General discussion

Hi guys, sorry if it was posted somewhere else, but I would just like to know is it a spesific requirement or order it should be done in. SIV or sports license first for a pilot of 115 flights? whats your view ?

thank you in advance

Hi Everybody,

I guess I am the last arrived in this forum, which look really interesting and cool. I am not an Acro pilot, although I really enjoying seeing you boys, but I am really your 'average paraglider pilot' . I live in a pretty flat place (only a small ridge available with Northerly wind) and while my paramotor friends fly all the weekends I am pretty much earthbound most of the time for my refusal to go 'noisy'.

hi for those who are visiting to Pokhara NEPAL. we got cottages for rent . veryclosed to Landing area, beautiful views of lake.

Any idea why???

Wondering if I can get a few thoughts from the more experienced acro peeps. My buddy got hurt the other day when both of his reserves ended up going into his wing. He was twisted up and the glider was either in heli or tailslide. He wasn't falling fast enough for the reserve to deploy and I think it just wrapped around the lines. He ended up hitting the ground and got very lucky with a broken foot.

Let's do a brainstorm session together!
It is all about the Freestyle 3!
The evolution continues!
We love the current Freestyle 2 glider. You can:

- walk up the mountains (weight size 20 is 4,2 kg)
- go for XC flying (good glide ratio about 8+)
- do Acro flying (12G)
- feel the glider, let it immediately act how you want
- fly in super strong soaring conditions because it is fast
- .....

There are many good things, but also things to do better.

WE WANT YOUR IDEAS!
