FLY CAMPING :: IDAHO DUNES
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 вер 2024
- Fresh off the heels of Montana, I turn south to visit my old college stompin grounds in Rexburg, Idaho. I used to spend many weekends hanging out at the sand dunes and now I return for some new nostalgic fun.
Your vids are the ones i look forward to the most!Best made,cleanest shots and fun story lines!
Thanks, hope to keep doing them.
I think I may have found the most underrated channel on UA-cam. Yeah it won't be long before you smash 10k subs... Then 100k soon after... Then a million.
You heard it here first!
Maybe one day! I confess it's a lot of work for 2K views on some edits and that's a bit discouraging.... I must not be hitting the right markets. It'd be nice if your prediction comes true. Thank you.
You still make the most awesome, visually attractive, and audio prefect - fly videos! Love when a Ryan Southwell video pops up in my notification bar.
Just loving every one of your videos, so well made and full of your character!
Thanks
Just discovered your channel -- without a doubt some of the best paramotoring videos on YT. Seems only a matter of time before your channel blows up, I'm sending it to several friends right now...
I want to see more of your monument valley adventures!
I think everyone who see’s them, loves your videos but there just isn’t enough of them!
I look forward to more fresh adventures skilfully shot and edited and narrated by you :)
Beautiful Ryan...love your work
Just keep on good content, and it will blow much higher than 10k :) Again, great adventure!!!
Heckin' sweet buddy. Beautiful scenery, spectacular footage as always! Keep it up, Ryan.
Excellent video. Gonna add this sand to my bucket list.
This video is amazing ! Usually it’s hard to make a video that really gets close to capturing the way flying on a paramotor “feels” - but when I watch these videos I feel like I’m actually flying over the dunes with you guys ;). Thank you for the GREAT videos 🙌🏽. #inspired
Nobody can crank out vids like tuck but yours are the most exciting to see the notifications for new stuff. Salton sea is endlessly rewatchable based on soundtrack alone🤙 I have no idea why your not blowing up dude but thanks for doing what you do
Wow, thanks!
Excellent as always, Ryan! Hope I get to fly with you one day.
Your videos are the best.
Thanks Ryan, your videos are amazing!
Glad you like them!
Hey I'm glad I found your channel. I predict this channel will blow up in 2021. 1,000,000 subs no problem!
Epic on so many levels! The flying, the landscape, the production quality! Amazing work!!
I know for a fact that the UA-cam algorithm prefers long format content, check the big youtube channels, 99% of their videos are at least 10 minutes which seems to be the sweet spot. That might just be your missing ingredient to get to 10k and beyond! Love the content BTW
Man, I haven't seen any of your videos before. I already liked and subbed before the intro was over. Didn't take long to know I'd enjoy it
Thank you for making such great quality content for a sport we love so much!
Forget 10k! Let's go to a million! You got this! 💯
If only I could retire and just make Paramotor videos and live off UA-cam income. Ha. It'll never happen but at least when I'm 85 and finally hang up my wings I'll have quite the playbook to show off to my great grandkids. :)
This is spectacular, how do you not have more subs?? +1 here! Thanks for sharing
Just helping out. But Awesome video!
I missed the subscription dance this time. (sad face-just kidding) ;-)
Your videos are juicy morsels of awesomeness, and I don't understand why you don't have 250K or more subscribers out of production quality alone... But I definitely think the subscription dance has got to help.
More ideas (you asked for it-so, here's my brainstorm):
Mission-oriented shenanigans... maybe find strange and cool things (or actions) to shoot on location-scavenger hunt style, or fancy feats of skill and creativity.
Educational hour... include some interesting info (if there is any) about the areas you explore, or tips on how to be awesome paramotor guy or awesome photographer-nobody can beat your videography/photography-your vids are liquid goooold.
Feminine infusion... does wife fly? any lovely female flying friends? Honestly, I think Alayna and Jaclyn adventures salt and pepper Mark and Tucker's videos with some refreshing feminine energy-and I think that could help with some subscriptions.
Eagles... more eagles.
"Eagles... more eagles." I'm thinking more Deane with eagles.
