incredible flight in interlaken, switzerland - tram up to Birg, just below the schilthorn, hiked down to cloudbase, launched, thermalled on this knife-edge ridge for like 10 minutes, flew out over at like '1000 above the murren launch, then crossed the valley to the other cliffs and flew there, right below the eiger jungfrau etc, unbelievable.
not the longest flight, only like 30 minutes, but so super epic best flight i've ever had. also liz(my wife) was with me in the air on a tandem with Beni from chillout paragliding based in interlaken, i highly recommend them! liz was doing some sweet wingovers and a small SAT it was a great flight for her.
SHOT LIST:
1:55 - launch
4:30 - see the thermal
4:50 - begin thermalling right over this knife-edge ridge
(stay in lift for like 10 minutes)
12:00 - LIZ & Beni(instructor) do set of sweet wingovers
14:20 - around this point start hitting bumpy air
19:11 - way up over Murren and cliff, about 1000' over the town and almost 3000' over the landing spot.
19:45 - commit to crossing the valley
22:40 - reach the other side of the valley
29:32 - base jumper in a wingsuit opens his canopy near me, just below my elevation(orange chute, right in the middle of the screen)
31:25 - landing
32:35 - kiss LIZ

I have just recently become aware of this. I am interested in it for my own project (paramotoring). But this video just embodies everything that seems to be amazing about it. This has got to be one of the best and most free feelings in the world... Man I wanna learn to do this so bad!

Your flight and video are great. This video really inspired me to go big when I was a new pilot. I went with friends to Switzerland a few years back and we flew some great flights but not as dramatic as that one. Nice flight!

re: traveling - you can go dirtbag and camp all over, keep costs down pretty low. you can also stay in hostels etc. i'd plan on camping for most of it, then stay in a hotel room w showers/pool and once a week or whatever. California, Utah, Wyoming, Idaho, Colorado are all great for camping/exploring.

hey Adriano todo bein! paragliding is not cheap, but it's hard to put a price on it; you could spend your money driving around in a fancy car, but i think this is a much better place to spend your money :). My wife's tandem flight in this video(she's only been one other time) cost her ~$160-$200 USD. One year later SHE STILL TALKS ABOUT IT. That's a couple nice dinners that you're not gonna be talking about a year later. fyi I've flown in Florianopolis and Santos in Brazil, very fun!

I watched the whole thing and enjoyed every second. I cant imagine how amazing this would be if I were to do it in real life rather than enjoy it vicariously through a youtube video. I wonder how much a glider and all the equipment to make this happen would cost. I either want to get into this or hang gliding. They seem amazingly fun.

been flying a long time myself, but the guy who passes by at the first part of the vid was still taking lessons. with instruction and oversight from a certified pilot you'll be able to do 'sled rides' in calm conditions very quickly, with your instructor giving instruction via a radio. additionally, 'a flight such as this' requires the swiss alps!

Hi Jared, excellent video. I've flown tandem several times with Beni - an excellent pilot. I'm booked on a Chillout Paragliding course in September. I am a bit nervous - it feels like quite a step to go from tandem to solo. I'm curious about your landing technique here - you seem to spiral down vertically towards the landing site. What made you do it that way? I was thinking that you would fly along the valley, then turn and basically fly straight towards the landing site.

+Charles Bristol A spiral dive is the fastest way to get down, there are many techniques for loosing height quickly but a spiral dive is certainly most efficient.

You could probably do food for $10/day(again that's boiling water/eating ramen/oatmeal etc with an occasional decent meal) and then camp on public lands (free) with the occasional hotel, probably do the entire trip for less than $1000 USD a person not including airfare. Your biggest cost would be car rental, more specifically gas. look up Zion National Park, Yosemite, Bryce Canyon, Grand Canyon, Jackson Hole, Rocky Mountain NP, Sierra Nevada Mountains, etc. you could hit all those = EPIC
