    My friend, I'm from Brazil but my biggest dream is to live in a country that has I imagine and I've seen several videos of Kate with Esnolbord speed flying with I thought it was incredible, I've never seen snow, it must be very good

    Great stuff here, learned a few tips on the "French" launch, which I picked up in Chamonix over 10 years ago. I would like to add a technique for high-wind launches. I teach in the high Colorado mountains, and we get STRONG winds here, usually stronger than what most Euros would fly in. No hands in toggles for starters, get your wing ready to throw out UPSIDE- DOWN, right from the beginning, toss it uphill and downwind, letting it pop out nose down, it won't (can't) go anywhere. Your hands will be completely free, so now, you have time to check your harness, wing, lines, start the GoPro, pull your goggles down, stash your stuff sack, whatever. The brake toggles will be sitting right on top waiting for you to go. Skis across the hill and into any x-wind, then you just pull up one corner of the wing in what is basically an upside-down cobra. Do NOT pull the wing completely upright, but into a traction skiing position with wing-tip on it's side, and let the wing pull you ACROSS the hill. Once you pick up some speed, you start turning your SKIS down the hill, while gradually letting the wing cross over your head, by pulling a bit of brake towards your turn. This works in VERY strong winds, but most be practiced on flat ground without skis to get comfy with it. Demonstrated in the first minute or so of this video at Valfrejus. czcams.com/video/PKzE2_NQQrE/video.html

      @@JANI137- Since I fly in both US and Alps for 25 years now, can factually say that it's windier in the US. In fact, most US pilots struggle flying in Europe because we almost never have to do no-wind-forward launches.

      @@ProSpeedflying - I'll be in Valfrejus in a week or so, and need to make a full video from de-bagging to launch of this method, for now, all I have is this from a few days ago. Ridgeline in Colorado, blowing 20K (35kph) or so, plus gusty. Doesn't show set-up, but does show pulling up from upside-down and transition to wingtip on side, to turning around. czcams.com/video/0vmXk1HrdKU/video.html

      I don't know how to do it)) for the winds I fly in there is always a possibility to inflate a speedwing in a calmer phase/place.

    Would you fly in an eagle model ornithopter?
