Crash at take off

[GayTruckDriver]

retard running in to that, but hope she's ok

[qHighFlyerp]

Why is there a pole there, just pull it out of the ground

[GoFlyDude]

240p, we meet again

make sure your take-off strip is clear... first rule I learned!

[albatrillo]

carajote....

[vonlubcke]

@albatrillo does it mean idiote?

[sunblazeman]

Perfect weather conditions. Could have been a good flight... :-)

Very good start at the beginning! Everything done right!

At 0:07 was maybe the last moment to abort the start by fully pulling down the right break.

Next time, use the open eye.... :-)

[preazao]

Where is this place? Why you don´t put in the description? Regards.

[miguelonzky]

@preazao The Place is the biggest and prettiest of the whole Mexico THIS PLACE IS TAPALPA JALISCO MÉXICO GRAVEDAD CERO. this colombian guy had anough room to place WING to his left or his right, But instead he placed the glider and himself just behind of the windsok, and the worst he did not took a look to see for obstacles before launch like the paragliding book says. You can check the videos of CANAL DE MIGUELONZKY GRAVEDAD CERO TAPALPA to see what I am talking about. GREETINGS.

[RealVinceSamios]

suggestion... move the pole... lol

[sergiomarchena]

why the post is right in runway

[mateuszzkrakowa]

hahahahah hi is best

[LogicRising]

Windsocked.

[larsiparsi]

there is everywhere pure landscape and he/she crashes a lil rod :D

[Kimogar90]

why start with a windstock in the way Oo

"i could go 10m to the left or right, but no i dont need that, ill run right threw it"

[spektrum33]

I bet his nuts hurt after hitting that pole {+_+}

[chieftanzzz]

Who put that there ?????

[shmenaru]

stupid :))) open your eyes...lol

[Hycrion]

DON`T!

[VicJLo]

hahaha why?

[paulkazjack]

Most paragliders are stupid!

[explorateurdesairs]

Of course !

[smad333]

Why would you ever have such a strong windsock?

[adam3916grant]

FAIL

[HotGaSoLine]

LOOOOL!!!!Good aiming!!!!

[tordaax]

bein alors ?!?

on casse le matériel ?

 =)

[skysurferuk]

And he should sack his optician...

[armandin2048]

@skysurferuk LMFAO - should have gone to Specsavers!

[Ghostuk7]

who put that pole there on a fucking hill. a tree yea i could see him hittin but a pole on the top of a hill, price less....... post and in

[farflyer]

Nice aiming. He can not do it for 2nd times.

C U up in sky..

[flybc2]

I love Tapalpa, huge launch, 300 feet wide.

Looks like target fixation to me.

Was this a student training flight?

I hope you got in the air after sorting everything out!

[A319CROATIA]

those peoples are stupid. i mean.... windsock in front of take off position

[iftyshifty]

What on earth is a windsock doing directly in front of launch anyway?

[fotzenknecht123]

even think so!

[viridae]

There is always a windsock or ribbon in front of launch so you can tell whether the breeze is coming straight.

[rodrigooelke]

Mirro e foi reto!!!ahahaha

[thermalhunter]

I tought you could only see events like this in cartoons :-)

[AMAZINGPROSTATE]

...so it was the windsock's fault!...

[ethneta]

heh heh. nice man.

[Gonzorrr]

haha!

[cloudbase009]

Too funny, yea great place to put what sounded like a steel pole. Must be french:)...nice clouds tho

[spacelord3000]

never look at the object u DO NOT want to fly into ;)

[erikpmort]

thats good i'll remember that

[Rystenthelion]

it's a windsock? shouldn't they move it out of the path of gliders attempting take off?

[betoman01]

yes, it was a windsock very badly placed, they changed it already.

[iverstehnix]

the stick is so small, but paragliders gravitate to it... i can`t understand it

[dorbie]

Control can be counterintuitive. In fighting a wing's direction by pulling against it on the ground it will roll over more and pull you in the opposite direction due to the changing lift vector, it's a struccle you will not win. So to avoid the pole, when your wing goes towards it you MUST move towards the pole faster than the wing and apply opposite brake. Alternatively, stop running forward, the wing will fly forward and frontal aborting the launch immediately.

[pendulum312]

@ my home mount (on weeends tere are up to 200 gliders in air) its a similar situation, but i never seen someone crashing the sack, it isnt that hard to direct while starting

[dorbie]

It's not hard once you learn but for novices it can be counterintuitive and this guy was focused on running forward, in a no-wind situation. He may have previsouly launched with a headwind and expected lift before he got any.

[AlexJunq]

Goooollll !!

[AndreasWolk]

cool
