Endless Wingsuit flight at Olan Peak
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 сер 2024
- July 2014, we went with my friends David and Aurélien on one of the most classic alpine basejump exit in the french alps : l'Olan (3564m, Ecrins National Parc). Climbing an alpine route, leaping of a big mountain, turning around and changing valleys during an endless flight is one of the most amazing thing you can enjoy with a wingsuit. And if you can share a nice 2 way, it's better!
Once you're used to that kind of flight and adventure, you're just dreaming of more new ones, conventional jumps almost look bland...
After Grandes Jorasses and Aiguille Dibona, it was one of the big lines planned to fly on season 2014. Several others followed ;-)
-----------------------------
Juillet 2014, avec David et Aurélien, nous partons pour l'Olan (3564m, parc national des Ecrins) un des sauts haute-montagne classiques des alpes françaises. Parcourir une joli voie d'alpinisme pour sauter d'un sommet d'une montagne, tourner tout autour en changeant de vallée lors d'un vol interminable est une des choses les plus exaltantes en wingsuit. Et si en plus on réalise un joli vol à deux, c'est bien mieux! Une fois habitué à ce genre de vol et d'aventure, on ne rêve que de ce genre de sauts, et tourner en rond sur des sauts plus conventionnels semble perd un peu d'intérêt...
Après les Grandes Jorasses et l'Aiguille Dibona, c'était l'une des belles lignes prévues pour la saison 2014. De quoi booster la motivation pour le reste de la saison et les projets suivant! ;-)
It would be crazy to see them flying while hiking there
Amazing how the flight time was EXACTLY 2 minutes before the two opened their chutes! (More FLYING than falling)!
You can tell they have a lot of experience and technique. They can glide higher (more horizontally) when they choose to. I know that wingsuits are very responsive to your body movements but man they make it look way easier than it must be.
perfect flight, perfect mountain, perfect sound, ta ra ra, ta ra ra, tarararara, taratatatouuuuuuuuuuuuu
Ah les Ecrins !!! Magnifique !!!
Ahh jolie!!!
Très bon edit, très beau vol, très bon choix de zic, bref voilà les sauts que j'aime mater -!!!
Mais sérieusement niveau zic, ça fait du bien!!
Car désolé mais l'electro/dance chelou comme les vidéos de skydive...y a pas que ça...
Er...... Wow. I love watching wingsuit videos. They often drive me mad for just been a million and one short clips. This was ace! I'd love to wingsuit. I have dreamed about flying since I can remember. I'm 43 now, too old??? Used to climb all the time, mountain bike took over. Ski of a winter. Bla bla. Parachuted once. Love adrenalin!
NEVER TOO OLD BRO
🐶👊.. Blummin feel it sometimes 😁. I'm a bit mashed. Neck, shoulder, arm and hand issues 😶... But I suppose I could still physically go wingsuiting. ... The last few nights I've been dreaming of flying. Love it! It's probably helped by the Codeine 😎.
Black n Tan you're 40, so i'm assuming you have a bit of money put aside, i'm 18 and ive done my aff this summer, i'm at 14 jumps now, and i hope to do wingsuit one day, but i'm struggling a bit to do jumps because of lack of money, pretty hard at my age ^^ but you probably have easily a few grand put aside and have an income, so stop waiting around and fucking jump ^^ at your age actually you can progress much faster than a guy my age because you have a job! and hand and shoulder issues aren't an excuse especcially for skydiving, its not very physically demanding !
Haha... 😉. I wish! ... Though I don't blame you for your assumptions. Ok... I'll spill it. I'm 44, and was very active all my life till a bit over a year ago. I did the sports as mentioned in my first comment , and worked in rope access for twenty years. Had neck and other issues for many years, had a tumble down a mountain while skiing a few years ago, and my shoulder was suffering for months... Got scanned... That showed a few issues in neck / root nerves. Told to crack on as best as I could... Stay active... Bla bla... Might require surgery in years to come. So ... Last spring it all went down hill quite quickly. Neck git scanned again, it is worse and causing some but not all the pains I have. My right arm for instance, gives me loads of grief but it's not my neck. I could go on, you get the picture 📷. So, I'm not working now, was on sick benefits but now been put on jobseekers allowance, so looking for part time work, that doesn't involve using arms n hands much. Typing this gives me grief😶. I'm over drawn, and have a mortgage. Want to buy my INTENSE 5.5 Mountain bike 🚲😉. However, 😁... I'm going to phone a House sitting agency tomorrow and try and get on the books, for paid house sitting. I can do that! I have a friend that does it ... Not through agency, and gets a £1000 yes one thousand pounds a week, when she sits (16 weeks a year fir one couple 💑) she knows a woman who was getting £400 a week throug agency... That's a good start. ... Right! Where's my drugs? ... 😉👊🐶
Black n Tan so whats all that to do with not being able to skydive ? you can skydive wth all those issues i guarantee it. and as for hat house sitting, what do u do, sit all day ? i don't quite grasp of what it consists of and why yo get payed, but anyway do you have money ? or are you broke ?
