Thank you so much 😀

Well done, spicy wing!

Hello.. I'm watching the videos you posted. I have one question. I wonder what programs you use to mark elevation and flight path in the video. It seems to be very helpful for watching videos. I'll be waiting for your advice. james park

@@joonseokpark7138 Hi James. The software is called dashware. You can download it for free and that allows to overlay a GPS track in GPX format over a video.

Why not 2 state stall?

[@florinelzx6r]

I thought this is what I have done :)...

[@paraglidingtransylvania4682]

@ i ‘m not an expert so I don’t want to argue just for the sake of arguing, I asked because I didn’t see the hands up step after stalling the glider. From my experience on siv first you stall, then you go full hands up and then to backfly position.

[@florinelzx6r]

Hehe... then we are 2 non-experts discussing the subject :). If you see stall #1 and #2, they are done the "classical way"... bury the hands and pray. Both me and my instructor (he is actually acro guy and flying acro gliders) discovered that it might not be the best way for high aspect ratio gliders and we started experimenting with 2-stage stall. It's kind of hard to see on this gopro angle how far the hands go up when releasing after the first stage, I think you have to go more with the feel and visual of the glider: the idea is to allow the glider to regain her shape with the tips stalled and then stop her again in order to stop the center. This should prevent the gliders with higher aspect getting the wing tips tangled behind and ending up with a big ball of cloth overhead... So, 81 of the 83 stalls were done with this technique: break the glider, stall the tips, release to allow her regain the shape and then hands down experimenting different backfly positions... with variable results... Where did you do your SIV? Which instructor?

[@paraglidingtransylvania4682]

@ I did in Annecy with Alex Ciuhandu. Going in the summer for more :).

Buna ziua! Sunteti instructor?

[@florinelzx6r]

Salut Alex. Nu, nu instructor. Doar foarte pasionat 🤣. Tu? Faci parapanta?

[@enachealexandruproductions440]

@@florinelzx6r Da. Sunt foarte pasioant de munte in general(in special zona Bucegilor cu abruptul prahovean). Am facut cursul de incepatori si am vreo 60 de zboruri cu 3h de airtime adunat. Pot sa decolez singur si sa aterizez fara probleme. Numai ca voiam sa cer cateva informatii despre zona vaii Prahovei inclusiv decolarile de la Caraiman, cota 2000 si omu, vreme samd. Daca ai avea putin timp:) Multumesc!
