Paraglider Takeoff Kaleidoscope XXL #4
Vložit
- čas přidán 20. 12. 2022
- This is just a simple compilation of more than 320 paraglider take offs performed in 2022 (and 1 hang glider ;)). Most of them are single-seated, but there are also several tandem paraglider take offs.
The mix of various launching techniques (forward launch, reverse launch) in diverse weather conditions and on different take off sites is simply interesting to watch, but hopefully can also contribute for paraglider pilots of any skill level to improve their own take off skills. Watch and reflect what is good and what could be done better. Especially for low-airtime pilots mental training (mental dry runs) can help to preserve or even improve their skills during the time they have no opportunity to fly.
Of course this is neither a tutorial nor could it replace professional training!
Although not all take off attempts are successful and some might look risky, thankfully nobody got injured, not even slightly.
There is no associated sound in this video. So turn on your favourite music and enjoy the show! ;)

Originally, this video was cut to a mix by Worakls / hungry-music-podcast-e... . Bec of copyright its not possible to publish it. You could mute the video and play it in the background ;) - Sport
6:06 The infamous "targeting the lonely tree" problem. My paragliding instructor always used to say "If there is a tree, don't look at it! Look where you want to go, not where you don't want to go".
Yes, you are absolutely right, the "lonely tree" is a classic! ;D
In this case, I think, it's something more. The pilot tries to correct his direction, he even overcorrects by stalling the right side of the wing. I think, he is just too late. If he stabilized the wing before he started running / accelerating for takeoff, he would go just fine. This kind of wing (EN-D) leaves minimal scope for mistakes...
Object fixation has put many of pilots in that lonely tree
Great video! Thank you Cloud Nine!
Thank you KvDrais! :) Glad you enjoyed it!
Vielen, vielen Dank für deine tollen Kaleidoskopvideos! Ich gucke sie regelmäßig immer wieder und hab dadurch scho nen Adleranalyseblick bekommen! Bitte nicht aufhören damit!
Hallo Steffi, danke für die schöne Rückmeldung! Im Herbst werde ich sicher wieder genug Material zusammen haben für eine weitere Ausgabe ;)
sehr gut mit titteln ! danke
Gerne!
Jetzt haben alle Videos die Locations in den Untertiteln :)
Nice.........watched the whole thing, in 15min. intervals. ....................subbed!
Thank you! :)
Here you have some more to watch now ;) czcams.com/video/dX-bYVu-XAQ/video.html
Thanks for sharing. I learnt a lot from your video
You're very wellcome! 😃👍
I subscribed just for this!
Thank you! :)
Totally enjoyable! Nice tunes too, love these! Thanks Cloud 9 /\/\/\/\/\
Thank you Sandra! :)
Richtiger Start:
Aufziephase, Kontrollblick und dann erst die Entscheidung zum Starten.
Manche starten schon beim ersten Schritt 😂😂
Da hast du vollkommen recht! ;)
Gute Kontrolle beim Start benötigt viel Training, um jederzeit Ruhe und Überblick zu bewahren und ggf. abbrechen zu können. Leider wird dies nicht von allen praktiziert, für sie geht es nur ums Fliegen und sie sind jedes mal erneut froh, wenn sie irgendwie in die Luft gekommen sind...
Übrigens, laut neuestem DHV-Wording spricht man nicht mehr vom "aufziehen" des Schirms, sondern vom "aufstellen". (Entsprechend nun "Aufstellphase".) Begründet wird dies damit, dass "aufziehen" zu agressiv bzw. zu schnell und zu kräftig klingt, das neue "aufstellen" dagegen mehr Ruhe suggerieren soll. Man kann mit Sicherheit darüber diskutieren, wie wichtig diese "Wortklauberei" ist, der Grundgedanke dahinter ist natürlich richtig.
Cool Vids..
Grazie mille e tanti saluti! :))
Great video and nice music! Keep on going 👌 love the scene at min. 42:20
Thank you so much! :))
this Kaleidoscope series is more educating, than the Lizenz trainigcourse at the practice hill. It shows all possible and impossible, that can happen in all variations. And that hustling around beeing to fast is always a bad way, and skipping the calm controled part bevor doing the final run doesnt help in anyway, except zero to tailwind launches ther you need to be fast, If you run you fly-if you dont run you dont fly!
