Hanggliding above Mt. Whitney

I got back to Mt Whitney at 16k ft on my flight north, so I was free to burn some altitude. July 1 2023 #hanggliding #mtwhitney
Practice day at Red Rocks Hanggliding comp 2023
Просмотров 328Год назад
A fun practice day at the Red Rocks Hanggliding comp in Monroe, Utah launching from Cove. I ignored the task and first tried going south into the headwind. Had some sketchy lee-side experiences getting drilled into canyons trying to go south of Monroe peak before turning north to fly with the tailwind. A 14.5k ft cloud base day with the best lift at cove launch and at the front of the ridgeline...
Benching up at The Point of the Mountain North

Probably should have made the desperate attempt to bench lower and earlier, but I don't know what I'm doing! Enjoy the flight. PotM North. June 2022.
Mt. Whitney, this is Ghost Rider requesting a flyby.

Air Boss Johnson: Two of your snot-nose jockeys did a fly-by on Mt. Whitney at over 40 KNOTS! I want somebody's butt, I want it now, I've HAD IT!

A short top to bottom sled run when it was really light and about to switch north at the south side of the point.
A fun first hang gliding flight at Soboba
Просмотров 1,1 тыс.2 года назад
With the recent 800 ft HG launch established by Dave Biddle and the new hang glider rack on Jeremy's Kubota ATV for the ride up, it’s a great site to launch low from and climb out of on booming SW days… or get multiple launches and landings. Just watch the flags in the LZ in the afternoon. No need to drive an hour to launch from the top. My first flight at Soboba on 3/15/22 was a playful one - ...
It's a Falcon heaven, man: My first 2 years of hang gliding
Просмотров 41 тыс.2 года назад
My first 2 years of hang gliding as a novice H1 pilot to an intermediate H3 pilot from 2019, 2021-2022, including flights at Santa Barbara, Owens Valley, Crestline, Torrey Pines, and Valle de Bravo in Willy's Wills Wing Alpha 235, my Wills Wing Falcon 1 170, Jeff-O's Wills Wing Falcon 195s, and currently my Moyes Malibu 2 188 (2022 edit: I bought Rick's Wills Wing Sport 2 155). I learned to han...

First Hang Gliding Flight at Torrey Pines on 3/29/22 [Full Length]
“ Mount Whitney is the highest mountain in the contiguous United States, with an elevation of 14,505 feet (4,421 m).” Very impressive flying.
Hell yeah dude! Sick footage!
good song
Congratulations Peter! It looks like you've surrounded yourself with good people. Keep up the great work. Joe Greblo
Spectacular! Thanks for sharing
Hey, just enjoy have fun! My advice as a previous HG/sailplane/power pilot: Don't fall into the "higher performance is more fun" trap. I did, but you do your thing!
I 100% agree, I have a sport 2 that I keep in Valle and a u2 now. The Malibu is more fun on any given day to float and boat around on. But when I need to go places…
How I can get handling
Wow Look 👀 at that Climb out
16K is pretty thin air. Were you using supplemental oxygen?
Yessir. My response to hypoxia is bad headaches and a general feeling of misery above 13k without O2.
WhaaaaU!!!
Awesome!
Where's your other wheel?
Both were on there, maybe it got edited out by the 360 cam?
Spectacular scenery and nice landings 😎👍
Breath taking!!! 😮
Visited the Owens Valley way back in 1977 ( Gak ! 46 years ago ! ) The scenery here is nothing short of spectacular.
We were thermalling with sailplanes that flew out of minden-Tahoe. Some landed in Santa Barbara that day.
Awesome!!!
Epic. I’m coming with you next time 😅
Hate him? Envy for sure considering the ease of getting higher than them with a more spectacular view. Or was the pilot pissing as he flew over?!?
I stay dehydrated while I fly 😁
Aerobatic chandelles above the highest mountain in continental United States. Nice work.
Just have to show off when you’re up there 😁 thanks!
Very cool
Amazing scenery
Que espectacular despegue ...éxitos!
scary exhilarating
How did you get to fly torrey pines as an H3? i thought it was H4 only
On radio with heiney, but I don’t like flying there. It’s okay if it’s blowing hard straight west, but that’s really rare. Too stressful with dodging PGs and the sketchy rotor landing behind the PGs kiting in front.
Get thermal and up..up away
Super
Nice...... no words to say. Just beautiful..God bless you all
Where'd he go?
👌👌👌
Looks like a fun place to fly!
💋❤️👉🏻👍🏻👉🏻💐👉🏻
Rick’s glider?
My glider 😁 Rick sold his Sport 2 to me, and he got an Aeros Discus from Atilla.
That'd freedom
আলহামদুলিল্লাহ,, alhamdulillah,, very nice, Good job
Wow... !!! My best friend, Great... We liked and enjoyed to the end. Awesome... Full watched. Thanks Have a happy day!
Great video Peter! Looking forward to sharing the skies with you again.
At the very least at El Peñon again next year!
Really thrilling performance congratulations 🙏
..flying on the good view.. 😊👍
Amazing. Killin it

She’s also kind of far back there 😅, lol.
very cool
Almost as cool as hand gliding
Hi I am sukhcharan singh paragliding power para gliding pilot I am interested to take training of hang glider
Go take lessons from an instructor at a small training hill! It’s life changing 👍
Price bro
Wow what an incredible day! And what a beautiful glider!
Yeah, the person that sold it to me had great taste.
My First Glider was an {Falcon One} 225. You know, no one ever cored through Me while I was Flying My Falcon. What a; {CLIMB MONSTER} that Falcon was!
Smooth air. Nice flight and landing! It's so cool to, unexpectedly, see my glider in your video, (You parked right behind me, as i was breaking down)! 😃
Yeah, thanks for the LZ beer!
Sweet! I keep hearing about Soboba from the speed wingers I fly with out here in the KRV.
FYI, Jeremy closes shop and leaves every July and August to escape the heat.
Nice flight thank you for sharing
Nice video. And a fine glider 👍
Hot landing!
Just how I like them 🔥
