Friday Freakout: Grown Man Cries In The Sky

Friday Freakout: Line Twists, With A Pinch Of Grou...
Thermals are a paraglider’s wet dream. That is until your paraglider goes boom! Then that wet dream turns into wet underwear faster than you can say “oh shiiiii…” As the ground rush intensifies, the video cuts out — he didn’t think his GoPro was on, so he thought he was turning it on to film...

Cool Wingsuit Stunt Off Paraglider From 1,800ft
Erwan Chevalerias hitches a ride on a paraglider before flying his wingsuit from 1,800ft. It’s pretty cool, but double the altitude compared to this other crazy skydiver who jumps off a paraglider from only 900ft! Watch Video »
Friday Freakout: Ground Launch Fail
Here’s a lesson in ground launching. Step 1: Don’t do this! Step 2: See step 1. Clearly not the best way to start off a day of speedflying, but despite the minor crash he still managed to brush himself off and squeeze out a few good flights for the rest of the session. Of all... Watch Video »

Friday Freakout: Skydiver Crashes Into Paraglider
This is crazysauce! A skydiver crashes into a paraglider while tracking over a beach in Oludeniz, Turkey. I’m not sure I agree with blaming the skydiver or the paraglider; I think the mistake here was sharing airspace in the first place, but some of you might feel differently. What do you think?

Friday Freakout: Crazy Canopy Wrap With Paraglider
Infinity tumbling on a paraglider can be a lot of fun. Especially when you first learn how… until you try one too many tumbles and become gift wrapped in your own canopy. David, you’re one lucky guy; that was quite the mess you were in! Good job on pulling your reserve with your arm caught... Watch Video »
Paraglider Rollover at Perrine Bridge
Earlier this week I posted a video of a BASE jump off the Perrine Bridge, as well as a BASE jumping photo of Marshall Miller’s “scared face.” So it only seemed natural to combine the two: Marshall Miller + Perrine Bridge. Here’s Marshall doing a paraglider rollover at Perrine Bridge in Twin Falls, Idaho. Watch Video »
Friday Freakout: Paraglider Cheats Death in Moab
The last thing a paraglider wants to see flash before their eyes as they ground launch off a cliff in Moab is their glider. I think the only thing that re-inflated his glider was the warm, moist air that came out of his pants. “Oh f**k. Ohhh, shit. Holy shit” sounds about right. This could’ve... Watch Video »
