Описание к видео 71km St André les Alpes to Montclar then emergency landing

My very first flight from Saint-André-les-Alpes!
Wind was S so the idea was to get to Montclar but I knew coming back was probably not possible. Also forecast was spot on with overdevelopments in the afternoon.
Right after the first 3000m on the Chalvet, I was then alone the whole way (no other paraglider). I only saw a few sailplanes. But conditions were great.

Before deciding to end the flight, i was ~2900m near cloudbase with 50% speedbar facing south wind and I was going up 0.5m/s, 1m/s, 1.5m/s... 🚨Too easy and less and less blue... Several congestus were popping up, one was raining near St André, it was definitely time to get down.

Amazing flight for me. I also learned a lot with that emergency landing experience during overdevelopment.
