Thanks for tuning in. This is a great one for your long term safety. Work with a friend or instructor in a kind and friendly environment to figure this out. Seek out that nice grass, that sand dune or in our case, a rug so that you don't get roughed up. Wear full length pants and shirt, all the pads you have and good gloves. Use a small glider and choose a nice breeze.
It's a fact that the first time a new thing happens you don't realize what's happening and you don't respond well. On the second time you are more aware but don't respond well. On the third time you are aware and you respond well.
This means that you can get better at managing kiting or launching gone wrong and/or stall and spin recovery by doing a handful of these cycles. Naturally the odds get way better the more you do it and the more you practice.
Be less monkey and more bird. You'll notice that I mis-speak about this in the video at one point.

My single surface AD wing makes me look like a rock star when ground handling.😀

Great stuff Chris. A similar trick I use for students that struggle with reverse kiting, is have them lay on their back, facing the glider, with risers crossed. (the normal reverse kiting position, just laying down) Somehow, it magically makes reverse kiting "click." They can kite with brakes, or "primate" as you say, then just transition to standing up. Part of it may be that when brakes are used, the ground limits the amount of brake they can apply, minimizing over control, plus they don't need to use their feet at all. Maybe it's just that the relaxing and safe-feeling position of lying down, frees the mind to just kite the wing. Then I do the same thing you do, just grab their harness and assist them up to standing position while they're kiting. Of course, once they transition to standing, you have to get them to stop looking up at the wing ;-)

Lovely! Also like having one hand on a break and the other doing the raw break line primate style to make your brain figure it out. 💪🏻

Reminds me of thirty years ago you doing this stuff for fun. Remember the deep powder day on the S Side where you were stalling into the snow on your back? That was the origin ;)

next step would be to learn spins and stalls at an siv, so that when the monkey makes you spin/stall you know how to recognize and exit it

totally - thing is that people are more at risk of inadvertent spin and stall before they do SIV - will do another video on how to avoid manifesting initial stall and spin - it will be titled something like ---> "like you touched a hot stove" etc.

Thanks for the message. This makes more sense when you have been around a while. It also really helps for the instructor to set you up with some perspective on how much postures matter and what the primary causes of accidents are. Holler if we can help.

Love this! Full face helmet helps control my monkey response. Even use Mt Bike armor for big kiting for not overreacting to drags. “Monkey” is what the Kestrels at SS are always calling me!

You can’t imagine how sweet the conditions are here and the single surface gliders are a dream. Plus this guy is a champion.
