Definitely one of my favorite paraglider pilots. The love and pure joy of this amazing sport you have is contagious. I hope I get into the air in the next few years. I'll probably need a little help from vittorazi because of where I live. Can't wait to see the next video stay safe and stay elevated 🌄🙏
In Britain landing on an arbitrary field may not be a concern, but this really depends on the country you are flying in. In Morocco for example, landing on a field near a village resulted in dozens of locals (mostly children and teenagers) gathering around your wing, shouting something in French, trying to grab your wing and showing gestures like 'you stomped our precious grass, now pay for that". So one should carefully choose a country for first XC experience, heh.
Lines of trees, hills, towns, edges of lakes, cloud shadows, motorways. Anything that will act to stop warm air from being in contact with the ground and give it the first kick upwards.
@@nonobebert7646 Usually the air that has been warmed by being near the ground is pushed along by the wind. Thermal triggers disrupt the airflow by blocking the flow or adding some turbulence. Once the warm air starts to separate from the ground it has bouyancy that will cause it to rise and take all the following warm air with it. This then forms the thermal column of rising air.
