Another Way of Geting Down a Mtn

[LRD]

LRD why not take your super lightweight sled, build a chute 300% bigger and give it a shot? Throttle to lay back, brake to roll forward, handle bars to angle either way? HEY????????

The world's fastest human was the flying frenchman....key word WAS...he used to get dropped from a chopper in the Alps and fly down at world's record speed a couple of meters off of the snow. Absolutely amazing to watch the video. I think it was Tag Heuer watch company back in the day used him as their marketing program. Til he went splat

No THANKS!!! Although you know about the para sails controls, push forward on the bar or pull back etc, are you into some other extreme sports?

My 65 old back is so touchy (one disc gone for 27 years) I try not to even get air hardly anymore. Heh Heh except when I do

If they have a name for it "Cliff Strike" must happen fairly regular.

Good Luck

Ok, I'm very impressed.

Do you really have that much control of your "kite"? I mean...does it really respond and hold a line as well as that video shows or is that all risk?

How much experience do those guys have? SICK!

The canopy will hold a nice line and carve as hard and fast as you tell it to.

I have close too 500 skydives with a similar canopy and wouldn't think of attempting some of the stuff they were doing, very impressive. And we all know how much sicker this stuff is in real life vs. Seeing it on a video.

Great vid! Thanks for the link.
