Paragliding cable towing fail in Iceland

Started badly, towed close to the ground so i needed to run as fast as i could so i wouldn’t trip down and get draged. I start to get some altitude but at 20-25m hight the cable brakes and i nearly hit the ground at high speed. When on the ground we realized as soon as they started dragging the wind changed and started blowing on my back, the reason for my failure at the begining. Lessons learned where be more awake for wind changes and don’t pull with to much tention the first 50m.