Thank you so much!
Yes you are right. Performing a nice and good takeoff is indeed a real art! Sometimes fast reactions are needed, but with true and intuitive glider control, the reactions are so fast that they barely need to be big, and even a takeoff under challenging conditions looks very calm and relaxed.
It needs a lot of training to reach this mastery, which only very few pilots in this compilation already have achieved.
Yes it's really important to take your time and stay calm in any phase of the takeoff, only use as much speed as is needed and not more. Almost always it's better to abort a "lazy" launch, than to rush out without control.
Thank you for your appreciation and allways happy landings! :)
good view
Thank you, I'm happy you enjoy it! :)
wouw amazing
thx! :)
20:30 That's a great save.
Yes, but some luck involved! Better not lose pressure and get the collapse in the first place. With some more training, the collapse would not have happened! Groundhandling, kiting the wing, training is the key for safe flying!
Good
Thanks :)
Commentary? Locations would add interest!
When I find the time for that, I'll definitely do it!
Have a look at Kaleidoscope #1 czcams.com/video/K1ShQM9PtkQ/video.html
What do you think about the idea putting the locations in the subtitles, so anyone can decide to show or hide it?
There you go ;)
Wie Fahrlässig und Plichtverletzend manche starten, indem sie den Kontrollblick nicht machen.
Andere denken, wenn sie wie Hampelmänner losrennen sind sie die besten Piloten 😂😂😂
Über den Wert des Kontrollblicks streiten sich auch die Experten. Argumente sind etwa:
- Um tatsächlich visuell einen Knoten erkennen zu können, braucht es in vielen Startbedingungen ein Fähigkeitslevel, das für Gelegenheitsflieger kaum zu erreichen bzw. zu halten ist.
- Kleine Knoten sind für jeden schwer zu erkennen (und in der Luft kein kritisches Problem, wenn man den Umgang damit trainiert hat).
- Große Knoten sind schon beim Aufziehen über den assymetrischen Druck auf Karabiner und Arme bzw. die abnormale Steigphase erkennbar.
- Die sicherste Vorsorge gegen Leinenknoten und -Überwürfe ist ein sauberer Vorflugcheck ("Leinensortieren").
Konsens unter fast allen ExpertInnen ist aber, dass der Kontrollblick dennoch besonders deswegen wertvoll ist, weil er den Piloten daran erinnert, den Schirm möglichst ruhig aufzuziehen und noch einmal "innezuhalten" (stehenbleiben ist hier nicht unbedingt gemeint ;)), um bewusst eine Entscheidung für Abbruch oder Start zu treffen.
It's very strange that after many starts,in the acceleration phase,the pilots do not lean forward,do not load the wing,and are surprised that there will be a crash and not flight..
One could discuss how much leaning forward is good. Certainly theres is also a too much. I would never recommend the old "torpedo launch" technique with upper body almost parallel to the ground and arms fully straightened to the back, as you put away a major part of glider control options.
But I absolutely agree that a good acceleration phase with proper timing and sufficient speed plays a major role in a safe and elegant takeoff!
I just started paragliding after 30 years of skydiving. I love your videos. I find them both educational and entertaining.
But please tell me the name of the last song (fast guitar) and the artist.
Thank you
Thank you so much, Sean Mathis! I'm glad you enjoy it!
Yeah I like the song you are asking for. It's Champagne Beach by Scandinavianz -> czcams.com/video/_SSNcFax2Kc/video.html
@@cloudnineparagliding Thank you! Once I have some good launch videos, I'll let you know. :-)
What went wrong at 25:30? It looked like he had it.
The pilot applies the brakes just a little bit too early, and more importantly, too much brake. Thus he stalls the wing. In the beginning of the takeoff thats still better than using too little brake and causing the wing to collapse (like in the other scene 20:30). However, stalling the wing after leaving the ground is extremely dangerous of course.
