🤩Beautiful encounter at 2:55 with the species that we clumsily try to imitate

I enjoyed that you lured them back over the LMFP launch because we got to see them too. They were kind of attacking each other (i think more like brothers than enemies) and we got 4 shots of them behind and below you. They were definitely adolescent bald eagles (2:57 on right you can see the white tail and mottled head) and on the ground we could see the white mottled on one and the other just a bit on the tail

Btw, You're flying too fast. Let the wing rise if it wants to. Don't bridle your horse. 🙂 Or if want this speed, in this case, let your horse rear up. You have the speed to do wing-overs.

@@DraxTube I was practicing flying at speed, since I don’t do that often or long on my usual sled runs. I did later on practice pointing the nose into the wind and trying to hover. That was fun and not as easy as I thought with the occasional gust pushing me off course. I don’t think I’m ready for wing overs yet.

If the voluntary exercise speed it was , that's great! Hummm... Safety in speed you find. Very easy exercise you could, young hang gliding padawan Facing the wind, you move away from the slope until you see it at almost the same altitude as your takeoff. Then, with the wind at your back, you return to the slope gliding. It's so exhilarating, and 360° piece of cake will be! Keep send your hologram images, your progression I follow. May the force be with you. 🤩 PS : Safe and controlled flights you want ? Never touch the dark side of flight, the paraglider 😝
