Tips & Tricks For PARAGLIDING CONTROL When Landing In STRONGER WIND. How to land safely and kill your paraglider without getting dragged around? Let's find out in this video! A strong wind can be dangerous for paragliding if you don't have the right ground handling skills to control your paraglider.
ARE OPTIONS A & B THE ONLY POSSIBLE CHOICES OR ARE THERE MORE? π
These two methods, "the power zone" and "edge of the wind window", are pretty straightforward and good to know. Of course, there are plenty more options that we will share in future videos. Which method is the best? Well, there is probably no right or wrong answer to that! It is important to take into consideration the pilot's skills, the terrain, the wing used and the actual wind conditions. So, we could say that each pilot has their own method that works best for them. β 1 minute paragliding trick to gain skills and confidence: youtu.be/LXXsgqTZMOY π₯
Strong wind is subjective, with no universally defined threshold. It hinges on individual pilot skills, the specific paragliding wing used and the terrain. If a full-sized paragliding wing is used, strong wind may commence at approximately 30 km/h or higher. Nonetheless, even this speed can prove excessive for those lacking the requisite skills to control the wing under such conditions. β Conversely, adept pilots may find it entirely manageable and view it as the threshold where real fun begins π₯Choosing smaller and dedicated wings can elevate the point at which strong wind is perceived!
It is very important to spend a lot of time ground handling your paraglider, as only that can give you the right skills and confidence for safe paragliding takeoffs, flights and landings!

![FUTURE OF PARAGLIDING?? πͺ Ozone Photon EN C 2-Liner 1st Review & Comparison Artik R Bonanza 3 Volt 4
First impressions review of Ozones new EN C 2-liner, the Photon. In todays video, Flybubble Carlo shares his thoughts after test-flying the Ozone Photon, and comparing it to the other EN C 2-liners hes tested so far, the AirDesign Volt 4, Gin Bonanza 3 and Niviuk Artik R. Are 2-liners the future of paragliding in all classes?!
The reason Carlo test flew the Photon ML and Artik R 25 with his Lightness 3, and the Bonanza 3 M with his Impress 4 is because of the differences in the weight ranges between these wings. The Photon ML and Artik R 25 have a max load of 105 kg, whereas the Bonanza 3 M has max load of 110 kg, so he needed to fly with a heavier harness. As hes very used to changing gear for testing, and knows these harnesses very well, Carlo is able to filter out the differences in feeling these different harnesses make. So far hes also flown the Artik R 25 with the Supair Delight 4 and Niviuk Arrow. More reviews to follow.
Ozone: The Photon brings near-competition class performance to experienced sport class pilots. All of Ozoneβs 2-liner know-how has gone into designing this wing. A long development period with extensive prototyping and hundreds of hours of flying and safety testing has gone into this project, and we are very satisfied with the Photons True Performance in real XC conditions. The Photon represents the missing link between conventional 3-liners and high-performance wings such as the Zeno2 and Enzo3.
Certified EN C and available in six sizes, it [the Photon] is suitable for experienced pilots who have prior time flying EN C category wings and possess a high level of glider control skills with recent SIV experience.
