Chris Geist – the specialist’s week!

Olympic Wings offers Flight Techniques * Thermalling * first steps to XC

with Chris Geist

from 11.05. to 18.05.2019

This technical seminar aims to fulfill and train paragliding pilots who wish to improve their overall flying abilities and technical skills performance, during all of the flight stages and by the different kinds of flight.

 

The goal is… to get a complete and comprehensive set of up-to-date practical knowledge while training your awareness so to adapt a “tactical act” and “reliable react” mechanism to your flying style.
A blend of theory and practice, useful illustrations, daily plan and dialogue, with plenty of airtime will boost your confidence just in time for the start of the flying season!

 

Every situation, from an – easy conditions and terrain – take off to the moments of big decision making while flying XC, require a clean solid technique yet adaptive to several key factors like the weather and flight conditions, your equipment, your abilities and your mindset.
We will revisit the basic aviation-in-paragliding rules while making the necessary remarks to give pilots a better understanding and a better sense of control to your flight experience.

The workshop will focus on:
  • Fine tuning to your take-off and landing technique.
  • Thermalling techniques for efficiency.
  • Techniques for active piloting, glider control and training your awareness.
  • Advice on safety.
  • Technical tipps for XC pilots and performance flying as an evolving process.
  • Useful features in modern gliders and flying equipment.
  • Mental preparation & pilot psychology.
Program:
  • Introduction and establishment of pilot levels
  • Review of pilot equipment
  • Area briefing and weather
  • Daily exercises and group flights with radio
  • Theory and Video Analysis sessions
  • Daily debrief on individual and group basis
  • Final assessment and summary
