Hi, your video popped up as suggested, I’ve just posted a video of some paragliders I filmed at Europe’s tallest sand dune last month! I found it fascinating, was a brill day. Thanks for making your video to show your progression! It looks difficult. Hope you’ll spare 3 mins to see my ground view of you amazing guys and your flying machines 🤣👍🏻. I’ve subscribed to you, look forward to seeing your progress! Jackie

I don't understand why you mention kitesurfing, (apples- bananas) but anyway, this place looks awesome. Where is it?

[@FreakensNL]

It's the same my dude... pink or green apple.. still an apple You are clearly not a kitesurfer

[@faqui1969]

@@FreakensNL wrong, I've been paragliding for 11 years and kiting for 3. Two complete different thinks. Clearly your new to one of them or both

Maybe you didn't actually want to ridge soar like the others seen in the video, but you kept flying out of the lift zone, when you just needed to fly parallel to the dunes, instead of flying straight out? Perhaps this was all part of your 'progression' and you tried to stay in the lift zone in subsequent flights?

[@FreakensNL]

Yes, was just trying to get a feel for it. first wanted to do some glides Next step was staying in the lift.

hm looks fun. Though a tad irresponsible. Already don't like all the noobs without proper training in kitesurfing. Its more fatal in paragliding. You didn't know how to out manouver and a lot of people came flying from that one side. Plus loads of people on the beach. Well, until something happens its all fun and joy.
