For safe flying Paraglider pilots should be aware that (laminar) air flow past the surface of the wing does NOT decrease the total pressure rather it results in a reduction in STATIC pressure (the equation given by Bernoulli is balanced by the increase in Dynamic pressure)while the total pressure remains a constant... 'Nota Bene' in fact for Bernoulli to be applicable the Total Pressure MUST be a CONSTANT..

14.59 I wanted to know what you were just saying :p v.helpful videos! Keep them coming!

Merci monsieur!

[@stevendavis8409]

this guy couldn`t explain how to punch your way out of a wet paper bag!

[@turkeyphant]

It definitely wasn't the clearest theory lecture I've seen

[@sivis8752]

Could you explain the best glide method about polar curve in climb/headwind? a little bit of both brake?
