General discussion

Hello everybody , i just introduce myself, I'm a lambda paraglider pilot but I'm building rc paragliders or paramotors to try every tricks I'm to chicken to try in real =D
I greatly enjoy design , and sew mini-acro wings inspired of the real ones . I'm now trying to do some tumbling, and then maybe someday infinity will come ! (I have already done a shitty and ugly tumbling but it still a kind of tumbling ;D) And it is possible to do every thing you do in real : Mystiflip , mac twist , Sat , helico ,fullstall , ...

Dear Pal
Are you going to make D-bag / acro cource in Europe on 2011?
I'm most interesting in D-bag course, but also acro course.

Vielleicht hat jemand Lust mitzumachen

Some days ago i tryed a wing without the pulley's. It felt really strange. What are the advantages of removing the pulleys? In wich cases is it usefull, maybe in helicopter?

Good flights!!!

Bad news reached us from Lenggriss in Bavaria. One of our friends, Martin Gwosdz, crashed with his paraglider.
With his 32 years, the Acro community has lost a friendly, happy and peaceful person.

We offer our deepest sympathy to his family!!!

i think this may be up here already but, do you need any skydiving or base jumping experience to use the harness? and how much does an average base canopy cost for my weight (65kg naked pilot weight) ? because i happen to be on a budget (15year old, only summer job) and Pal how does the harness feel compared to the older versions of acro harness, like the acro 3 and is there extra padding like the Ava sport harness for the more intense tricks?
