How to take off from a beach

I spent the afternoon at Meon Shore, trying to paraglide the cliff. The idea is that the cliff is so short, that if you run down the beach with a paraglider over your head, the lift will pick you up and you will end up soaring the cliff. My friends got it right, but I didn't.
Warning:
There is a lot of bleeping and some paragliding crash footage.
If you have any tips, feel free to share them. Let's learn as a community.

thank you for filming this and putting it up. One of the most real paragliding flights to be seen. Glad you are ok so we can laugh at that sky jockey dropping in to coach you how to get caught up in a rotor! yep just fly over that cliff he's sure it will be fine. lolololol

Yeah...meon shore and I aren't on good terms. I'll fly it again at some point... But if that point doesn't come soon... I'll not lose to much sleep

When you finally got up I was leaning to the right trying to will you into the lift. 😂

I very much dislike Meon Shore for this, and many other reasons - 😂

Come back to meon shore one day. I'm 5 mins down the road and probably have more hours on site than most. It's easy once you know how

@@jacquecilliers hahaha. My rule is "never take tips from someone not flying 🤣. The guy that showed me the first time done exactly what you did straight after launch. Luckily I didnt.

@@jacquecilliers You were very lucky to not get slammed by rotor when you went over the top. Not sure why you were hesitant to turn into wind then when you had the opposite problem trying to take off.

Yes I know about the rotor. It happened very quickly. I was fighting to get the lift on the right and then got sucked over the top

@@jacquecilliers I think before you get to cliff top height you should be pushing out directly into wind and probably on bar.

Thanks. It was very quick over the top. I'll try this next time

(google english) Oh man, it's hard to watch. 😄 First you always fly to the sea instead to the slope, and then you don't steer. 😉 As a pilot, there is no such thing as "the wind did it" or "the paraglider did it", the pilot steers!😁As long as you have a positive ground speed you steer in the desired direction. You do not give up. On slopes, the air moves more vertically, higher up then horizontally. Here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cZFlGR4KbNU.html you can see the exact moment how THE WING/Canopy comes into the more horizontal air mass. RIGHT there you have to start steering left so that your BODY then stays right over the cliff (and not behind.) Then you fly there... Good flights and happy landings!
