More SIV flights

I did two SIV flights today...

Doing more Collapses, and the new addition of Full Stalls.

Stalling a paraglider gives you the strangest sensations!

First, you pull down on both brakes, all the way.
When you reach the stall point, you push then down further and faster.
Then, wow, the glider collapses and falls behind you.
Next, you swing underneath the ball of pulsating snot that was your aircraft.
Then you let the brakes up a little till it is nearly flyig.
Then you release the brakes so that the glider is flying again
Finally, dampen the inevitable surge as the glider dives to go from 0-35kph

DONT use this as a how-to guide!

The main sensation is like falling over backwards in a chair as the glider falls behind you - It is NOT a pleasent feeling - the trick, is not to let go of the brakes in shock, while this unpleasent feeling is happening, otherwise, in the words of a famous instructor.. "Youre buggered"

We went up for a third flight to be part of a 'Friday afternoon air show', launching about 6pm

The video, isnt me! Shame! Its my SIV instructors PAL and GABOR