Keep telling a story and they have to come. I wish I had the answer to the question but obviously I do not. I sure do enjoy your videos though!
If I were trying to blow up the subscriber count, I definitely would have highlighted Brad’s huge sunglasses. It’s a thing.
This man knows what he’s talking about

Keep making videos. They're great
That's the plan!
Looks like fun :) Gawd I miss flying :|
Lots of people dream of an iceland adventure trip but its tough, you should look at create some dunes adventure trips a couple times a year and bring in pilots to make it an adventure. Film fly, fly it, share it and bring in some of the big names, it'd grow fast then man. People want more of these adventures and iceland just isn't an option for many.
Mike, you are totally right. Very good ideas.
Awesome stuff, great storytelling!
How the hell do you get such good looking footage from a gopro??
Good question! Haha, but not all of it is a GoPro. But the shots that are, I'm quite satisfied with. Great little cam.
Fly to McDonalds. lol Seriously though...much talent here for cinematography. Keep it up.
Thanks for the great video i really enjoyed it. I am hoping to do fly camping myself soon 🪂. Q Do you think its a good idea to ground start a motor?
Generally no, however with a Scout you can take few precautions. The Safe Start feature is amazing and I test it frequently. It gives me so much peace of mine when out in the woods when starting up without my rack. I always check throttle for sticking, turn on the Safe Start and have my finger on the kill trigger. In this one, I just have to assume that Brad knows his motor well and took the most safety precautions he could under the circumstances. But yes, safety shouldn't be gambled with. I'll try and push for a better example in future episodes. Thanks for the comment.
I have heard that if you use Facebook, Instagram, and youtube all together as advertising is how you can get more results. Not sure but good luck-/ awesome videos!!
Your work is amazing! No idea about how to get more subs, but here's a comment to hopefully help.
Much appreciated!
I prefer QUALITY over quantity. From where I'm sitting you are hitting it out of the park! Not sure how to improve on that? Keep up the GREAT videos! Hopefully, people will wake up!
Thanks! Will do!
No clue on how to get more subscribers cause I'm sitting at 45 hahaha.
But hey here's a comment 👌
Probably just share it on all kinds of social media platforms
For the subscriptions, I thinks we should all share your UA-cam channel on different social media sites and tell our friends about you
Whats the trick on flying the dunes. Im scared of getting rotor.lol
If wind is over 6mph you'll start to feel it. One day it switched and got us at almost 30mph so that was scary, but most of the time is smooth on a low wind morning.
More Brad Scott!
You can say that again.
Show more Brad Scott! Awesome pilot!
Again great stuff Ryan!
I would suggest more clickbait titles which work well in search results and as is happening now, regular new vids, UA-cam is rough on sparse posters... sadly it doesn’t look at quality, since you’d be having millions of followers if that would be the criteria. Keep it up, love your content 👌🏻
Totally true. It's a struggle of mine though that clickbait is the name of the game. I feel like it's selling your should to the devil. Cause in reality I'd rather have good content and care about the art more than subscribers. It's just a lot of work for the ratio of viewers at the moment.
Ryan Southwell, I know your pain. I suck at video and stay put at pictures just because video is so time consuming to do well.
At least know you inspire me to do some fly camping... 💪🏻
Man I want to join you hey just saying
#helloformdownunder
Hello from up top.
Man I would love to catch up and go flying in the dunes and this hole COVID is over and we can travel
Want 10K, have to talk to Tucker Gott.
😉
Ask people to share your videos, sometimes people don't share, unless they know it's okay from you.
This definitely deserves 100x the views! Suggestion: open a storytelling loop in your title, rather than just a statement of what and where.
Ex. What’s it like to foot-drag a dune? 🪂
OR
Will we get stranded in the desert? 🌵
I love your videos! The camera work is great cinematic and stable. I always make my family watch with the projector on a big screen. Other paramotoring videos just about make them seasick when I do that. :) Anyway inspiring as always and I always send a link to my friends when they come out to try and convince at least one of them to get into it so I would have a wingman.
