Thank you.

Never give up! Thank you sir!

Tomáš Podmaník I get excited watching awesome vids of stuff like this! Gliding is my life! We’re pretty lucky where we live, there at so many fly sites, and five years ago we got the opportunity to buy a flying school, and that’s what some may call a job, but I get to spend every day teaching others the skills they need to leave with to fulfil their dreams, so I don’t work, I get to play every day, do tandems, spend time with my family and and meet amazing and Inspiring people every course, and hear all different back grounds and peoples stories and motivations, it’s pretty amazing, and we took that school which was ran into the ground and build it back up to a reputable school that is well respected over here 🙏🏼 Once again, great video, and even better save my friend 👍🏻

@@patrickswayze2596 I like that you live your life as you want, thumbs up for you because in this world is not many peoples doing it as you.

Tomáš Podmaník what country is this filmed in? And is it your local flying site, or one of them?

Tomáš Podmaník I broke my neck in two places in 2011, I was lucky to survive and even luckier to be walking, but I used to skydive, BASE jump, I used to do tandems and filming for other tandems, I was lucky enough to make a bit of money from my passion and love of flight, I attempted to hang glide but I have such limited range of movement in my neck and head, so many blind spots left me in a high risk situation every time I flew, and as soon as I discovered paragliding, it felt like the first time in so many years I found that peace and freedom back in my life, no engines sound (I also have recreational pilots licence and hope one day to keep training and learning to potentially do commercial? But I can walk to a mountain or any launch site with one bag carrying an aircraft, all my safety gear, computers and tech gadgets (vario, GoPro, solar charging port for my phone for long flights to track them and go back and reflect on them, flyskyhy is a great app, even with all the add ons which I have most of, I don’t think I’ve spent anymore then $200 for several thousand dollars with of equipment which is extremely accurate and easy to use not needing to fill my cockpit with all my equipment and chords everywhere haha) and then gear up, build a wall and off I go. I closed my old skydiving and BASE jumping account, so many trolls and negative people who have a lot of opinions yet have no experience and treat us like reckless idiots when both skydiving and paragliding are relatively safe sports and I’ve never had a moment when I panicked or was scared I wasn’t going to see my family again, my my 4 and 11 year olds live coming out flying with me. I’m trying to find a good cheaper second hand tandem wing so I can take them both at the same time as I use a BGD duo tandem lite, which I’ve used for all three of us, but it’s extremely responsive with three people all on spreaders there has been a few moments of YAW coming out of a turn etc.. Enough rambling, keep up the good work and blue skies my brother ✌️

Thank you

Thanks!

Right!

There a coastal flight I love to do, and often trying to cross the headlands without enough altitude causes you to bomb out on the beach. Most people scale a goat track and relaunch from the cliff tops but I’ve found a way when there’s low winds to run back towards the actual cliff where most relaunch from (20 plus minute walk back up) and you start to get lift and with a few minute of scratching I’m already back up before everyone else has even made it up to the launch site! Do you glide or fly? This trek is awesome! It’s along the great ocean road down in Victoria (You fly past and over Bells Beach to give you an idea), but it’s a roughly three hour round trip which is epic, but sometimes you really gotta scratch among those cliffs and really work hard a pay attention or down you go and there’s not a lot of sites you can. Relaunch from, so it could mean trying to hitch up rife back north or walk for hours to relaunch which can really suck haha Never give up! Even when you’re almost done for, you babe give up, especially when a little bit of effort can (as seen here) keep your flight alive.. Well done sir, we’ll done 👌

Thanks, I was lucky.

Thanks

Netreba to vzdávať až po zem!

Thank you.

Sure, I am using "survive" mode for saves and after that I am switching back to race mode. It is not true that the direction does not change during thermalling. It is all about practice and training.

@@PTom08 I'm in survival mode all the time 😅. Thank you for your prompt reply!

I see it, then I know that there is really good thermal and I need to drift there.

Really? I thought a dust devil is dangerous and should be avoided. Isn't it turbulent air instead of a thermal. Thermal = updrifting air. Dust devil = turbulent air in different directions?

Dust devil is dangerous but it is caused also by the thermal = very turbulent thermal

It was micro colapse on this video.

@@PTom08 I am fully aware of that and SIV training. Still, It's a scary thing when you're too low to throw.

SIV is good for training.

našťastie to stihol ešte pred tým než zastavil

Audio of vario was on video badly heard, it is why I add there this music.

I would have preferred it, if you had put the effort into adding some comments in English as subtitles instead and refrained from "this music" ;-)

Maybe, I haven't measured it exactly, 30m only GPS record showed. Baro record shows exact 0m above ground. :)
