This is pretty cool. so what is paragliding. I thought it was like a parasail where you sit in a chair and bail out of a plane instead of being towed by a boat. this just looks like standard parachuting only they're crashing into each other :|
I actually saw a frontal collapse in person.. granted the guy was bein an idiot and it was at fifty feet. A reserve would not have helped in that situation but I still fly with one. 2:25 did not have one either after a spiral... yikes!
i like the music, but me being very young in the paragliding community might have something to do with that, and they were doing SIV training, or testing there wings to see what they do, and @ryani810 i also fly ppg, and get a reserve it will save your ass when you least expect it,
Allen (15yr old ppg, paraglider, and speedglider pilot)
I have a few ppg videos posted, I like the music. I think you might find that most of the people in the sport are kinda dorky old guys. Oh well, good to see some youth other than myself in the sport. I fly without a reserve, this video "intentional or not" kinda makes me want to get one. Good Vid!
Some clubs in UK wil get you to club pilot level, licenced AND all kit pruchase for about £2.5k. You can but a wing for less than £1k. Cheaper second hand.
Most of the accidents on this vid seem intended as they are flying over water. Which most paraglider pilots dont do. Unless they are trying or learning aerobatic maneuvers. If you get the right training by a good instructor and you fly when the conditions are right the chance of anything happening when you need a reserve parachute are pretty slim.
hmmm it seems that so many of these primary parachutes malfunction, but the reserve chutes are more reliable, maybe they need to make the primary chute just like the reserve chute!
I asked some of the guys at the gliding club here about it, they said get a hang glider. Paragliding is like sitting in an arm chair.... waiting for something bad to happen. I'm going for a HG now
They gave you advice that will save your life. Paragliders aren't safe. I saw an experienced pilot have a collapse, toss his reserve, and land in the trees...all the while, hang gliders were flying above the incident. Same air, different wing.
The reason that they are all over water is that these pilots are either into acro (like me) and competitions are usually done over water for safety. Or they are practicing moves on an SIV course (Simulated Incidents en Vol} its a French term generally used to describe practicing maneuvers that seldom occure naturally to prepare yourseld for those rare occasions that you have some bad air or make a mistake.
I haven't read all the comments. Did somebody already say these were all done on purpose from professionals? Notice the lake in every crash? I'm sure somebody else has already said it, but just in case . . that's what's going on. And yes, the music is awful.
Too bad a good video has such terrible music. I had to hit the mute button on my computer since I got tired of hearing the F word over and over. I guess if you are 13 years old then this music is cool. Otherwise, good video.
what is everybody arguing about? this is a reserve parachute deployment clinic, done over water, it prepares experienced paraglider pilots and trains them for that critical moment, nothing more, nothing less.
I always wondered if these guys have some sort of backup. Good job they do.
They are doing a dangerous sport, but they have obviously done all that can be done to make it as safe as possible, let people have fun man don't try to wrap everyone up in cotton wool.
why stupid? it;s an awesome sports and paragliders accept that its also dangerous, better to have a reserve chute. stupid would be to fly without one.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
you should see what our bitches put in their mouth for money these days, god bless whores, cheaper in the end to and you don't have to hear them bitch and complain
I am a hang glider pilot but love and respect both sides as the sky is for sharing. I am just thankful to see the chute save you guys. A sucker for a happy ending :))
Do you have spring loaded reserves? When I jumped in the Army we had spring loaded reserves; just pull the handle and it pops out. Very cool though I think I want to try the powered version.
No spring loaded reserves on a paraglider. That's for parachutes. Paragliders have a single bridal to the deployment bag you grab the bag and toss it out into clean air, it has a pilot chute attached/integrated with the freebad and it pops off when line stretch is reached. All those deployments are physically thrown.
I have not heard of their use with paragliders and so I am not familiar with their use. I know there are deployment systems for small fixed wing aircraft like this, but again I am not familiar with them. I'm also a skydiver and I spoke with a military HALO jumper once who mentioned a system like this, but he was light on details sports jumpers do not use equipment like this.
Yea I forgot to mention that...Ghetto music does NOT mix with paragliding or anything pure and decent for that matter. What do you mean sim?...that was real ground and a real spiral nothing simulated about it.
Id be very surprised if that spiral to the ground wasn't fatal or didnt cause serious injury...he either didnt have a reserve or didnt think of/feel it neccesary to pull the reserve(b/c he thought he would be able to get out of the spiral)...either way I feel bad for him and am sorry if he died.
He's actually probably okay - even though that did look pretty grim. This whole video is just simulated accidents, so that death spiral was probably just a more extreme sim.
You'll also notice that every landing is in water. That's no accident. These guys are pushing it really hard on purpose and doing it over water so they don't get hurt.
Your average pilot isn't out doing this stuff every day.
you are so "smart". I saw your kind, they know everything...in theory...they even try to explain to you how things should be made...although when asked to do them by themselves they can't. this is just the sae knid of ppl like you, they are so smart. kiss my arse
actually, yes i am smart, and not only can i explain how a lot of things are done, but i actually can do it by myself.. see.. you were wrong.. you dont know people like me :) ... simple stupid )
They may be doing the maneuvers and "incidents" (like collapses) on purpose, but the point of an SIV clinic is to learn to recover from/correct the problem: they are not up there to chuck the laundry on purpose.
1. SIV or Safety training (for me it seems Lake Bohinj, Slovenia)
2. Bohinj also, midair on SIV.
3.Acro competition, mistake
4.Seems SIV, looks bad.
5. SIV, Monaco. I even know the pilot.
Right spin, then left spin. These were instructed :) He wasn't able to manage the situation properly. However the SAT (an acro manouver) in the end is nice :)
