    Another Epic video and great choice of music! Tom has a sick place and he has got some skills in that plane.

    That shot of snowboarding next to the kitfox taking off is insane! One of the coolest aviation or skiing videos ever! And the ending is the best entrance ever.

    Wow, I almost quit towards the end when you were talking about landing on the snow because I just watched that other video you did on it. Glad I didn't or I would have missed the awesome parasking. The wind must have been perfect and you must be a parachute badass to pull that off.

  • @Mytyweav
    @Mytyweav 5 років тому +4

    You were right Jonas! This video was fun to watch! Old Capt Grey Beard/Tommy Simko looks great and you two look like you're having a blast! I've never seen Simko in Grey hair! Hahahaha.. We were both Pterodactyl pilots in 1981 having a blast with UltraLights. His Rans S7S is doing a fine job of keeping him flying. I have an S7 Long tail too. Great to see you guys flying off the snow and ripping up the day. Loved your shot with the parachute! Sure wish you hadn't thrown that fuel pump in the trash..... New one cost me $230 bucks!
    Have fun..... Weav
