Asymmetric collapse of wing after take off

[AceMcMoron]

What kind of wing was it, in terms of EN/ LTF category?

[Mr7winds]

off course there is the rotor. wind is coming from the right. you can see it during inflation.

Bad luck. Interesting to see how far his wing was turned to the right when he inflated it. Could have been a few factors adding up. I'm always very wary of takeoffs bordered by trees.

Conditions were light & smooth.

The steady pull down of the leading edge makes it clear to me that he reached up and pulled on his risers to get in the seat. It is a steady and consistent pull. Not an atmospheric induced collapse. Glad he's okay.

Hard to tell from the video but could have been him letting up on the brakes to get into the seat + turbulence/rotor

Same thing happened to me two weeks ago except I was 250ft above. The wing popped out and started flying after a 200ft drop. In the video, the wind looks light, but I would guess it was blowing cross from the right out there. Mechanical turbulence/rotor coming off the knob to the right would cause a collapse like that.
