Bruce
Goldsmith's new DVD is set to become the new benchmark in
SIV instruction. In 1992, the Airwave designer's first film
'Instability' helped thousands of pilots gain insight into
tips and tricks learnt by the professional test pilots. As
paragliders have developed, so have the techniques required
to fly them safely through turbulence and during radical
manoeuvres. Instability 2 is an essential update for all
pilots wanting to fly at their safest. This DVD and its
accompanying booklet will guide you step-by-step through
some of the most critical lessons you'll ever need as a
paraglider pilot. Instability 2 is not a do-it-yourself
instructional guide. To learn any of the manoeuvres outlined
on this DVD, you should be under instruction from an
experienced SIV instructor in appropriate conditions.
Running time: 38 minutes. DVD all regions. Shot on location
in the maritime Alps, south of France. £22.95 p&p

For beginners and improvers -
Ground handling is one of the most important skills you need
to learn. Good ground handling skills make the difference
between getting off the ground or watching everyone else
fly. This is true for paraglider, as well as powered
paraglider pilots. Powered paraglider pilots - If you can't
control your paraglider on the ground while practicing,
there's no way you're going to be able to launch once you
put a 50-80 pound, running motor on your back.
Learn techniques and tips for easy ground handling with this
instructional program. Get in tune with your glider. Improve
your flying skills while on the ground.
Light, moderate, and high wind conditions covered with the
succesful and proven industry-standard techniques of Dixon
White, Master pilot, USHGA Examiner, and Paragliding
Instructor of the Year. This is for the beginner,
Intermediate, and advanced pilot wanting to brush up. £29.99 p&p £2.59
