Wow, paragliding for me has been put on hold for a little bit. Got something even better.

Nice shoe cam. Speedwings are still paragliders in my book. I go 12, 14, 15, 18, 22, 24.

Haaaa Jon,

Looks like your killing it over there, the vertical drop must be pretty steep to allow that much hang time on a speed glider. I think I'll stick to over the snow. I won't be surprised if the next video is you in a squirrel suit.

Steve,

Come on over to the Alps, take away the wind, and get close to the terrain. You will rewrite your book.

Brad,

Hmmm, need about a hundred more sky dives before I strap on the flying wingsuit from hell. See ya in three weeks!

Hey Gordon,

Here is a very short front view of the approach to the LZ. Give you a better feeling of the speed and how close the terrain is!
