Paragliding in Patagonia, Futalefu
The Futaleufu is a valley in Patagonia, Chile. Ron Fischer has been opening up the flying here over the passed few years with a few nice flights already. He took me up to a beautiful take off and we had a perfect flight together. First we went to the Laguna Pinilla and the into the Azul valley, crossed over into the Espolon valley and finaly back over the main valley to las tres Monjas. Mega!

Probably the line thats most intrigued me the most in the Mont Blanc Massif. Its weaves through a beautiful hanging glacier and across an improbable looking traverse to a perfect paragliding take off. A brilliant day with Ross Hewitt.

One of the classic steep ski line of Chamonix under the Aiguille du Midi cable car. We had generally pretty good conditions and it was a great adventure to ski this part of the mountain. A right of passage.
Air Design Hero 2 - Fly to Ski Combo
Переглядів 1,4 тис.8 місяців тому
Spring is my favourite time of year. The days are longer, the thermals are working and there is still snow to ski. The new AirDesign Hero 2 arrived with me just in time for the good weather and I was very excited to put this light weight D glider through its paces. The forecast didn't look the best for a long cross country flight so I figured a combo would be the best use of the day.
Ski Fly Mont Blanc

I've wanted to Ski from the summit of Mont Blanc for some time now - I guess when you live under the thing, you feel compelled to do so at least once. I've been up on foot several times and flown from the summit at least 5. Alex and I stayed in the Cosmiques hut the night before as I was keen to try and get some acclimatising done. We then used our wings to take off from the Col du Midi and lan...

AirDesign Volt 5 vs Hero 2 SIV test
Переглядів 22 тис.10 місяців тому
I was recently lent the new Volt 5 and Hero 2 by AirDesign. I thought an SIV style test comparing the two could be useful for people to see. I appreciate that not everything is tested, such as collapses under speed bar or A symmetric collapses - However I hope you find it useful in selecting your next two liner wing. ad-gliders.com/project/volt-4-speedmachine/?lang=en ad-gliders.com/project/her...

Flying a tandem paraglider around Mont Blanc, with my Dad!
Переглядів 3,1 тис.Рік тому
Flying around MontBlanc is one of the most beautiful flights you can do in Europe. The terrain you fly through is simply stunning. I've often wondered whether it would be possible for me to fly a tandem around there. It just so happened my dad was visiting me for a few days when we had pretty much perfect conditions! To fly this route with him was an amazing experience! Thanks to Alex and Rahi ...

After doing a variety of water sports for over two decades such as white water kayaking and surfing I ended up with very advanced surfers ear. My Right ear was mostly closed and my left ear was totally closed. I was getting lots of ear infections and was totally deaf in my left ear. It was time for surgery. Hearing horror stories about getting the exostoses drilled out, I did a lot of research ...
