  • On a beach in Mexico, my friend Mo told me about his plans for last minute trip to Nepal- after one google image search of the country, I said i'm coming with you.
    I packed only what I could carry on a rented 200cc motorcycle, and arrived with and open mind and zero expectation besides seeing the tallest mountains in the world, and an adventure with a good friend.
    This movie is an attempt to capture the experience from my perspective.

    Judson, I travel South America on a motorcycle with a paramotor on the back of it. Presently I'm in Peru. On a daily basis I wonder if there is anyone out there that can relate to the words that are in my head as alone I put in mile after mile, after mile. But you didn't just eloquently echo my thoughts, you spoke to my heart also. I just wanted to thank you for making this video. I just wanted to thank you for all the hours you sat behind a computer editing and choosing just the right narration. For me, it was special. Thank you.

    Greetings from Crestline! As usual, really amazing content. Darren here. Can’t sleep from adrenaline from you know what! Was flying and thermalling and scratching super low all day, then another hour glassoff at Crestline. I can’t believe that’s your first XC! Indeed, truly terrifying. I did my first successful XC to Hangar 24 brewery in Redlands solo, and let me assure you, my knees were shaking violently. What a rad location for your first XC! Congratulations! I know you’ll be doing that again. I’ve never motored, but I feel you should fly unpowered more often, especially XC. XC is a true, full blown adventure, especially while traveling. You rock bro! I’m so Jelly! Someone has to do it.

    @darrendix5163 2 месяца назад +7

    Dude, come back and fly with us at Crestline! I’m way more into XC than the other Kooks. And you nailed it. Riding turbulent thermals totally requires you to make peace with it, and just relax. You’ll know when you truly reach total relaxation, it’s a bit of an epiphany. For me, it’s the most spiritual connection possible with paragliding, and it becomes by far the most comfortable place you have ever been, getting tossed around, often very violently by turbulent thermals, and knowing it is your duty to take whatever comes your way in order to harvest the lift that it yields. Many many times I have left thermals because it used to scare the shit out of me and is definitely uncomfortable at first. Now it’s totally addictive! Enjoy! Our pilots here have crossed the Mexico border, and the Arizona border with both hangliders and paragliders. That honestly sounds hard to believe but we have it recorded. My Neighbor and friend Rebar Dan has his HG flight to Mexico recorded.
