Can I ask, do you have any tips on launching the Allegro X Alps? Just got mine a few days ago and the 2 main lines per side make launching it kind of weird... Haven't quite figured it out yet... Best so far seems to take the inner A-Lines only?
Congratulations on your new wing!Ah yes, it took me a bit of time to get that dialled in. First of all the line layout while not hooked in makes GH a real challenge. I rarely do much more than shake the lines out before hooking in. Once hooked in I have found the only thing that works for me is to hold all 4 A’s evenly. Just using the centre A’s doesn’t give connection / control of enough of the wing surface. I use other hand on both rear risers so it’s easy to kill if necessary. In strong wind I will grab the rear risers high on the lines otherwise it can be hard to keep the wing tips on the ground. Because it is lightweight I find it comes up and overhead quickly but without any nasty tendency to drag at 45° or anything so once you get it right it’s easy to be confident at launch. Stick with it buddy, and take it easy and I’m sure it will click really soon. If you’re at all like me it will be because you’re a little apprehensive on the new wing, once you relax and lock in the muscle memory launching will be a pleasure… ;-)
@@completespaz1873 Thank you very much for the help! I'll do some groundhandling once the wind is right... I was already planning on going to the Mitsos/A's and C's method, so hearing that from you makes me wanna try it even more! Will try both, inner As and all As, exited to see the difference! Thanks again, for the help and the videos!
How many sites are there around Hong kong ?
