"Turn tight then widen out". I wish I had learnt that one sooner. When you start thermal flying, you tend to be timid with that first turn "Is it a thermal, should I turn, maybe I shouldn't, hm let's compromise and do a slight turn, hmm why am I m sinking, where is the damn thermal, it was right there !!"

Turn in lift is my #1 advice for long XC flights. 😁

Hy Greg, could you just color wirh a line the ride on your videos. Color the places where the air thermik gets up! This would even be more easy for us to see and be shure to follow your thinkings and words.

Great advice! I’m finally getting better at thermalling, having flights over 2 hours and consistently getting to top of lift. Doing a SIV in about a month too, it will be my first SIV so I’m super excited about it. Thank you for all the excellent content I’ve been watching you for 3-4 years now and learning a lot, and only started flying 2.5 years ago so I was researching quite a bit before I finally took the plunge

The first reason is my biggest issue. I am at the top of the weight range for my wing, and I spent 2 years just being super frustrated that I couldn't stay up. This year I also finally got over my fear of thermals from getting my ass handed to me on an absolute boomer of a day that I should not have been flying in (I live in the high desert so thermals can be vicious here). But even though I can find the thermals and turn in them, I couldn't stay up or climb in them like everyone else. Well, turns out having an avg. sink rate of 350ft/min doesn't help at all... I'll be ordering a new wing this year that is more efficient and fits my weight better. In the meantime, I'll keep building skills on my wing because if I can get better at staying up on my current wing, it will make it that much easier on a proper fitting wing!

hi Greg , is it not better to be at the top of the wing - for speed and penetration - less collapsing also at the top of wing

Stay in lift as long as possible, and sink as little as possible. Slowing down and turning are good ways to stay in the lift longer. Flying straight and fast are good ways to get out the sink quickly.
