I see flying but I dont see recalling... are you calling him to each other or making him lose balance to fly?

My wife was doing the calling. Her call can't be heard in the vid. We just started this training not long ago. Cocoa doesn't respond immediately most of the time. And also that was the 1st time she was flying there. My grey is nervous at new places.

In the second vid, I was about to throw her because I thought she wasn't responding to my wife's call.
As I was lowering my hand, she took off. So far her success rate was 80%.

I did a few short distance recalls at our regular hiking place this morning.



You don't hear me doing the call because the camera missed that out. The video starts a few secs after I press the button.
