This can occur with longer flight variants such as thermal or ultimate flights. The movements in the thermally active air correspond to the movements of a boat on the water.
Our experience: Anyone who sits in the back of the car when cornering or has good experience from a boat trip will also be able to enjoy a sportier flight.
If in doubt, we have travel dragees that have proven themselves very well in normal aviation and also for us.
You should have flown before an Ultimo flight.
