This is like the timing when you write a swing set has a child except the top of it is moving. Thanks a million, for being a hub where information can pass between Pilots.

[@josephfreeman5289]

Came back after years to share your video with a friend. Great information here dude!

[@josemontalvo4532]

You are the coolest dude in South America! The video sent to you, the person would lose the momentum gain; thus having to start over again. I have seen a guy fall into his Wing and drop like a bomb. The reserve came out to late and he was low. Bad decision and horrible choices. The guy got banged out pretty badly. Your advice was spot on. I’m in the Kiting phase of flying. Waiting for a good day to take out the wing to kite. Today the wind was 20MPH. To strong for a novice like me. I enjoy the air, but Wing Overs and Transversing is beyond my desire to do. I enjoy your vid very much on this subject. May God protect and bless you! Thank you for sharing this vid. Praise Him!

[@jimfuhrman8665]

Thanks Max for another great video! Keep them coming!

[@chrissyvdl6130]

I really like your videos mate - fun to watch!

[@Oomzilla]

Great instruction, love learning from this and... Music is so in tune with the feeling of flying. ✌🏽❤️

[@billcallahan9303]

Mad Max! Thank you for excellent presentation!

[@wayneherron6511]

Very good information here. Thank you brother. God bless you.

[@WoitlBua]

Thanks for the good tips - just learning it properly and I had a small collapse at the high wingtip. I'll try to improve my weightshifting and not lean to the other side to late. I was also flying with skis on so that might have changed the behavior somehow.Great videos - keep on going!

[@miguelmoran7630]

Amazing Video Max, Thank You for Share your Fly Knowledge!!!,

[@hoverparagliding]

Great video max, just what I was looking for. I would have liked to have seen helmet cam view as well as how you filmed it. It's all good information, looking forward to the next one.

[@jesse2006]

so right about weight shift, so many pilots just use handles. got to DANCE with ya wing yo!

[@konasdownhill]

Great tips in this one Max. Never herd of loosening harness waist strap to increase weight shift, but totally makes sense. will defiantly try playing with that next time I fly. Thanks

[@MaxMartini22]

Glad you enjoy it! so when you close your chest/waist strap dampen the movement of your wing but increase the risk of getting twisted, when you open it gets more difficult to twist and you can weightshift more effectively, the wing feels more direct. The proper adjustment is is the distance between your elbow and your fist, which is about 45-48 cm as in the EN/LTF certification. Good luck practicing, fly safe!

[@konasdownhill]

Max Martini thanks, I'll set it up the way you said and see how it feels. Your videos and advice are much appreciated. Fly safe and have fun :)

[@olivierpercebois-garve5506]

The beginner analysis is really nice. It would be cool to see several analysis mixed, i.e, if here the beginner is not doing weight shift aggressively and early enough, then I would like to see next to it someone who does it too aggressively, and then someone who does it more on time, so that I get a feel of what is the right balance.

[@markmcgoveran6811]

Thanks for putting this on here I thought for my flying style I would start out with just learning to weight shift and not use the brakes very much. Thanks for sending this because I'm flying epsilon 9 and it looks like the side of a barn coming through the sky. I'm going to put my risers as far apart as my harness will let me.

[@gavinkidd7477]

GREAT STUFF!

[@mullenaero4486]

great video! Thank you for sharing. I'm looking for a new set of summer gloves. Do you mind sharing what you are wearing?

[@nikolaustang-lee1543]

Thanks alot for this video i am now starting wingovers this is so timely and relevant to my flying now can you do something on backfly when kiting on the ground if possible thanks

[@markmcgoveran6811]

I like you're flying theory I'm learning out of ground handle right now and I thought I would do as much steering with my weight shift as I could and avoid using my breaks so that I wouldn't have pilot error. I'm not sure I want to start out flying inverted is a beginner but this is an interesting video.

[@ripmanridin7092]

Awesome tutorial............

[@juandigital2003]

Now I understand! Thank you

[@simpelpraktis4800]

Master

great vid! just want to k which acro maneuvers i can do with my prion 4 from nova( all ik now is spirale :P)

[@YankeeinSC1]

Thanks Max. I learn from you!

[@577buttfan]

How bout it Yank,i been watching more paraglider videos than PPG videos,so much to learn.

[@FlyBabyFlyPPG]

thank you max

[@paraglidingtalk]

Thank you so much for doing this. I can't wait to see more. I will be sending you are formal invite to the live stream that we will be doing from Southern California. I will keep you posted.

[@MaxMartini22]

didn´t have the time yet to figure it out, but we will make it work... do you mind if make a video about your last incident?

[@paraglidingtalk]

Sure. Have fun. I will be watching for it.

[@odxc2440]

Thanks !!

[@patrickswayze2596]

How do you like flying with ‘free’ brakes? Do you, or can you do a tutorial on free braking vs lined (pullied) brakes? That would be great as a novice pilot ☺️ Thanks Max ✌️

[@simonaire4432]

A a a😊😀😴😴

[@jessielee1784]

Jesus Christ IS King. Thank you for that! Fly Safely.

[@MaxMartini22]

Jessie Lee God bless you!

[@matiastaurizano299]

Hi Max, I have a question because I don't understand as well about the colapses and how I can know that my timming is not correct. Sorry, but that part is really confuse to me. Thank u in advance and thank u for all. Best Regards from Argentina bro!

[@fragoldo1]

Man as always your video: GREAT JOB!!..But, please can you explain it better what do you mean when you say:"I think it the glider collapse above it's to late if it collapses on the tip beneath then it's to soon"? So..can you show me a picture of each situation and explain what's kinde of collaps I'll see when I wrong my timing. Thank's Bro!! you are the best!

[@MaxMartini22]

Cristian Montero let's suppose you weightshifted, you swing under the wing, you are reaching the top of the other side, time to weightshift again but you are too late the wing will collapse the tip on top like the pictures i showed.... I don't have vídeo of that anymore 😒

[@podvohihi]

Hello! Great videos, great job!!! And i need some recommendations from you. I have paramotor with upper FIXED bars, so i can not slide in it, and i can not use my weight. what do i need to do in that case? Best regards fron Russia!)

[@MaxMartini22]

change equipment, you need the weightshift ability

[@AngeloStaCatalina]

Awesome! Do you get a weightlessness feeling when you go over the top or do you always maintain positive G's?

[@MaxMartini22]

Always maintain some g force all the way to keep lines streched

[@glissairin1872]

Hello, thanks you!!! ;-)

[@s0s300]

How to do this in ppg

[@fredericjaquet3729]

Yes ! Jesus Christ is King ! May God bless you ! From a beginner paraglider pilot (18 solo flights) from Switzerland.

[@mogli7016]

check "wing overs by ozon" - nice one- and also: DHV Lehrvideos- Rollen stabilisieren - no need to speak german , just look:-)

[@MaxMartini22]

Jawohl Jürgen! Um die Wingovers zu verstehen muss man alle möglichen Informationen zu sich nehmen, denn all diese Vídeos ergänzen sich.

[@johnnywisconny]

👊😃🤙

[@johnnywisconny]

Nice run down.

[@lam19bo]

Can I do wingovers on a A rated wing?

[@nicoppg1907]

yes

[@abdulrahmanalghasham5761]

Is it the same with paramotor?

[@MaxMartini22]

Abdulrahman Alghasham yes

[@sleimanalisleimanali8158]

Special thanks to omri

[@javiervilla4193]
