Let go of the fuckin' rope

[timmay301]

i guess the idea here was to kill the person in the middle?

@phasetek This was not "too windy" of a day- the person just should NOT have let the tether go- end of story. The one out of every 100 students we see who actually becomes a real student of hang gliding- we move to the uprights on their 2nd or 3rd lesson. When you have somebody on uprights on their first lesson (with no ground running), they often nose in and then break their arms or pull muscles. Teaching from the basetube allows them to swing cleanly through the control frame unharmed.

@phasetek Actually- the reason they teach people from the basetube on the first lesson is because we see so many students that we don't have time for ground running and they end up flying an hour after the lesson starts. Its a different style BECAUSE of the dunes we teach on and the wind.

I worked here for awhile, every now and then somebody messes up- its life and it happens. She was fine- they both needed to either hold on or let go, end of story.

this mthrfkrs assassins!! this is not the first video of this guys where they MAKE ppl crash!!

[phasetek]

This is not really a "student", this is more of a "let your kid experience hang gliding" that this school offers, the pilot (child) was not making any effort to control the glider, and they should not be in a prone position at this point on a training hill, they should be flying upright from the downtubes(if they were actually learning). The "instructors" are suposed to hold the tethers for the entire "flight". Yes both of them made mistakes, ^#&* happens, everyone is ok

too windy for flying even on tethers; lost grip aaargh.

[dittocopys]

look ma! i can fly!

[jagara1]

The whole thing is completely stupid - yes the guy on the right made a huge mistake - however there was way too much wind in the first place!

Soarable conditions and a student pilot who requires instructors to stablize the kite with guidelines... Something is off here.

Its' the knob-head on the left's fault.
