I'm Paragliding Again (inc. 'Brown Pants' moment ;) - 'Re-Source' - Eggstatic #172

in #paragliding6 years ago

Hello All,

@eggstatic will become a chronological 're-source' for all my documented (video or otherwise) achievements in the last 10 years or so of my hobby/lifestyle activities, primarily but not exclusively related to my paragliding and/or paramotoring exploits.

Everything I post within this steemit realm will be my own original content, some of it may require the dust blowing off it ;)

My original Wordpress blog has a lot more information regarding the experimental paramotor side of things on offer for those of you with an inquisitive or inventive streak: https://eggmotor.wordpress.com/


Description taken from my YouTube channel:

Here is Sam and I back up to our old tricks. I've not flown for several years and so 'clever-dick' here decided to pick quite a thermic day for his foray off the hill top.

You may notice that within a few seconds of the 2nd flight there is a partial front collapse. I felt the 'tug' and I defo heard it snap back so I decided to head for the LZ (scaredy cat in panic mode :).

The first flight was a little lumpy in places but this 2nd one did feel more dynamic with the harness bucking me about on several occasions.

Still, it was a couple of flights and I'm very pleased. It's just a bugger packing and walking back up for the 2nd flight. I was determined after going all the way to Pule, Marsden that I was going to have more than one flight.


Thank you for stopping by and helping me to relive my finest moments.
