Paraglider Kiting Clinic - Point Rat Flyin 2019

[@josemontalvo4532]

It has been five years since I last flown. I need to return to Kiting a Paraglider before I take to the skies on my 250 cc BlackHawk Bigfoot Intruder. Thank you for sharing. You got me excited about flying again.

Thanks for this. I think the A riser in each hand technique is good in lighter wind. I do a lot of coastal flying and the wind speed is usually higher than a thermalling site. In those situations I like the A risers in one hand and rear risers in the other. Those rear riser help control the wing as it lifts thru the power band at about 45°. As the wing is about to enter that power zone, yank those rear risers which momentarily deflates the wing as it goes thru the power zone. That way you dont get dragged and the wing won't fully inflate until it's overhead and ready to fly.

This is one of the best kitting videos I've seen so far! Thanks!!

[@ElsmoreHomes]

Great video - lots to play with!

[@SharkyintheSky]

Good stuff here. Gonna watch this a few more times in the weeks ahead. Thanks.

[@Hyperious_in_the_air]

dude is a master for sure. tons of great info, especially that simulated speedbar in reverse kite.

[@clauderousseau4398]

I prefer the steering option offered by the rear risers. A's in my right hand, arm straight, steering with C's. If very windy, just back into wind not touching the A's, each C's in a hand, de-power walking to the wind, knees bent. Your hands through the controls ready to stop the wing at apex once you have achieved yaw control. I never let the controls flopping around.

Got my first stunt kite from “Into the wind” in 1990. Have a garage full of kites, now it’s time....

"Formibable wing control, not acrobatic, but practical, pragmatic, really and greatly useful. Unfortunately, the audio quality is not so high, and in various parts of the video, I have great difficult to understand the fundamental explanations of Steve Mayer, and even the subtitle, are full of errors and lacking parts. Can someone supply me the correct text of the video, or is available, even on sale, a dvd with a good audio ? Are available other kiting video of Steve Mayer? Thank you very much!!"

Steve is the best

Amazing video :O

[@ripmanridin7092]

Good info! Thanks

[@GodzillaGoesGaga]

Do these clinics still run ?

[@fionaphillips3458]

Tannum Sands has a proliferation of these, if I didn't know better I would say they were signalling to boats off the port equipped with small boats to land drug loads but that is just a guess, bit like a smugglers HOLE, ain't it ?

[@Renatinha021]

ai e uma vela gostaria de ter uma desta

[@johnhomles2711]

What wind speed do u do this in

[@vmlinuxz]

Where is this wonderful kiting location? I'd kill for some nice air like that to practice in.

[@chillyc76]

That's Point of the Mountain Flight Park in Utah. I was there that day. It was a real shit show, I counted over 50 wings in the air at one time!