Man, this shit is so cool!! I wish so badly that I could go. This would be a good wingsuit flight for me, I don't want to slim the ground, at least not at first lol. This would feel like you're flying too, but not be swoopin through trees. So cool. The flight wouldn't bother me, but that climb! Lol I don't know if I would climb the mountain, might need a drop off from a chopper.
Yes it's nice flight but for real experience alpine base jumpers. Chopper drop off is illegal in France. And even more in this place that is the core of Ecrins National Park as just even flying an helicopter illegal. But wingsuiting by fair means is allowed.
Actually, chopper drop off is a bit pussy style when it comes to talk about big mountain wingsuiting ;-)
Magnifique
Completely grandiose like d'habitude !
That's a long flight!!Really u opened at 2:01?Great job dude
Me gustaria poder volar asi un dia , esta genial 👍👊
Rooo... C'est beau ça !!
Mega! I could barely get two minutes from a plane 🤣
quality time
Endless alright. Nice!
Harikasınız..
That was a fun looking line. How many vertical was it? Top to LZ?
It's a 2400m jump, like most of the exits in that mountain range.
magnifique cadre. ptite question : c'est quoi ce "concept" d'ouverture...sur la wing blanche ? un wingtippush ? les bras semblent pouvoir se libérer de l'aile pour ouvrir (joncs de libé...) ?
Is there the same video but without the music? Only the sound of the air?
Yes, in my computer but not online...
François Gouy Airlines Well? Please put it online.
it sounds like this;
WWWHKWAHWASHAWAHAWAWWWHKWAHWASHAWAHAWA What the hell you expect? Angels?
Beautiful! :) Amazing distance. Well done! How long was your hike? :)
Hi, it's commonly a two days trip (3h to the hut, then 4-5h moderate alpinism route next morning). One can do it one push with good motivation.
amazing ! i think taking your relax tie in hiking is good . tiring your self up before jumping is not good
I'd do just about anything to wingsuit down a mountain if only I had the money, but climbing the mountains first? Haha, naw I'm cool. Fly me to the top and I'm in!
Waoow
So where do you put all your climbing gear?
In the suit.
@@Lejouy okay. But where exactly because everything looks so compact? I'd love to try this one day and always wondered this question hahahaha
@@roryevans8109
first you try that at home on a easy practice jump you know well.
Then there are plenty of differents way to store the gear but one of the common one is :
-Poles or ice axe (mounted with screws as you can take of the pick of it) along the out side the leg in the socks and pant (or in the pole straps of your suit is there are)
- rope long coiled in between the legs passed in the leg loop of the climbing harness and bottom in the socks
- the stash bag is flat on the back, you put the crampons well pack on eachother at the bottom it and set the straps very loose for them to be on your butt, lower than you rig. Then you put suit and rig on.
- biners, ice screws, cams are on the harness gear loops.
- all our clothes on you
- waterpocket empty flat in the stash bag
- that's it.
And as always : step by step and only one new thing the same time.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Go somewhere warm with a lot of updrafts
Very very beautiful, but ,for me, would be better without the music, I prefer listen the sound of the wind. Any way , congratulations to you!
I was dreaming I was flying in a wingsuit
2:49 how can this dude go up
yeah it was like, wtf mind blowing
Perhaps from the updrafts. Those wingsuits have amazing lift capability!
He was probably just slowing down, so his falling speed became slower than the camera's falling speed which makes him look like he's going up.
at any point of time, we can lift up to 100ft
Starts @ 1:09
Why oh why is there background music? No song or classical music piece is a match to nature's wind sounds trying to stop you!
False video title, it clearly ended!
are you kidding me? two hours of flying? wow, cool. you can sleep in the sky. LOL
Are you kinding me? I told you 2 days!
+François Gouy Airlines I saw the time when you jump and the time you let the parachute open up. it took two hours. is it right?
@@BangNong 2 minutes lol
I think he said 2 hours to climb up the mountain. I think
REAL SPEED...NOT SLOW MOTION:::GODDAMIT!!!!!
This is real speed. If you want it faster go jump it yourself!
снимать свой парашют просто верх создания клипов
Подумала, что написала? Эксперт по "клипам" и по wingsuit base jumping 🤣
