@@leliogama7920thanks brother!

Hell yeahhhh!!

Usually during comps pilots open their equipment and do various checks. I did them and everything looked fine. Honestly the string that closes the harness wasn't my main focus since it never gave any problems. Now I periodically check whether it's still tight or not, but soon it won't be necessary

Thanks mate, I appreciate it!

That's completely wrong. I wasn't "grabbing the risers", I was piloting using the D-risers which is different (same principle used on 2-liners). If you're at full speed the worst thing you can do is to break a little to "feel the wing". It's like pulling your handbrake a bit while trying to go full gas on your car. The reason why I didn't feel the collapse right away with the risers is because the glider is old and not trimmed, nothing to do with the risers (if you look carefully you can see that I almost immediately got off the speedbar, because I felt it there)

@@flyingplm You were piloting the wing by using D risers is the same as grabbing the risers. Haha. I would like to correct you. Irrespective of how fast you are flying, you always want to keep your lines taut. Keeping the lines taut is not equivalent to braking. Taut lines maintain internal pressure in the wing. It is as simple as that. Its a part of active piloting.

@@fun3721 Generally speaking you want to have some tension on the lines in turbulent air or in zones where you know something might happen. Practically the less input you give the better the paraglider will glide. Other than that using the D lines is not grabbing the risers. When you pilot a 2 liner is piloting with the B riser considered 'grabbing the risers'? The glider is old, but if it were new using the D lines would've been effective (it's just a question of habits really) and I would've felt the collapse. If your goal is to go full speed you can't expect to have the best performance if you try to apply tension (you will pull a bit, it's inevitable) on the back risers you will inevitably change its geometry hence less performance. Obviously in this case it was just for fun but in a racing performance point of view those are important facts

@@flyingplm No sir, you always have some tension in the lines. In calm air even more so. These are basics of flying irrespective of what kind of wing you are flying. You are flying a 4 liner and comparing it with a 2 liner. Bad comparison. Anyways. I just shared my thoughts on basic safety aspects. Good luck driving a Ford whilst comparing it with a Ferrari :)

​@@fun3721you are wrong, using c or d steering Is the correct thing to do while accelerating. Using brakes Is dangerous becauae It causes collapses

Thanks mate! After a few failed attempts I got the mechanics down ;)

Dangerous revolution in race harnesses . 😢

@@siavashnourmohammadi9189 I'd like to know your full opinion. Why do you think it's dangerous?

Ma 'nche senso?

@@flyingplm che sarebbe più sicuro fare un altra cosa visto che non sono capaci….. 🤣🤣🤣

@@paulino3320 oltre ad un paio di video (come quello del dust devil) sono "tutti" la stessa persona, ovvero io. Mi piacerebbe sapere la tua opinione sul perché pensi che non sia capace :)

@@flyingplm ostia! Se É sempre la stessa persona peggio ancora! Si vede che non ha imparato nulla nel tempo e rischia la vita causa mancanza capacitá. É un peccato ma questa persona farebbe meglio restare a terra per evitare guai! Ci sono altri divertimenti che farebbero forse meglio.... non só... Golf, Caccia, Tennis.....! mi auguro che la persona stia bene e che trova il suo destino che al 100% é a terra! Le auguro una buona giornata!

@@paulino3320 non hai argomentato. Perché non ho imparato nulla? Cosa c'è di così pericoloso che è stato fatto? Nella compilation ci sono anche tanti errori dovuti all inesperienza. Certi video sono di due anni fa (sono brevettato da 3 anni). Continuare a dire di cambiare sport non è una critica costruttiva e non sapermi dire cosa sbaglio rende il commento fine a sé stesso. Riguardando i video so esattamente cosa andava fatto meglio e ho lavorato affinché non facessi più tali errori. Aspetto un commento costruttivo da parte tua

Unfortunately in big gaggles that's not always possible

@@flyingplm Yes, flying like that would be too stressful for me. I love recreational flying. After 10 years of flying gliders, I have been flying paragliders for 32 years. Good Luck for you! Have fun and stay safe!

