pulling the brakes, providing more air resistance. Going hands up will accelerate the wing even more, causing a more severe collapse. His major mistake is holding the risers, applying no brake pressure at all. His reaction (to pull brakes) was correct, but came way too late.
Dobře, že to mělo šťastný konec. Popište prosím někdo pro nás - neletce, proč se to stalo. Proč ten padák byl nejdřív krásně vyplněný vzduchem a najednou jakoby splaskl? Přijde mi, že pilot letěl pořád jakoby stejně a najednou to kikslo. Díky za odpověď.
Ja by som rad poukazal na to ze sa drzal rejzerov a tiez je na videu vidiet ako by stlacil lavou rukov tie A rejzeri (to su tie cervene ) a to mohlo sposobit predny kolaps. Ja som sa tie tak drziaval tych rajzerov ale kamos to videl na mojich videach a hned mi visvetlil ze sa take nieco moze stat. Ja by som sa na jeho mieste snazil odnaucit tento zlo zvik
Agree that the reserve was thrown very quickly but some timely application of brakes to prevent wing surge would have avoided the frontal collapse. Glad this ended well though.
I have around 100 flights of experience and i wouldnt be sure if i would have reacted that fast in mind and throw the reserve that quickly sadly there is very little ways to practice such an emergency. Great job i hope i will do it the same if it happens to me. PS i cant see what you would have should differently then many people say
put your weigh on the left and breat for counter the speed and take control of the glider but he is really close to the ground, u buy an rescue, use it
Too little, when the glider enters the lift you need to prepare to brake it when it starts to shoot forward. The pilot did nothing (he was grabbing the risers! bad bad habit). With the proper input the front stall would have not happened at all. After it happened and the right side of the wing got tangled the decision to throw the reserve was perfect! He had no altitude, even a few second of delay would have been bad.
glider goes behind you: let off the brakes; when the glider wants to shoot in front of you, and its right above your head again, break it short but hard .
Paragliding is brutal. 47 years, been at the drop zone in some capacity every week. Thousands of jumps , God bless I've never seen a fatality. Started paragliding, 6 months 9 fatalities and everyone more brutal than the next. A double fatality with hang glider and paraglider, limbs street across the mountainside. It's just ridiculous. 5 or 600 speedflying flights, no fatalities. Didn't take a rocket scientist to see that this sport is lame. "Here I am .... Floating, doing nothing, still floating, woops I'm dead because my wing collapsed because I'm stupid enough to fly a wing wing loaded at .00000000001 to 1". Lol. Never again. Oh yeah, super happy you're ok and extremely nice save! Happy you're here to fly again! This post has been edited due to a very unintelligent chochki, and is in everyway, my opinion, and my opinion and my brothers brothers opinion, me. Through the sport, I lost amazing friends, , didn't experience what I wanted, and was tarnished soulfully. It has nothing to do with the beautiful, incredibly talented and sweet people involved with the sport. I'm a go fast person who enjoys speed. That's it. Actually truthfully, it was none of that, it was because I had a meaningless conversation with some mo named Seth Fukr . Avoid at all cost.
Jo, držel se popruhů a tím nereagoval na "předstřel" padáku. I z videa jde poznat že šel padák nejdříve po poryvu, nebo náletu do stoupáku, dozadu za pilota. Následuje jeho urychlení, pilot se zhoupne zase dozadu, a pokud do toho znuvu foukne stejným způsobem je náběžná hrana padáku sklopená k zemi a poryv padáku sfoukne celou přední část dozadu. Častá chyba začátečníka, taky jsem to tak dělal 🤷🏻♂️
@@janrampir9255 Jasně, takže při padáku dozadu brdičky nahoru a při předstřelu brzdit. Není asi sranda správně rychle zareagovat a taky časovat, aby se nebrzdilo zrovna ve chvíli kdy se nemá a naopak, že?
@@pigikprasatko1253 Jj, ubrzdit to jak se vrací ideálně nad hlavou. V učebnici to nazývají "jasné ostré ne". Samo záleží jak moc to bude silný poryv a taky to pilot nesmí přebrzdit do pádu 🙈. Na všech podobných videích kde se borci tohle stane to nevypadá až tak silně, ale ve skutečnosti ten padák musel jít dost dozadu a o to rychleji se vracel. Tam je pak nutné to rychlé přibrždění. Může se to stát i zničehonic, ale to určitě není tenhle případ a celkově se to moc nestává. To už musíš zaletět do nějakého rotoru za stromy, nebo za hranu kopce, ale tam to je opět o pilotově chybě. Může nastat i velký střih při náletu do stoupáku, ale to už jdeš do podmínek které budou celkově nepříjemné a lítání to nebude ani trochu pohodové. Každopádně ta záložka vyšla na vteřinu 😁
@@janrampir9255 je mozne citit na ridickach predstrel aniz by se clovek dival nad sebe? Nebo je v takovych podminka potreba neustale se vicemene divat nahoru?
You are lucky! Too much braking and letting go. You made that wing surge on your own, and reacted the wrong way when it surged. Braking and arms up, makes the wing surge. Go to training, self taught people get into bad accidents because they do not know how to react.
Great reserve throw
I'm happy that you're safe Vojta.

true, but i don't think involuntary braking was the cause of this. Sometimes the best thing you can do is prepare for the worst.

same here
You're a tool
when you grab the risers, you stop being the pilot and become a passenger
If you grab ONE riser you become the terrorist.

Not great piloting, but at least very good reserve reaction and a happy ending.

good reserve reaction is great piloting in this sport mate ; )

It seems the velame loses the sustantation when it was very back. When it gets back, it was already stalled. Difficult
That's the best timed throw I've seen, congrats on making the proper quick decision. If in doubt, chuck.

Wow nice throw!
Horrible reaction time for preventing the frontal. Excellent reaction time on the reserve.
Thank you for sharing.

This was badass.. QUICK REFLEXES!!!! It's amazing how much altitude you lost while the chute was opening up! Scary! Great call!

Why do paragliders just randomly fall from the sky so often? If never seen this happening with skydiver - parachutes or base jump - parachutes

when the video started I thought the music was you humming/mumbling to yourself :)
What a quick reaction... great...👏 don´t think about it... just throw quick and survive 👍
You were hands up with the wing out in front. ALWAYS feel the wing with some brake pressure, and check those forward surges.

Too much brake no ?
That was a good save!
What I can’t figure out is why he was doing that so low?
could you find the blue bag of the reserve later?
He landed right next to it 😎
Блин,как же всё быстро произошло!
Lightning fast decision making - this guy could base jump :P
Why he never tried to arrest the forward surge of the wing... 😢
Good desition man. You didnt wait to recover cause you were to close to the floor.
Inattentive flying (lack of "touch" while hanging on risers) but excellent reaction time in tossing laundry.
