The response to the previous video has been immense, thank you everyone for the suggestions and support! On this video I thought I'd show you where we are so far with the game.

First I explain the concepts of horizontal and vertical speed on a glider and glide ration and why it has it's limitations as a method to cover large distances.

Then with thermals we introduce the concept of the thermal+glide cycle and how this helps us to cover very large distances.

Finally we put these theories to the test using the game as a simulation and it worked fairly well.

Let us know your thoughts on the latest version and hope to have another update soon!

So that's it, my 30 day Youtube Challenge is over.
What a month it has been!

I'm not going to lie, it has been very very hard, but so worth it.
I've learned thinks that I didn't before and did things that I couldn't have imagined.

Thank you all for your support and encouragement and I can't wait to see what the future holds.

Cheers

We had some extra footage from the stalls video that would have made it way too long. But we liked it so much that we decided to do another video with it.

I think it really captures well what freeflight is all about, being at one with nature, minimal kit, and surfing the air waves up and down with the birds. Just amazing.

Also, did I mention that the Lynx gliders for ever?! :D

So, we clip in to our wings so that we can fly in a comfortable position and look where we are going. But when groundhandling we mostly want to look at the wing and see what's going on.

If you're facing forward tooking up and behind you is too hard, and if you're facing backwards the risers are crossed and right in your face. What about clipping in backwards just for groundhandling?

Well we tried it, and it's surprisingly nice.

We've moved to Portugal over a year ago and even though we've been to this beach dozens of times Gemma has never been able to fly it as it's very technical and small, especially with traffic.

So it was great to see that on this day, without warning and with perfect conditions she just tried it one again and it worked! She managed to work the lift in such a way to stay up for a long time!

Book into the Groundhandling retreat here :)
https://www.groundhandlingchallenge.com/retreat

In this video Gemma set out to try do some exercises using height efficiently and in the end it turned out to be a stubborn fight to stay up.

The best lift isn't always really close to the hill, but at the beach, in marginal conditions, very often it is!

However staying as close to the terrain as possible to eke out every meter you can get has it's drawbacks. If you misjudge your path or get sink where you don't expect it the consequences can be very serious.

Hope you enjoy it and learn something. We do, every flight.

The wind was just perfect to launch and land, so Gemma finally worked up the courage to break her flying lull and get in some take off and landing practice.
The takeoff was a bit busy at times but it worked great to get her confidence back and getting to enjoy being up there.

Join our Groundhandling Retreats
https://www.andrebandarra.com/retreats

The wind was light so we decided to do some take-off training by groundhandling right there!
It can be quite scary at first to be on the edge of a hill with quite a bit of wind but it's also really worthwhile to sharpen your skills and make future take-offs a breeze.

Last night on Great British Bake Off (a popular TV program) they made Pasteis de Nata, a traditional Portuguese custard tart.

One of Gemma's friends challenged me to do it and I too her on... oh boy... a bit harder than I expected.

Was a bit late to start with, then was missing the tins to cook them in. It was a mess and really difficult to shoot and bake at the same time!

Big thanks to everyone at SkySchool for teaching us how to fly Paramotors
https://www.skyschooluk.com/

We fast-forwarded through normal groundhandling and spent some time groundhandling with the motor on our backs.

First with the motor turned off and after we got good enough and did some power runs without the wing (to get used to the throttle) we put it all together with some taxiing.
