    great explanations and practical demonstration; the instructor is eloquent and passionate and he speaks with an intonation as if he is reciting poetry which adds weight to his words

    Hand setup was very useful for me.

    Love this video. Proper and correct way to kite. So many instructors here in the US teach kiting and groundhandling with hands out of toggles, pushing and pulling on A’s and rears to control and get wing above your head THEN grabbing the toggles. It makes wing seem “easier” to handle but is incredibly stupid and unsafe. This is approved by the official free flight organization USHPA.

    @3:29 Thank you very very much. I had over 80 hours and still almost every time on launch i question my self where the top break line should go. Now I know it should be on the outside so it doesn't put pressure on the other lines. Make soooo much sense. Thank you already before completing the video!

    One of the best learning videos in my opinion. Very well explained. Have watched a few and this one gave me the most insight. I'm about to learn paragliding and gathering information before my training. Thanks.

    good video - would add two comments...
    i)brakes:- just slide your hand to follow the harness from the carabineer to the brake, can't go wrong (no reaching over etc.)
    ii)turn in reverse launch:- when you're ready, lower your chin to your shoulder in the direction of your turn... stops you straightening up, losing pressure and takes your whole body round in a controlled way

    Really appreciate these videos & the extremely well explained derails!
    Saved this for viewing with flying friends.
    I will learn the "controlled drag", right after I'm done with mastering the "uncontrolled drag" 😂
    Thank you.

    I WANT to have this great experience. BUT my family thinks I'm crazy. How much does a Paraglider cost? Where can I ourchase my very own Paraglider? Do I need a licence to fly? I can't stop thinking about flying. I'm so excited to get started,
    I live in the Dallas Metroplex area, can anyone out here put me in contact with anyone in the area that can help me get started?
    Thank you & HAPPY Safe flying.

      What Is Islam?
      Islam is not just another religion.
      It is the same message preached by Moses, Jesus and Abraham.
      Islam literally means ‘submission to God’ and it teaches us to have a direct relationship with God.
      It reminds us that since God created us, no one should be worshipped except God alone.
      It also teaches that God is nothing like a human being or like anything that we can imagine.
      The concept of God is summarized in the Quran as:
      { “Say, He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He does not give birth, nor was He born, and there is nothing like Him.”} (Quran 112:1-4)
      Becoming a Muslim is not turning your back to Jesus.
      Rather it’s going back to the original teachings of Jesus and obeying him

      Becoming Muslim is absolutely turning your back on Jesus. Christianity teaches Christ is divine, the very begotten Son of God. Islam teaches Jesus was not the Christ, rather a mere prophet like the rest of the prophets. Christianity teaches that all of the prophets have testified/ prophesied about Christ.
      You’re welcome to believe what you like. Just be accurate in your representation of what you believe. Islam is not Christianity! Becoming Muslim is abandoning Christ absolutely.
