bilbosmeggins Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Holy sh!t. That is truly the most remarkable flying I have ever seen. Acro on a speed canopy . Things are really moving forward at an incredible pace. Me predicting what field I may or may not land in seems far less impressive now, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan_k Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 That's amazing Big up to the pilots for their skill level. That's the closest I've seen any paraglider pilot flying like a bird, so at one with the wing. Cheers, Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dede2008 Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 the wing inflation at 0:18 is very impressive... great skill, they make it looks so easy. I think thats the easy part of the whole thing If you ever tried a speed riding wing, they are a toy to launch especially in winds like that.

rob_jones Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 you know we have quite a strong Speedriding community in the UK now and a few sites where the guys are throwing wings around in a similar manner. Main sites are down in South Wales where they are using the seabreeze to good effect. The site in the video is in New Zealand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