Also, I never said it before but I loved the little waltz you composed that you shared on one of your Iceland videos. That is the video that I send to people when they say "para-what?" I am into paramotors and music too. Check out my Instagram. #garthleestrings
Thanks again!
Garth, that means a ton. Thank you. And I'm glad some people can watch them big on a screen in stead of just their phones. Such a huge difference especially when they can watch in 4K. And thanks for the musical nod. Sometimes I think I make Paramotor videos as an excuse to make some kind of music.
Ryan, I'm continually blown away by the quality of your videos. The visuals are absolutely stunning. The audio mix is great. The music on this video was making my home theater sub hit rock bottom :) Your narration is very insightful and inspiring. Recently I watched a series called "Ride" on Amazon video. It has Norman Reedus. he goes on a different motorcycle journey each episode with a different guest. I think if you did something like this with paramotors it would be epic. Maybe do your first episode with Tucker, then maybe different notable individuals in the paramotor community each episode.
LOVE the idea. Ok, I'm taking note. And I'm going to watch Ride now too. Thanks.
Oh, and glad you like the music. Did it all myself. :) Always has to have the base hit.
Now if you can get Jaclyn to join the fly camping expedition, too...that's money.
this has a national geographic feel and I love it!
How did I just watch a 7 minute video and felt like I just watched and fantastic full length feature film.... how to get to 10k... come on Our Paramotor Nation. I’ll get in touch with you as soon as possible. Great job
I just stumbled upon this channel today. I'll like, subscribe, and share with my buddies. Great videos! I'm a helicopter guy looking to get into ppg soon
Thanks Kojack!
Looks like a fun place to fly! Nicely done with the editing. That almost enough for a reverse launch wind...so annoying.
Another high quality video .It blows me away you don’t get more views .
Working on it. :) Just go watch one a day for a few weeks , HAHA!
Epic video as always. Would love to know more about what set-up you use to shoot some of the aerial footage. No idea how to push the subscribers, but you deserve way more.
Yea Ryan, how about screw UA-cams request and keep being authentic. You'll have way more followers if you do it your way and you won't be a douche.
Totally, you're not a show pony. You're a man!!!!
Love what you do, share what you love and keep your soul alive. 👍🪂
I appreciate it. Thanks man.
@@ryansouthwell I love your style and skill, can't wait for what you do next fella
Yo man. I suck at UA-cam but just wanted to give you some action and thank you for another stellar adventure. 🤘🏽
Sick! Love your videos.
OK, ok, ok, land on top of a McDonalds, Dell kite walk down the side to the drive through, order a Bacon, Egg and Cheese Mc Risky Biscuit, and fly off washing it down with a red bull! That's 10K worthy! Seriously, it's tough because you and Greg Anthony appeal to adults who are stunned by the cinematography and the editing. Jeans Weightless brings me tears as I watch it once a month because it's on your level - I wish I had a great answer to get you to 10K, but don't compromise your stunning art to get there.
I think you are on to something.... and Thank you.
Stellar video as always! Commenting to realign the inter web algorithms to help get you to 10k!! Looks like I am going to have to head south once the border opens for camping adventures. Weird how our last couple of videos have been dropped on the same day🤔
Fate is involved for sure.... what will the future hold now...?
Great videos man! 🤙🤙🤙 I'm training next week with Team Fly Halo. So excited! Keep up the good work.
Awesome! Best dudes around.You based in Hawaii?
Awesome stuff! I'm reading "The Powered Paragliding Bible" while saving up for flight training... Keep the inspiration coming!
Love you videos, keep on rocking. And come back to Iceland and fly!
I dream about flying Iceland every single day. I need to find a way to make it happen again.
Always want to give more than just 1 like on your videos. Loved it! "...a night out at the million star hotel" :)
Thanks David
Another amazingvideo.
So high quality.
👏👏
Some if my friends who have large youtube channels and do motorcycle giveaways say its about how often you upload, thumbnails and the length like atleast 10 min or so. I personally have decided to upload more often here in the near future, but realizing how much time it takes to edit and come up with content. Firework shows don't come about that often and I haven't vlogged on my motorcycle yet. I will document my paramotor journey hopefully after my second round of training I get my motor this year. My buddies all love your vids.
