What acrofigures will you learn to perform?

- Tail Slide (flight back). During this maneuver, the tail flies (or rather "slides") almost at full speed backwards. Tail Slide is a figure that is on the narrow line between a parachute jump and a full takeoff.

- CAT is a type of spiral in which the center of rotation is between the glider and the pilot. This means that the glider is flying forward (positive rotation) while the pilot is flying backwards (negative rotation). The deceleration is very small, approximately 4-8 m/s, depending on the type of parachute and the maneuver performed.

- Negative spiral - In a negative spiral, one arm of the glider rotates backwards (negative), while the other continues to fly forward, with the negative flying arm in the tail. In this maneuver, the glider usually flies in a sway, with the pilot swaying back and forth under the glider.

- Wingovers are a series of dynamic turns in which the pilot folds the wing. This is the basic figure of the whole acro, but at the same time a very complex maneuver. The key to success in this figure is the timely transfer of weight and application of the brakes.

- A deep spiral is the most effective way to reduce height. During a spiral, the pilot is level with the glider, the leading edge is pointing toward the ground (and even in line with the horizon), and the pilot is rotating very rapidly around the center of rotation, which is near the wing. The descent speed can exceed 20 m/s, and the pilot's rotation speed is 110 km/h, which causes significant g-forces.

- Butterfly (horseshoe). This trick is very simple and looks very beautiful in the eyes of the average viewer. In this maneuver, the glider has a horseshoe (U-shaped) shape, the wing is filled with air and has no horizontal speed.

- An asymmetric spiral is, in fact, a wing, but only in one direction. The timing of weight transfer and brake application is very similar. You don't get as high above the glider as you would with a wing over, but the glider has more power in an asymmetric spiral. It is because of the high amount of energy in a paraglider that the asymmetric spiral is used to enter acro maneuvers that require a lot of energy.

Aerobatics in paragliding

Aerobatics in paragliding is the performance of all kinds of complex maneuvers. They require a well-mastered technique and a wide range of theoretical and practical knowledge from the pilot. No matter how aerobatics seems to be a simple direction, it is necessary to take it as seriously as possible and with due understanding.

Aerobatics adds emotion and adrenaline to paragliding, which makes this sport even more exciting. This sport is gaining popularity more and more, because in addition to adrenaline and emotions, you heal your body, get hardened and plus some wonderful stories in your life collection!

Any mistake can lead to fatal consequences, and in order to avoid this, it is necessary that the pilot take a specialized course. Studying at a paragliding school allows the student to gain all possible knowledge about the movements of a paraglider, as well as all the safety measures necessary to perform paragliding flights. Only in this way will you be able to fly safely and practice any aerobatics. If you do not have a sufficient level of skills and you have not received instruction from a specialist, in no case take risks. Consult with instructors, acquire the necessary skills, find out the necessary information, and go! Against a tailwind!

How to teach aerobatics

The course is taught by qualified instructors of the school. The main source of danger in paragliding is careless or inept piloting. Therefore, this sport should be studied at a school where pilots master the technique, theory and practice gradually, without haste. These hours of training will give the pilot the confidence to master paragliding.
