About their work
Jocky Sanderson publishes manoeuvre demonstrations, wing-control explanations and flight-safety topics. His video archive also covers landings, thermalling and cross-country decisions. The public videos complement his commercial SIV courses, coaching and tandem flights.
As we pilots have little time in our busy lives, the Blue world team and I, are making a new collection of "Bite Size", 3-minute educational clips, designed to give pilots the "need-to-know" of important moves or topics to help improve your paragliding skills.
The first is "360 & spiral", understanding the difference between the two, and a simple explanation into how to get in and out, while also what to look out for. We hope you enjoy them and it makes you want to come and try them with us or any profession flight safety provider.
This manoeuvre is a great one to learn for pilots wishing to master the control and re-set of their gliders straight back with stable span, without the glider horseshoeing and pilot twisting. But be careful, if you are delayed in the 2nd stage the glider can shoot so you must brake that dive.
Just a short film using some of the footage we shot during this SIV season. Introducing 2-stage stalls, wingover tuck control and reserve deployment tips. We will be making more short films addressing paraglider control over winter so please stay tuned.
Welcome to the first Ozone Colombian open! We had 120 pilots competing in perfect weather amid blues skies above lush green forests. Together we celebrate a record of 35 women competing at an open event. We will be back!