Just watched it again so really just wanted to leave another comment as support! It amazes me that paramotor video's, especially well put together videos like this, do not get the same views as some dude fishing. Bonkers! But these video's are much appreciated by the audience that gets the pleasure of enjoying. Thank you!
"It gives me that funny feeling inside and makes me want more of it".
Opening up and examining your deepest desires will definitely get you more subscribers.
Easily done :) I probably talk too much as it is though.
Your videos are a hidden gem!
Thanks!!
Love your videos. The images and your music always fit perfectly in a soothing relaxing way. An awesome way to zen out. Keep it up, your subscribers will climb, just keep your fingers on the throttle!!! Fly Safe
Another awesome fly camping. Maybe it's time for a detailed how to fly camp. Gear, weather, fuel, safety, packing, locations
1694 views? This is not okay with me....IMO you make the best paramotor related content I’ve seen on YT. Looking forward to the next vid that should be dropping soon.
I think what draws me to your amazing films are that they are a kin to the old Glen Plake videos and the Fall Line Films. But classed up a few notches. It’s beautiful and so inspirational. The only bad part is the wait for the next one. It was amazing to hear from you tonight. And say you’ve got a bunch of footage in the can. You not only inspire me to have goals of flying these amazing places but also put in the work figure out beautiful ways to record and share my own adventures.
You should publish more -if you have the time ! Make a video with Tucker Gott, thag'd definitely be interesting.
You create masterpiece just with gopro . Damn cool. Lovely bro.
always great content, thanks for that. hope this comment helps get your subscribers up....I also sent a link to a friend. Maybe you can do a bloopers video. your almost fall was amusing.
Keep posting top quality content, more and more will see it and link it. before you know you´ll hit them 10k subscribers ;)
what a show and congratulations for your sensitivity and your stories
as always, great video. your content deserves so much more traffic and appreciation. thanks for sharing with us!
Love the video. Always wanted to paracamp.
The quality of your videos is absurd! Quality will turn into quantity and your subscribers will go up
Keep making awesome videos. Your work is fantastic!
Nice vid👍 10k subscribers in ParaTube is a pretty big number. But you can count me in as 1
Awesome, once again you put out one of the best Para videos.
Great place to fly!............Get yourself on some youtube talk shows! "Our Paramotor Nation" is a good start! And also, "Paraglidingtalk.com". So more people will get to know you! And how awesome your videos are!!
I'll check it out! Tell them to give me a call :)
Great watch!
Love your videos/ adventures.
Great Video! Well produced Ryan.
A masterpiece! At 6:20 the light and shadows and movement make my heart sing. You have to transcend paramotors to breakout, but I have no idea how to do that organically.
Definitely one my my favorite shots. THANKS!
Would love to see a series talking about your journey - behind the scenes a bit mixed with you doing some regular flights. NatGeo level is not required.
Great video!
great vid!
Love the night photography.
Hi Ryan, i really love your style of making videos. When you what them you understand that you can do this for a living😉
Wish you all the best and continue making such great videos
Always happy landings
Bene - ParamotorGermany 🪂🇩🇪
Thanks brother! I appreciate it.
Truly a hero. Stay Epic
I can't believe you're not at 100k yet. Your production quality is insane, you'll get there. Just keep uploading.
Thanks!!! I’ll press on.
You don't have to worry about dry, coarse sand getting everywhere when you have the high ground. Great stuff, I can't wait to binge the rest of your videos!
Thanks Mark. Very few will understand what you just said 😜 but I appreciate someone picking up on it. I usually have at least one Star Wars reference in every video. See if you can find them.
Awesome visuals Ryan. I'm going to share your channel with my local flying groups.
Please do!
Great stuff as always. I haven’t cracked 100 subs, so I have no sage advice other than “on a rack, or on your back” @5:38
Good tip!
Yes! 👊👍🚀
Awesome vids bud!
Fantastic!!
The dunes are smooth and poetic visually.
Pro-tip. Do stupid give-aways to subscribers. Stickers, a GoPro whatever. It works. And you should. Your content is amazing!
Awesome
