A couple of weeks ago (before Europe went into lock down) we went out to fly and Gemma got to practice her new favourite manoeuvre: Top Landing!
So, in this video, Gemma talks us through the process of learning with a few top tips from her perspective. And. of course, some playfulness by Andre.

As in Europe the Corona Virus is in full flow, we just want to remind you to be responsible, and keep yourself safe and the ones around you. We are all in this together and the outcome is largely dependent on the actions of everyone collectively. We have restricted our flying for this reason and this video was shot a few weeks ago. Prepare, not panic, and we'll see you all very soon :)

Best top landing video on youtube ! Can we have some more please. How lucky you are to live by these beautiful dunes.

@AndreBandarra1 4 года назад

Cheers, really appreciate it!

@gregcatlin1062 11 месяцев назад

Brilliant, loved it😊

@idanghelber8282 4 года назад

one thing that helps when landing is not looking straight down. Eyes on the horizon is usually better use your peripheral vision.. If you are going for a side hill then looking up and behind you where you want to land works well

@MikeyFirst 4 года назад

Very Nice! Wish I had some dunes or slopes in my neighborhood to practice on.

@BTKCuk 4 года назад

Wow, this looks like such a perfect place to fly - lovely constant laminar airflow, sun and sea. It must be close to heaven. I could watch this all day.

@davidwesorick805 4 года назад

Hey Andre and Gemma, the production quality of your videos are some of the best in the PG/PPG community. Considering there are many times when your shots are taken at a long distance, the videos are steady and track the other person very well (especially since most of the footage is hand held!). Same goes for filming in a windy environment- very little wind noise to distract from the great footage. And of course, your content has always been top notch, especially all the ground handling exercises.

@AndreBandarra1 4 года назад

Thanks a lot dude, we really appreciate it as that's an aspect behind the scenes that not many people realize.

@frederickruffell7910 4 года назад

Wow Gemma, you are really advancing! Way to go!

I recently had a scary experience when i launched in strong wind about 20kph, and the glider went straight up, i found myself trying to descend for 30 minutes with full speed bar and ears and tried going out of dynamic lift but still climbing, the was no convection and clear sky at around 5:30pm. I finally managed to descent to launch altitude and started hovering right at the edge of where the ridge rotor begins which is a descending layer with little turbulence, i had seen the tandem pilots use it, there was no issue penetrating back into the ridge so i had no worries about that, but i know it goes against common practice. The local tandem pilots do it a lot here in colombia in strong wind, big ears and ride the boundary layer between laminar and rotor. So i managed a soft landing as i let go of the bigears, it felt like an emergency landing, i had no more options into the night. Would love to hear comments about this practice elsewhere. Regards.

Nice Gemma top landing

Nice one Gemma..........................

@guilhermeb7615 4 года назад

Really nice! I have a question please, how much does salt air affect the life span of the wing?

@AndreBandarra1 4 года назад

It affects it. How much I'm not sure, probably like UV light from the sun.

@SteveWrightNZ 4 года назад

Every landing is always a "transition to ground handling", never can you land and not think of the wing. Also you can start to steepen those turns near the ground now hehehe, nek minit wingovers above the landing site! :p

@robertmout7240 4 года назад

Nice one! Thank you for all the pointers Gemma. Is this Polvoeira?

@AndreBandarra1 4 года назад

yep!

@renegade1283 4 года назад

tried to find this place on Google Earth to no avail. Polvoeira appears to be a town inland. Where exactly is this take off area please?

@robertmout7240 4 года назад

Geplaatste speld In de buurt van Pataias, Portugal goo.gl/maps/8tFhfXP9RetFXtE6A

@michaeljensen8631 2 года назад

Hi Andre and Gemma, what site is this. I like the sandy launch/top landing area to start learning top landing myself😊

@AndreBandarra1 2 года назад

Hey Michael, It's Polvoeira, north of Nazare. Only drawback is that as it needs W, SW wind, those winds are usually quite strong and bring bad weather. Another good option for that is "the middle step" at Bom Sucesso

@ricklulu3572 2 года назад

Since when do you fly paragliders?

@AndreBandarra1 4 года назад

I’ve been flying since 2014

@airgaborpara3824 4 года назад

@@AndreBandarra1 It would be nice to learn some groundhandling tricks from you guys . I hope this virus madness is not too long. Portugal is on my list.

@martinschneider7074 4 года назад

Nice video, but difficult to understand for a non native speaker. Could u speak more clearly, please!?

@AndreBandarra1 4 года назад

I appreciate that Martin, we'll try to improve that in the future :)

@martinschneider7074 4 года назад

Your Englisch is easily to understand, Gemma's huhui ... Don't know, If I am able to understand everything after watching a couple of times. And my english is not that bad.
