I like the "what would you do?" questions at decisive ppints in the flight. 😊
-
Great video! I'd also love to have a video explaining how to plan a flight and what tools you use to understand how the conditions will be. Its always so hard when multiple websites give very widely different forecasts
-
Your thoughts are invaluable thank you👍👍👍😎😎😎👍❤️
-
Great format of thinking aloud, enjoyed it! 👍
-
that first zoom out shot was epic!
-
I love these kind of thought process videos so when your pilot you can stay in front of the paraglider you've got to be in front of the aircraft not behind reacting you have to be in front taking actions and making decisions or you're going to get a lot of trouble.

It seems you have good talent explaing things, aren't you a teacher? Loud thinking in crux point "what should I do here, what are possibilities" and why you have choosen the path, is a gold.(it does not matter wheter you were really thinking it in the moment or you did it in post analysis)
-
I like these videos explaining your thoughts during the flights. Always interesting to follow. Thanks!
-
Thanks for your detailed thinking process. Very helpful for pilots progressing in XC flying like me. I'm really looking forward to watch more content like this. Thank you
-
Most useful video I've seen for a while. Great editing with the 360 camera, avoiding too much of the wide open field of view. Thanks.
-
Very nice video, who make us thinking about possible otions. Thank's !
-
Nice climb out! I refer to the mountain you first arrived at as "the island" because it's big and sticks out from the flats in front of it and the bigger terrain behind it. It's one of my favorite places to fly past in Colombia. Have also toplanded and relaunched from different spots on it a handful of times :)
-
Quite educational, and really well edited! I take that as motivation to not chicken out too early. It is worth noting to beginners though that you should not lose your safe landing options out of sight while trying hard (and patiently!) to continue your flight. I've never been to Colombia though, might be a non issue there terrain-wise.

-

Mr Rogers or Bob Ross of XC paragliding? you make the call

Excellent video! Reminds me I need to be more patient! One question: it looks like they valley you ended up in only had a dirt road, weren’t you concerned about retrieval? That would have been quite a big hike out. Many times this thought limits my moves
