Просмотров 11 тыс.2 года назад
A dream come true! Realizing a 270 km FAI triangle in the flatlands. With the swiss league we went to Caico, Brazil in order to try and brake the open distance world record. However on some days we encountered really light winds, the chance for me to realize a long standing dream and try to fly 300 km FAI triangle in the flats!

Hyperlapse of a classic paragliding flight along the scenic route from Fiesch over the Grimsel, Furka, Oberalp and Bielerhöhe Passes. Personally I love one way flights, going with the wind as far as you can and see where you end up! The flight was done on the 26.06, a day before Chrigel Maurer did his magic move along the same route during the 2021 X-Alps in similar conditions. The flight start...

Trying to break the world XC record by flying from Caico in the Sertão, NE Brazil. I encounter epic skies, filled with wonderful cumulus clouds, that take me far across the brazilian flatlands and all the way into the sunset. The flight was done unusually late in the season, at the end of december, which shows in a greener landscape during the first stretch of the flight. Flight on xcontest: ww...

270 km on a Paraglider | Stunning Hyperlapse | Swiss Alps
Просмотров 277 тыс.3 года назад
Must see hyperlapse of a 270 km flat triangle from Niesen via Valais and Luzern and back. Good but humid conditions carried me through the alps. After abandoning plans to fly to Chamonix due to low cloudbase and NW wind, I'm trying to fly all the way to the flatlands before getting stopped by a strong headwind. After returning to Niesen I manage to extend the flight by taking the prealps autoba...

I am sailing: A busy evening on the lake
Your videos of flights are the best.. dont go 360, too much distortion with 360 cams
Hi Seb, I'm a new subscriber from southern Japan - July 2024. I hope you start to produce more videos, because everything I've seen so far is fantastic. I've been flying since 1996, but still keen to learn! 😁👍
love that thx
Hello Sebastian What quind of Vario do you use?
legend! As someone who's run and hiked all through those areas but never done XC there... DUDE AMAZING! The Wisshorn and seeing duforspitze and then soaring 4000 meter peaks... wow! Thank you!
Very helpful. Well explained. Much appreciated Thanks
on 0:47 what are those steps on the mountain?
Your videos were so entertaining... What happened? why no more videos in the last years? Come on....
Thanks for sharing with us this awesome video !
This is the best video i have seen in my life about paragliding! its amazing, thanks you for sharing!
Totally awesome. Thanks for sharing. Still you point out what I find difficult: finding the exact trigger point. It seems “easy” to find the general trigger point. Did I understand correctly to pick up a low trigger to get up to the ridge for a stronger thermal?
Wow I learned two things and with the time lapse I know I’ll remember, you made it so visual. Thank you!
Excellent, thanks.
How come nothing new? You good? Your videos are the best.
Excellent
Great! It is what I was looking for a long time. Thanks!
Hi! Can I ask what settings you usually use? Your videos are superb!
I like to ask naive questions : why would it be bad to end up inside a not-so-big cloud ? Isn't it so, you just hold a direction until you exit ?
2:30 klingt wie Schwarzenegger 🙂
Excellent… can you tell us about crisp young growing margins vs raggedy deteriorated margins
Does anyone know why there are no new videos?
Awesome video. I was hoping to see the flight on XContest, but despite having an account, it says I'm not authorized to see it. Could you it available again?
what a flight! Congratulations
Una imagen vale más que mil palabras
Also tell you crossed each point in how much time
i'm trying do make videos like that on Brazil to help us
I am a glider pilot and I find your cloud analyses and teaching very helpful. Thank you!
Brilliant 👏 this is really helpful.
A great tutorial on clouds, well done and thanks
Every time i watch your videos, i end up with a huge smile on my face. I wish you uploaded more videos. You haven't posted anything in a long time.
Wow, I learned so much with this video. Excellent work, keep making those!
How did you manage to record the whole flight? Where you using an external battery?
What a Nice 🎉🎉🎉🎉 Congratulations for this magnífic job, greeting from Italy
This tutorial makes me even more anxious to learn things that are too expensive for me.... I even have difficulty having my own paraglider... thank you for the dream :)
Master at this game
Thank you very much, this was very interesting and I learned a Lot.
Epic
Awesome video and analysis!
1:54, 2:43, 3:33, 5:58..cool and amazing moments, to be able to fly inside the clouds in person!!
Well produced, informative video. Thanks!
I wish i could see time lapse while flying. Great video, thanks.
Super helpful, thanks Seb!
Thanks a lot!
Great video! Many thanks for sharing your knowledge with newbies like me!
Yes thank you
does that mean, that a thermal will never lift you into the cloud if the cloud is not developing cloud suck?
Thanks for explaining. Very good content. 💪
This was awesome advice. I was searching for this kind of information
Dear Sebastian Do you think it is possible to start on the Üetliberg in Zürich an Land in Fiesch? If so how long would that take you?
Thanks, I really like your videos! I have now also a new insta360 and from time to time I see stiching errors - Do you also observe this from time to time?
