so, i watched this several times. It looks to me like Jonny was correcting a right turn by shifting his weight left. During the correction he "fell" of the rope(steel cable?), causing the loading on the glider to suddenly increase. Perhaps if he had stopped trying to correct the turn the moment he started to fall off the rope?
Anyway... I thought the change in loading on the glider was the root cause of the over-correction
there's quiet a bit of rotor in that corner when it's coming from north of west. site is ~W. rotored; got crossed up; right wing out front and into lift band; left wing back in compression/rotor. doomed from there. ..but, who knows?
hmmm Im glad perth is 3rd windiest city in the world cause im considering heading to light flight as soon as i have the dosh. Is the FUN a good glider for its cost...pm me back plz!
the Fun is an excellent glider! for sure, hook up with LF when you're ready. or even, just make contact and come out for a look when we go flying. :o)
hahahahahaha

nice control! the main problem being you can t tuck you wings behind your back once you ve landed. was that a barb wire fence you got dragged over?

To be a world champion pilot I guess you need to continually stretch your limits!
