NOTE: The hang glider pilot shown was asked to do this as a favor by the film maker- a paraglider pilot selling videos to Expert Village
It was intended as a BASIC OVERVIEW only! It may look like complete instruction, but is NOT! There is so much more to learn that can ONLY COME FROM AN INSTRUCTOR BEING PRESENT see USHPA.org
The pilot had no script nor chance to see/edit the video/text. It's pretty good, but (WARNING!) there are several errors, cuts/omissions & a few misrepresentations.
@simontimon2 Go to USHPA.org find an instructor to help you get an appropriate glider for you (size, performance, etc.) I wish that when I had started, I had bought used equipment first. However, what you find on eBay, etc as used equipment is ALMOST ALWAYS very DANGEROUS poorly performing, way too old equipment. The good used equipment gets snapped up by the hang gliding community, and is never sold on ebay. An instructor will have all the connections you need to get good equipment.
