SIV update

Just a short film using some of the footage we shot during this SIV season. Introducing 2-stage stalls, wingover tuck control and reserve deployment tips. We will be making more short films addressing paraglider control over winter so please stay tuned.

Always love to listen to your voice Jocky. Makes paragliding seem like a perfectly sane thing to do. 😊👍

[@JockySandersonparagliding]

Ah thanks Bruce. I will keep them coming as long as you appreciate them.

[@istrasoft]

and very safe as well, jocky is every pilot's guardian angel's voice :)

[@ohakuneyachtclub8753]

anyone thinking about taking that next step and doing an SIV I highly recommend jocky. I did his SIV in turkey this year and now im a way better pilot. !! a lot more confident and safer. his calming voice when you are in the air is so valuable. I trust him and hope you get the chance to as well. you should learn from this master while you can.

[@JockySandersonparagliding]

Ah thanks. I am pleased you enjoyed the course.

[@daviddootson9016]

Enjoyed the video thanks for sharing

[@barkin-brit486]

Yup, may have to get to Old next year and do another SIV. Pretty sure Jocky's calm voice on the radio helps!

[@davidstaples1668]

Thanks Jocky, its always good to hear from you. I've got to schedule an SIV w/you someday soon.

[@JockySandersonparagliding]

Definitely.

[@markmcgoveran6811]

Oh my God. It looks as tricky as a barrel full of devil juice. Then you're saying it's not as easy as it looks. I saw a guy with another Wing who had his risers mounted too far apart. His stuff was flopping around so hard he didn't have a chance of flying anything backwards.

[@PhilippeLarcher]

dammit I have the same life jacket but my stalls aren't that smooth. I should try in butterfly valley.

[@astrophiletrades]

This is so helpful for every paragliding pilots. Thank you so much.

[@JockySandersonparagliding]

It's a pleasure Sohan. there are more to come.

Thanks mate. I hope you are well. I have another update coming this week.

[@sjgyomrey]

great update Jockey... nice one dude : ) ... Ive been on several Jockey SIV's... he's without a doubt one the worlds best siv instructors... (am not just saying that)...

[@JockySandersonparagliding]

Thanks Steve

[@Ben-ln6jg]

When are you coming back to Australia would love to do an SIV with you.

[@JockySandersonparagliding]

on the 2nd February for a holiday contact Roger at SkyOut paragliding for the SIV details.

[@johannordenfelt58]

Thanks Jocky! Allways a pleasure to listen to your advice!

[@JockySandersonparagliding]

Thanks Johan.

[@didierllvr3793]

half expected my footage to come up as an example how not to react when the outside collapses in wingover :D good times

[@JockySandersonparagliding]

Ah yes, yours was good Didier. I will did that up for next time. thanks and I hope you are well

[@brenthollady]

I'm not sure I'm ready for an SIV course I've got about 15 flights on my PPG. What is the other option? A pilatodge did you say? (I'm sure I murdered the spelling)... what is this?

[@JockySandersonparagliding]

Hi Brent, Pilotage is very similar to SIV but we focus more on deflations and manoeuvrability than stalls etc. But if you are happy and doing well then we can move onto higher end moves.

[@FlyBabyFlyPPG]

I did my SiV with 13 flight save my flying career and i love more full stall than spirals hahahaa.

[@modus_ponens]

Nice vid! Thought I would have named the title "SIV techniques", as it greatly demonstrated those

[@modus_ponens]

Checked your other videos, oh wow great information bank of learning material! Now in that context the title is fitting

[@JockySandersonparagliding]

Thanks. We are going to separate the moves and publish them all so they are more bite size. We are out in Turkey filming more moves.

Brilliant. Thank you.

A pleasure mate. Another one is coming soon.

[@BWeinzerl]

Pulling the D's...D equals to brakes?

[@JockySandersonparagliding]

The D’s are easier to pull and de-activate the main better while also offering an option of releasing them to fly if you need forward speed to avoid objects etc.

[@JohnTosti]

I believe when referring to “Ds” jockey just means rear risers if you’re flying a glider that’s a 3 or 2 liner

[@JockySandersonparagliding]

@@JohnTosti D's are the back risers that will go to the back row of lines, (before the brake lines), so yes.

[@lorenzsueess313]

I can’t see what stalling is good for. In turbulent air 90% of pilots won’t be able to master it and close to the ground throwing a reserve is the safest way…

[@JockySandersonparagliding]

You can stall our of a cravat which could pull you into a locked in spiral, if strong. Stalls are not bad and if you are high, it is better to try stalling to recover,( if standard opposite controls do not work), than throw a reserve and end your flight. You don't have to go fully back in a stall to have the result you need and clear a cravat for example.

[@lorenzsueess313]

I would love to see a real situation tutorial with realistic maneuvers to get away from it. e.g. what to do flying close to a rockface when you get a huge asymmetrical colaps.. or how to get away from that turbulent nasty cloud suck… blue sky / wind / problems of getting into a deep spiral when huge climb rate is apparent or what to look for and when a deep spiral or big ears are BDP? Keep up your good work. 👍🙏
