Edith's Gap is our East facing site. It is one of the most flown site by Paraglider pilots but its Landing Zone which is an RLF (Restricted Landing Field) is notoriously difficult and bites the unsuspecting PG pilots all too often. As the LZ is very small therefore the site is not flown by HG Pilots. It has been years before anyone HG pilots flew it and landed in the LZ so wanted to conquer it. It was a blast, and required some serious homework. I did the downwind up-slope landing.

  • Very nice, although in Wales RLF is normally a term used to discribe a light wind shallow slope takeoff technique, Run Like Folk or something similar

    Landing in an emergency field like an every day job πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘ You really nailed those fast approach landings bro! πŸš€
  • Nice landing! Getting out of comfort zone is the only way to progress fast.
  • Now then Bari it did buffer so I just watch and I’m blown away 😳 you have big kahuna’s πŸ’ͺ🏻 the landing was precision as you didn’t even run to a stop πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯ Let me see a wing upload one day Bari , you got this πŸ‘ŒπŸ»
  • Like a boss! I wanna start doing this, but I will try to lose weight first (I'm kinda hefty, weighing about. 250-255 lbs). Gym first, hang gliding later is the plan.
  • That's just next next next level flying! Enjoyed the suspenseful music too. Haha I'd love to see some of your video from the rear, so we can see what you see.

    A front view would have been cool on that landing, you landed perfectly in that brown spot!
  • Awesome video and an awesome flight. your getting lots of views too, congrats. I have a work break and would love to come up and fly with you in October if possible. Love that slot launch there, you should consider doing the spring comps in Florida, your landing skills are excellent.
  • I might add that the field might look a little bigger with the Go Pro wide view. Was this the case ?
