Hi David, nice to see you flying again. Camille told me that you had an accident few months before. I see that you look fine. Don t forget post more videos. Greetings from Colombia. P/S: One Hang Gliding is using tree colors (Yellow, Blue, Red) Where is it from?

Hi Mauricio, thank you for your message ! It was more a bad landing than an accident :) Nothing broken, just a bent downtube, and a sad pilot ;) shit happens. It was my second one since I started flying, but there's always a way to get better with more training :) About the wing, I know what you are thinking but no, it's not a Colombian pilot :) The red part is more pink than red in real life.

Very nice. Beautiful country. I would like one of those RX2's too :-)
@DavidDeltaCH8 жыл бұрын
Thanks ! The glider is my girlfriend's Icaro RX2 M. A beautiful, light, easy glider with a very decent performance for a single surface (I had a 9-10 L/D during most of the flight) and I'm very heavy for its size. I love to fly it when I don't want to bother with the weight of my topless :) I didn't test any other modern single surface glider but I can't imagine what more to expect than what I get with this wing :).

We're in love with our U2's :) Benja is way lighter than me, I'm on the top range of certified clip-in weight for my U2. I suppose his sink rate is a little bit better than mine but we don't see a huge difference except that he climbs better in thermals than me, but uh... I don't think my weight is to blame :-D

Wow. That serene glide with you two over the water toward the LZ was fantastic. You guys look evenly matched on glide in your U2's. Wonderful glider, isn't it? Thanks for posting!

The beginning was turbulent as hell (not shown on the video, some viewers would have been air-sick :-D), but once up it was smooth and fun ! Thanks for watching :)

This video is truly Epic! This is why I took up hang gliding. Not had a flight like this one yet but off to the Alps in a month so fingers crossed :D

Thank you for your comments guys :) I just love to share those moments with you, and if one person somewhere thinks about starting to hangglide after watching one of my video I would have succeeded ;). Long live hanggliding, fly safe guys !!! And if you liked the music, please go to Lindsey's site, youtube and/or facebook page and listen to her music, she deserves it, I loved to work with her music on this video.

Hi, thank you :) ! My weight is nearly the same as yours, it goes from 78kg to 80. So I'm slightly over the 77kg max recomended naked weight but I'm around 95kg with harness and all equipment (vario, gopro, water, helmet) which is less than the max weight(100kg). I tested both size and both were flying great. I finally choose the small one because of 1. Lighter weight 2. Smaller packed size (more stable on my car's roof when driving) 3. I sometimes fly in quite strong thermal conditions.

hi, great flights. I just got a U2 160 after flying 1 year with Seedwings Space 14, and 2 years on a schooling glider. I' curious about if I made right choice for 160 size, my weight is ~ 80Kg. Can you tell me how much you height (without harness), and how you feel about the 145 size of U2, are you close to the upper limit?

@lepikhin Thanks, I just added the link to my flighttrack (google earth file) in the vid description, I didn't go that far this flight, I tried to stay in the air as long as possible to try the wing at different speeds, different bank angles ...

Congrats on the U2 145. Have the same glider here in Arizona - almost the same color as well. Enjoyed your video, we don't get the snow capped peaks like that. To see how your glider is used in Arizona come see the videos I've posted. Good luck to you! Greg
