Paramotor/Paraglider Training/Kiting at Fort Taber
Here is some great training down at Fort Taber that has some excellent laminar winds and a large grassy space to play! When I get more time under my belt with my spot landings I look forward to being to fly from here! The audio is ok, but the wind can be a bit loud... I need to get some better audio equipment Help support my adventures on Patron! https://www.patreon.com/PeterDragon 00:00 - kiting begin! 00:55 - reverse big ears 01:30 - bring down for adjustments 01:38 - easy inflate by sitting! 02:30 - brakes can do more than I realized and learned way more with my continued training/kiting 03:15 - control with brake lines 03:30 - stall points/time and recovery 04:48 - hands free! 06:00 - forward big ears 06:30 - paragliding launch test 06:50 - oops, brake line twist 07:25 - flying big ears 08:15 - B-line stalls 08:50 - recovery from a collapse (intentional by pulling A-lines) 09:40 - half very big ear (half collapse) and still fly 09:58 - tuck/tangle half of wing and recover 10:10 - keeping position with good brake usage 10:50 - paragliding launch and butterfly back down! 11:50 - controlling with the C-risers only 12:30 - tip line control 14:00 - paragliding launch, butterfly back down and recover collapse 15:50 - paragliding launch abort 16:25 - twinkle toes with winds picking up, really time to go 17:10 - C-riser take-down in higher winds (don't forget to run towards the glider!
