Many many pilots, have no clue what to do when the non-SIV training situations arise. Would be nice to show us how to deal with increasingly more dangerous situations.

As usual great video 00:59 ...Glider anatomy is useful to understand when flying... The leading edge has openings called cells they are separated by ribs that have vents allowing air from one cell to the other when we pump the "good" side we compress some air from the inflated flying side to the collapsed side and re-inflate the wing.

I personally pull in my legs and lean into the collapsed side before any rotation happens, when the collapses are very big. Otherwise, for smaller collapse, I would pull my legs in and lean on the uncollapse side. I often have 75% collapse where I am flying so it may not be relevant to most viewers.

Great stuff! but, on that first one, "Sit up". We've been taught to avoid that, to actively train to avoid it. To tuck your legs in for sure - but to not sit up - but to keep your back in full contact with your harness, as much of your body in contact as possible. There's an explanation on the Masterclasses on XC Mag's website (also XC mags KZbin Channel: "Base of Support")

Interesting. I had a spin recently after messing up my entry into a thermal. I thought my reaction was good but I now see it could have been better. I went hands up but did not think to catch the dive. Tbh I was just happy to let the wing fly again. Obviously after the dive came a very strong resource and then another very powerful dive which was straightforward enough to catch. About time I head out to my first SIV I think😅

Brilliant video, thanks. I went Oludeniz on holiday 12 or 13 years ago and didn't plan on going paragliding, we both did a tandem and absolutely loved it. Life gets in the way and time passes you by... Shit happens, and all of a sudden I'm 40yo, single and unemployed, just before Christmas, so what to do? Last week I booked my EP out in Spain, can't wait!

Greg the issue with your rule 1 is in my limited experience (2 big collapses) things are happening superfast in micro seconds, in my case I was being thrown / spun / yanked around like a doll ........so not sure how I would have leaned back gently and looked up to figure out qhat was happening. Your suggestions may work if it's ALL Happening in slow motion or at a slower pace. In my first collapse I fell almost 800 - 1200 + feet before the glider recovered on its own.

@@FlyingCraic generally I agree, but conditiions can change so fast, perhaps a unknoen takeoff you can be wrong . The glider should have the same level like the Pilot, not the level of his unrealistic dreaming upon his behaviour and flight behaviour.

@micinvit

It pays to have your lines checked (by yourself or a shop). I've seen brake lines 10cm shorter than what they should be. Really bad, especially if you are approaching the landing and pulling "hard" to slow down (a bit of over shooting, may be 😉?). There you go with a spin and no margin to recover (or , even worse) a full stall.
@StanBarankiewicz
@StanBarankiewicz 2 жыл бұрын
Why don't you recommend a full stall to clear a cravat, as the final remedy before throwing reserve? My understanding is that deep cravats can only be fixed by full stalling, which may take several stalls to fully clear.
@FlyWithGreg
@FlyWithGreg 2 жыл бұрын
It's a good point Stan, but here on youtube I'm very aware that this video has to work for EVERYONE even the very basic beginner level pilots. So simple methods only. I discuss stalls and stall exits in the extended edition on my website. Deliberate full stalls are an advanced (post SIV course) recovery technique. Things can go very wrong very fast, and I'd like to know pilots are advanced enough to be able to see that the cravatte is not still in place before releasing their full stall 'recovery' which would then dive straight into a nightmare autorotation. In most cravattes I've seen, a hard punch (one side spin) or fishing out the stabilo or big ears to disable it all work well.

Doing a full stall is always a coin toss whether you're going to make the situation better or worse… a brief spin can be better than a stall.

Rule #1 should be: check how far from the mountain and how far from the ground you are. You may need to fly away from the mountain before you try anything.

best safety advice is stay on the ground and let the other guy go up there and remember to wave at him...if he gets into difficulty try guide him to safety but do this from the ground....and again remember...always stay on the ground. .
