Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#38: Tim Alongi - back fly more
Q: What makes flying cross-country different from acro for you, and what do you focus on learning?
Cross-country requires line choice, thermal climbing efficiency, terrain awareness, and emotional control; Tim emphasizes relaxation, hip mobility, and letting the wing respond rather than forcing aggressive maneuvers, plus continuous learning from top pilots.
#38: Tim Alongi - back fly more
Q: How did you transition from acro to cross-country and eventually Red Bull X-Alps?
The switch involved a reset in approach: learning to fly with a broader skill set, joining cross-country groups, and gradually integrating endurance, navigation, and risk management; the Red Bull opportunity came later as a real objective, leading to focused training and competition.
#38: Tim Alongi - back fly more
Q: What role did SIV and backfly play in your training strategy?
He explains that SIV is important, but the key is mastering backfly as a reliable safety and recovery tool, with emphasis on practicing stalls and backfly in unstable positions to be prepared for cravats and other adverse situations.
#38: Tim Alongi - back fly more
Q: How did you get started in paragliding and what early influences shaped your path?
Tim describes starting with ground handling at a young age, learning from his family's involvement, and gradually progressing through school, SIV, and ground-based drills before tackling more advanced maneuvers; early mentors and a strong base in diverse sports helped build his technical foundation.
#36: Joanna di Grigoli - Beyond Records
Q: How do you cope with the risks involved in flying?
I try to rationalize accidents and focus on improving my own skills and safety.
