I love to explore new mountains and it's quite rare, that the conditions are perfect. It's quite amazing how little space a paraglider needs to launch.
Some of these i think “man, he’s good.” Others i think “man, he’s brave” others “man, he’s stupid”. But ALL of them i know “this guy fucking LOVES TO FLY AND I LOVE TO WATCH!” Hell yes brother!!!
God has said in the Quran: { O mankind, worship your Lord, who created you and those before you, that you may become righteous - ( 2:21 ) [He] who made for you the earth a bed [spread out] and the sky a ceiling and sent down from the sky, rain and brought forth thereby fruits as provision for you. So do not attribute to Allah equals while you know [that there is nothing similar to Him]. ( 2:22 ) And if you are in doubt about what We have sent down upon Our Servant [Muhammad], then produce a surah the like thereof and call upon your witnesses other than Allah, if you should be truthful. ( 2:23 ) But if you do not - and you will never be able to - then fear the Fire, whose fuel is men and stones, prepared for the disbelievers.( 2:24 ) And give good tidings to those who believe and do righteous deeds that they will have gardens [in Paradise] beneath which rivers flow. Whenever they are provided with a provision of fruit therefrom, they will say, "This is what we were provided with before." And it is given to them in likeness. And they will have therein purified spouses, and they will abide therein eternally. ( 2:25 ) Quran
ahmd abdallah oh my dear, I do not know what is relation this unseen thing message between buying second hand wings. 😁 I’ll waste half of my life being an imam and I can tell you now; who is trying to make you fear (even messages) , they just telling you lies. Trying to deceiving you for control, gaining any kind of values. God, Allah, Ra, Odin or all of others need you, you don’t need them. You just need believe yourself and nature. Wish you all best friend. 🤟
Once again a very amusing and hasko typical video.... yeah i watched every second because this is a real thriller. You never know what happens ...hasko 😅
I agree that your launch style is weird but whatever suits you man as long as you're safe. On the other hand, this is one of the best paragliding videos I've seen recently. I love tricky logging road type launches.
Such great practice with all the different scenarios, but definitely not for us p2 beginners, such as me. Great fun to watch though. Thanks for sharing this!
On snow it is easier to start with skis. At landing, when there is snow, it is much easier also. If there is no snow, you can drop the skis at 2 meters height before landing.
@@hasidavid2 Red colour looks very orange, that's why I thought of XA4. Have you switched it?! I love this glider. I'm amazed of its stability in rough air. Stay safe!
I think, it would be easier in any case to grab the right brake handles before starting to pump and take off... 🤔 But okay, it didn't go completely wrong ;-)
@@hasidavid2 Absolutely beautiful! I grew in Switzerland and wouldn't have even guessed haha. They look similar to me but I guess any forested tall mountains with towns in valleys would too.
Dude, get the breaks around your wrists. The correct ones. This will make your life so much easier because grabbing and swapping them always costs you that crucial second in at least half of all the take offs! And if don't manage to raise the wing like this because you stall it, you need longer break lines. That's the only drawback if you like the breaks very short.
Wow. At some moments I would feel very uncomfortable :-). One question: Why don't you hold your toggles in the appropriate hands before and during launch? At some moments your glider seemed not in control, and during that moment you had to 'search' for your toggles. To me, and maybe for others here too, I think it's crucial to have them in your hands to avoid dangerous situations. But maybe it's the way to launch this type of EN-D class wing?
I get this a lot, it's just how I learnt to launch and am most comfortable with. The advantage is, that i can fully control both brakes individually during inflation, which is often key if the layout is not perfect or the winds are shifting. The obvious disadvantage is, that I have to switch the brakes when I turn around.
@@hasidavid2 No offense but I think you learned the wrong way... Try a different method of launching. Your method is dangerous. Your launches prove that. Those are some of the sketchiest launches from a D pilot I've ever seen.
@@teddyruxpin3811 In my opinion many of these launches wouldn't be possible with any other method. Also please elaborate WHY you think, my technique it is more dangerous, than any other?
@@hasidavid2 The technique being taught at least in some countries (and I was taught that 20 years ago) is that you already hold the breaks in the correct hands. You just have to learn that you have the hands reversed when doing the revers launch. I saw some school in Slovenia last year probably teaching 'your' method and I was really scared - the students lifted the canopy, turned round, dropped the breaks, frantically tried to find them again - and sometimes did not. This is asking for a problem.
@@hasidavid2 I'm not trying to belittle you or make fun of you. I'm really just trying to help because it's obvious your method is dangerous. I've seen too many of my friends die paragliding. Even though I don't know you, I still don't want another pilot to die from a preventable accident.
