There is a first time for everything I guess?! Whats a top landing?

in paragliding •  7 years ago 

There are a few things that I have been working on in my adventure of #paragliding...

This is one that I couldn't seem to nail down. Well, finally completed my first one.
Its called a "Top Landing, and thats exactly what it is. Just coming in for a landing where you launched from or some other place that is not considered the landing zone I guess.
Its dangerous because you could end up in the area called "Rotor" of the hill, also known as the "lee" side of the mountain. This area is the side that doesn't have wind coming up the face.

Anyway, enough of the talk. Enjoy this adventure!

Whay hay! Top landing :) It looked 'textbook' too, smooth and focused. Difficult to tell how smooth on the 2nd lol I bet you're well stoked about those flights, well done Robert :) (see, I said I'd copy/paste it lol)
