wow, lot's of good advice and no idiots flaming you (only read 1st page). I wish you well in perfecting your landings.

Fly well, fly high, fly safe brother.....

...hands on the downtubes a bit too long...? I usually go to the uprights before

entering roundout at the latest.

Yes hands higher will help a little, the thing that will really sort your flare out however, is this:

You do not "push" the bar out to kill a gliders forward momentum, you "rotate" the uprights and wing over your head, works every time.

Summary, hand up, push and lift simultaneously,

Hands higher or your won't push enough

[MrAndrew1101]

you need to get your body upright and hands higher up the uprights. push upwards not just outwards

great video what camera? by the way get your hands higher on the tubes and hips forward this will sort your landings
