99% of pilots cant do this!

I guarantee no one does this superb technique. proven to work 100% of the time! just listen to the vario after every compliment!

Hunting Thermals.... Reading the wind is a fine art. Just you and the elements, lovely !!!

[@Ripstop_pilot]

Love it when a plan comes together

[@steveshovlar994]

Great flight. Took the gamble and it paid off.🎉

[@lobotomyy]

was watching this whole vid with a smile in my face😂😂😂 top commentary!!!

[@Ripstop_pilot]

🤣 not really a commentary, more a "keeping my mind busy" 🤣

[@P4n0r4mA]

I smiled alot. Nice! xD

[@Ripstop_pilot]

I'm still smiling 😉

[@bartofsegame]

Well done. Patience is key in our sport.

[@Ripstop_pilot]

Just working through fear of heights and keeping my mind busy while fighting for a good flight.

[@CornishColin]

Interesting watching other people thermal - I keep thinking "turn tighter !!" - each has there own style I guess!

[@Ripstop_pilot]

I usually turn harder but I wanted to stay as flat as possible with falling out a lot. 12 seconds isnt too bad per 360 😉

I just had a low save today as well. Set up my down wind because I didn’t think I was gonna make it. I somehow ran into a bugger and she took me up just enough to called it safe. Glad you had a nice flight too :)

[@Ripstop_pilot]

Gotta love a low save 🤙

[@chestyoz9725]

Shades of Howard Moon in this one 😃

[@Ripstop_pilot]

Who? 🤣

[@gisxrboy1856]

Well done Russ, you worked it well low down. Interesting commentary though, it sounded like you were trying to calm your own nerves about getting high. Loved it mate and good to see you flying high again.👍

[@Ripstop_pilot]

Exactly what it was.....keeping my mind busy enough that there was no space for negativity 🤙

[@Andyjiggs]

Nice flying Russell,more patience than most,looked delightful 👍😃

[@Ripstop_pilot]

Nothing to lose. Cant win if ya dont try.

[@paraglidingRob]

Great video Russ. Do you think the car going down the road triggered the thermal?

[@Ripstop_pilot]

No idea, possible, tractors are really good at it. Cant see why a car couldnt.

[@TimPentreath]

Sweet climb-out, but boy do you need therapy 😂

[@Ripstop_pilot]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 that is my therapy🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@blaz667]

Well done! 👍