@@petersfluege thank you very much mate! I love xc flying and competitions. In higher level competitions everyone is very skilled so there are no problems regarding overtakes and thermaling together at all. Impressive experience you got! If you have any advice feel free to share!

@@flyingplm No advice for you. hm except one: always have a plan B when flying. ESPECIALLY when you have to decide quickly! This means that don't put yourself in situations where you have to make quick decisions without time for plan B!

@@petersfluege That's golden advice! Thank you very much ;)

Yeeep🤭

😂😂😂

😂😂😂😂

Why?

@@flyingplm kzbin.infoPYb7OVCazfg?si=PmbgjHLQk11LgyAl Аксель пристегнут с внутренней стороны . Стартуете в турбулентной зоне. У вас шикарное крыло , Я вам завидую ))) это крыло требовательно к умению пилота.

I still don't understand

Thank you very much♥️

Thanks mama!♥️

Thank you!! :)

Thank you very much mate! Competitions and XC: Photon XC Only: Artik-R

The wing in the video is an EN-A. You're right, it didn't feel terrible, my reaction was immediately to catch the dive but I could've easily slept in that moment😂😂 The difference between this wing and my Photon is that the photon really lets me know if anything is going to happen, while this wing didn't give me any info, the frontal collapse just happened

@@flyingplm yea, same with going from my Dena to my maestro, the feedback is much more pronounced on the maestro, was difficult to get used to. Also with the Dena when I was about to have a collapse i would feel it in my hips, i would loose lift on one side and sometimes be able to catch it before it happened, sometimes it would just happen without warning, but with the maestro I don’t feel it in my hips, i feel it in lose of brake pressure, so I’ve found it much more important to fly with just a little brake pressure and if the pressure drops I need to pump the brake hard and fast and i can stop a collapse from happening In most cases.

Thank you very much mate!

You're welcome:) By the way, where was that?@@flyingplm

@@nanotech2691 it was in Matese!

@@flyingplm what country is that lol?

@@nanotech2691 Italy

Glad to hear that he’s going to be ok

The pilot in the video is not me! I think that the worst thing was not doing the low altitude wingovers, but not throwing the reserve right away. Obviously he should've avoided the manoeuvre in the first place, but he could've had a safe way to descent

???

Ahahah thanks! B risers are way more effective than brakes in almost every situation (especially in this one), it's just a mental condition!

Era tutto sotto controllo😉

Thank you very much mate! The weight range really depends on the conditions, I'd suggest to fly it a bit more loaded since it can go up to 108 kg. I used to fly it at 105 and it performs very well. 10 kg under is a bit too much! You risk a lot of collapses, plus it can't penetrate wind very well. Technically with this low weight you should always be on the speedbar, which might not be ideal for starters. A good rule of thumb is to be 3-4 kg max under the max weight range for three liners. For instance I fly my Photon at 101 kg in weak conditions and 103 kg in stronger ones. A two liner is very sensible to weight change, but it was just to give you an idea.

@@flyingplm thanks! I’ll keep it in mind …

Hey mate! It was around 3-4 m/s

@@flyingplm thank you dude ! The photon looks pretty good in thermals 👍🏻

@@Jo.G it's very nice in thermals although in stronger ones (>6 m/s) it's quite hard to turn and it's not as sharp

@@flyingplm thanks for your feedback, this wing is in my mind since a few time

@@Jo.G I think it's the greatest C 2 liner out there, especially if you want to do competitions. I want to be more clear about the previous comment, what I meant is that if you want to tightly turn in a strong thermal it is hard, it seems like it doesn't want to turn at all. But if you want to do a shallower turn it's good. This is the only "bad" thing about it. In strong turbulence it's super solid and the performance for the category is positively absurd. I absolutely recommend it. Obviously it's not a starter wing and being a 2 liner requires a certain type of piloting
