So much to the people who say:"if you fly actively you don't get collapses". The reactions shown in this video were in my opinion perfect, but the wing still decided to suicide bomb.
I am not sure if it was preventable and whether holding the raiser played any role, but man, are those reactions absolutely perfect. Well done, outstanding job!
I really do feel like holding risers is not at all a good idea to prevent collapses, you can't feel the wing, acording to the sound, the colapse happen ~1sec after wing started to deflate, you could've use a strong brake input to prevent it... But now that the collapse happened very good job to recover!
Gia' stavo per dire: Ma allora e' un vizio! 😆 Comunque...quello, in particolare, e' un posto dove succede spesso (col ca... mi ci vedrai mai con un "D"!) Well done! 😉
As I tell in the description, I m not "holding" the riser, if you look closely I m always feeling the wing, in fact I act on brakes right before the collapse happend. I wouldn't be able to catch it if my hands were not ready. My hand is around the riserer is not holding it. I constantly feel the wing. Unfortunately.some collapse are hardly avoidable.
Beginner here. It's hard for me to find out what the reason was for the collapse due to the camera angle as the collapse happens. Can anyone explain me pls? And if there was anything to do to prevent the collapse in advance? And thank for sharing.
Great save, I was told with a frontal keep arms up then catch the surge, but how you train for that I have no idea, I know I will brake input initially...
looks like that was perfectly dealt with, did you stay on course or did it spin you 90degree? can't quire tell if it was just the camera angle makes you look like you rotated towards the collapsed side.
I was thermalling in a really mellow thermal, may be 1.5 m/s. After the frontal collapse no rotation at all, just a sudden and quick surge perfectly simmetric.
Steering while holding your risers is like driving a car while holding your door. You don't feel anything anymore! It's worthy of a student under an En-A. Sad to see. I hope you learned something and it will save your life
I'm not "holding" risers 🙂even if it looks like. I have my hands near them because sometimes especially while thermalling I use B control for the outer side. In this case I was in complete controll otherwise I could not stop the sudden surge after a frontal while thermalling. If you look carefully as the wing collapse I look at wing right away and my left hand is just ready on brakes. It all happends in a fraction of seconds. Thanks for your feedback anyway
? @alem5098 I have watched several of your videos. And there are others where you get screwed in exactly the same way. This short brake immediately released on turbulence only amplifies the collapse. It prevents the reflex effect and does not change the incidence. Either you counter your brakes (strongly!) or the B, or you avoid this little unnecessary braking. How many SIVs have you done? How many stall?
@@doncomar Which other videos are you referring to? In this case there was no turbulence. I was in a very mellow and weak thermal. Not strong, not bad air. Probably a rotor. In this case, on a two liner, when a FRONTAL occurs, a short brake input is what you should do to reopen the wing that is not flying anymore like in this case and then manage the surge with the right timing. I do comps, have several SIVs (lev 3) (one is also on the channel, enjoy) lots of stalls, SAT e some helico :-).
