@flyingcloclo: yes, i whis sometimes normal paragliders will have such direct angle-of-attack control, too ! though i am still a very beginner in paragliding, instinctively i think that AoA via brakes is much better for direct controlling the paraglider than the current/cassic system via brakes and speed-bar...
the break action act both on the trealing edge and at the same time on the whole angle attack. Break relesed = full speed, break down = mini speed, and that's all !
It's one of the most funny point in that configuration, and I'm sure it should be interesting for other pilots !
Hi, Another interesting video! I become your fan! when we will see the first production model? in the early 90s I started to fly on my first UP paraglider in 2001 I started to kitesurf.... Now I'm ready to try this new toy :)
Oh. My. God. This is amazing! You just made me decide to go back to foil kites!! Kudos!

@flyingcloclo: as a kitesurfer who switched to FS foilkites several years ago, this really looks like an damn exiting new sport to me!
could you please tell me, what/where to learn the basics for this? do i have to learn paragliding before?
thank you!

Wow thats amazing on land, water and high in air. How did you convert your flysurfer to a paraglider? is there a guide on net?

Hi stanceru360 and thanks for your comment,
First, we have nearly the same flying/kiting experience !
At this time I really don't know when a toy like this will be available in the market ...I'm like you, I'm waiting and hope for it !
But when I will know more about it, be sure I'll keep you informed
