it looks like a Freex Flair paraglider, pulling hard and the guy keeps pulling the brakes,I had this wing and it's not for this kind of pilot, lucky he didn't get an asymmetric stall.

This school seems like a paragliding accident waiting to happen - in fact they seem to be proud of this in some twisted way based on all the 'disaster' clips they post. Glad I went elsewhere - I'm still alive!

At least the crowd waited until they saw he was alright before they started laughing
-
the crowd: "wow he almost had it" then laughter LOL

Learn launch using A anc C risers it's especially good for strong/gusty wind like this, until you release C risers you have full control over the glider during wing rise and can kill the wing at any moment you like.

dude nice job
-
don't pull so hard when moderate wind + unlucky with the gust.
Good luck
-
did this happen because the pilot experienced a gust during take off or did he make a mistake...what wasit?
-

Always happens when you're being video taped. Happens too often but happens allot. Welcome to Paragliding mate.
