I consider Video 3 to be the most important in the series. Primarily
because it covers foundations that will help every aspect of flying from
launch to landing. These foundations will help pilots master the inches,
whether trying to fly a line in the beach or simply have finesse in
their rollouts. How to best handle turbulence, and how to make anything
simply look better.
This is a log of Master Powered Paragliding's production progress, an
undertaking of larger proportions than the book, involving dozens of
pilots, dozens of sites, hundreds of hours spent on animations and much
more. It is the culmination of a passion to share the intricate bits
that have been learned by our sports best pilots. By embracing very high
production values and animation, it is intended to provide a crystal
clear expose on the finer points of making the paraglider do incredible
things both with and without power.

Finally I'm on the timeline. Starting this was waylaid by the need to
finish another project that should be appearing by Summer 2011. I'm
going to make this slightly more entertaining since, in the realm of
cool flying, I've got a LOT of footage. It will still have in depth
training information and animation but I want to include at least some
of what's possible. I finished the intro and love it. High energy, cool
flying, interesting angles, just plain fun. Mind you, I only spend 30
seconds on this so I'm not wasting your time, but I will add quite a
bit.
In this beginning section I've got an awesome animation describing
ground track and the effect that wind has. That sounds simple but the
effect isn't always obvious. It will be after seeing this animation.
Today, sitting here in Boston on an overnight for work, I've got the
first 2 minutes completed. That doesn't sound like a lot but it's just
nice to be "on the timeline" and gitten 'er done. |
It's finally starting to come together. This is the first 2:34 but there
are a number of animations that have been completed including a 47
second piece to clarify the effect of wind on ground track during
precision maneuvering.
