    Speed flying....might have seen

    Sorry if this has been posted before.

    Paragliding friend sent this to me...to bad I don't know anything about paragliding. This would be perfect down High Rustler on a busy day...you can just fly over people in your way.

    Well then you should sit down and STFU for awhile. Read the welcome wagon and find the search function while you're having your quiet time.

    Chi, actually I don't think this exact video has been posted before, but there's a way more radical one that's been posted like ten times, click on Tipp's link above.

    It IS a rerun but hasn't been rerun as many times as the other one. You can never know because people always call the thread "extreme!!" or "this is crazy!!"

    Nevertheless, I am here making the rounds in the ski-gliding threads.

    It has, in the original 'Eiger' thread.
    The guy is Guerlain Chicherit, filmed in Tignes.