The method you are using is dangerous for many reasons. You're standing on the side of cliffs and steep terrain. You're turning around fumbling around trying to grab for your brake handles. I already saw 1 line twist and 1 twisted brake in your videos. Yeah it'll work for you 99% of the time but under the right combination of mistakes your method could be deadly. What if you have a cravat on the left side that you don't notice and you turn around to grab your left brake but you can't reach it in time? Yeah you will probably be able to deal with it most of the time BUT it could be deadly under the wrong combination of circumstances. Also, at very windy or thermic launches, it's much better to have a firm hand on your brakes before you even get off the ground. Look at any pro and you'll never see them fumbling around looking for their brakes while they are launching, especially on sketchy launches like in your videos. Go practice ground handling with a different method. Yeah it'll feel really weird for the first few hours but trust me (and everyone else) it's way safer and you'll have more control once you master it. Just because your method may feel comfortable to you doesn't mean it's safe. Here's what I do for a reverse launch: Take one brake in each hand. Right hand grabs right brake, left hand grabs left brake so you don't have to do any switching later. Now lift up each A riser, one in each hand. Right hand goes to right A riser, left hand goes to left A riser. It'll look backwards and the lines will be crossed when doing a reverse launch but you already know that. If the right side of the wing is coming up faster than the left side, I will put both A risers into my left hand and brake a little with my right hand. But if that's not enough, I will drop my right A riser. That's probably hard to understand through text but just go out and try it for a few hours. It'll feel weird but force yourself to do it. You still have lots of control and you have many options... You can drop an A riser, you can grab it again, you can grab both A risers with one hand, you can even pump a brake while you are pulling up your A risers. And you still have both brakes in your hand. I really don't see a downside to it and I've practiced both methods. If you feel like you don't have as much control with the new method, then you aren't doing it right. Just keep practicing and you'll get it eventually. Good luck. Fly safe.
Wäre auf jeden Fall einfacher, aber weniger eine Herausforderung. Ich gehe auch oft auf Strecke von irgendwelche Startplätze und besitze außerdem selber keinen A Schirm.
Starting forward to me it has proven much easier and safer. Yes, you have to feel the canopy position with your hand, and have a look at it just before takeoff.
Thanks For sharing...but I too think that lauching without break toglles in your hand 100% of time is not a good technique.... I do training same technique as yours, but as ground handling in a safe spot and Conditions only... But never for real take off....Hard to break the wing at the top and avoid a front under more moderate conditions using your technique....
manche starts fragwürdig zeitweise relativ null Platz für Fehler-besser gleich beim ersten auflegen den Schirm sauber herrichten das erspart dir den Abbruch ,-) aber alles in allem respekt! Viele würden diese "Startplätze" nicht als solche definieren ;-)
If you closely follow the terrain so you always have it in sight...there's a chance of surviving. But usually it's a really bad idea (rescue helicopter won't fly there too) and you should value your life more, hike down and fly another day
TIme to learn to inflate the glider with the right technique, stop doing that cross hands technique in those extreme takeoffs, sooner or later it will bite you. Learn to do the proper reverse takeoff holding the correct brake in each hand.
Obviously I wanted to launch from the summit, where the slope is perfect, but the clouds came in after a ~4 hour hike through deep snow. Had to get down somehow 😉
2:40 a gust of wind could have easily pulled your glider and yourself across the ridge in certain death. I'd say you had like a 1% chance of dying during that launch. I'm currently doing my license and plan on doing wild mountaintop launches by myself but man...please just spend 5 extra minutes hiking to a place that is actually safe to launch, your life is worth more than that little pride it gives you launching right from the top and not a little to the side :)
Make stupid decisions like you do in every clip of this video is exactly how you get into trouble and seriously hurt yourself. This sport is about good decision making which you clearly can not do.
Some of these i think “man, he’s good.” Others i think “man, he’s brave” others “man, he’s stupid”. But ALL of them i know “this guy fucking LOVES TO FLY AND I LOVE TO WATCH!” Hell yes brother!!!
I will never buy second hand wing from you :-)

"fog is coming"? hell no! you're all the way in it :D
I like how you never launch unless the wing is 100% clean and controlled.
thought that was sarcasm
Please keep uploading videos ... That way we know you're still alive 😉 I hope your wing will never let you down and always happy landings 💪

On snow it is easier to start with skis. At landing, when there is snow, it is much easier also. If there is no snow, you can drop the skis at 2 meters height before landing.
You better leave them on even if you land without snow.
It works perfectly and it doesn't hurt the skis at all.
Nice edit! :)

Nice
Wow! you are a great inspiration!👍

It's an XA3, but didn't like it, switched to a Wild...

nice i like the challange
What the general location? I like it
Great takeoffs! what harness are you flying?

Is it worth flying a D canopy, given the difficult handling?
no,its not.

I am wondering, why do you not hold the brakes while bringing the wing above your head?
But I do. A risers in the right and brakes in the left hand.
