- Опубликовано: 19 дек 2017
- In July 2017, 31 world-class athletes from 20 different nations embarked on a grueling hike and fly adventure across the Alps. Filming the race was an 18-man camera crew, equipped with the latest technology and a helicopter. Just in time for the holidays, we've put together a 52-minute documentary showcasing the most epic moments of this year’s edition.
Jam-packed with incredible paragliding and almost impossible feats of Alpine adventure, the movie is now online at www.redbullxalps.com. Narrated by race reporter Tarquin Cooper, the documentary features veteran pilots such as reigning champion Chrigel Maurer (SUI1), Paul Guschlbauer (AUT1) and Romanian running man Toma Coconea (ROU), as well as rookies like Benoît Outters (FRA4) and Simon Oberrauner (AUT4).

That was total madness, I loved every bit of that!
OMG. The fact, that takats ran his first marathon ever on the day after he pulled his night pass and went up to monte baldo by night is just covered by "ran 20 km in 2 hours"? wtf? this was one of my absolut highlights - especially after beeing over 30 hours awake doing high level exhausting extreme sport. i cannot believe that.
And besides this: i really tried to follow the race. but the coverage was so bad - you had to follow every athlets facebook page in the hope of getting some information. after a while i gave up and said to myself: wait for the documentary. but this is not what i was expecting.
i really hope next time red bull does a better job in covering this great event.
I know many people are complaining that one cant see in this where all the athletes are, but I still love this video! It shows a lot of emotions and most importantly it has some great shots of the scenery and the flying! amazing filming!
Thanks for this Clip! However I would really appreciate if you could focus more on tactical decisions made for the Day and their autcome for each pilot and the field in General. Maybe showing changes of the field as livetracking maps taken from every Start and end of the day. This to my opininion would be of more interest than athletes blister compilation ;-). But again Thanks for this outstanding competition and Video! Love it!
yes,and several time show how some devices are charged !
Another year, another x-race video where you have almost no idea where people are in relation to each other and the Waypoints.
A. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol.
It’s still an amazing race... it would be awesome to do this.
A. Totally agree! For an event that is as much of geography, and 100%GPS reliant, I wonder if the video makers don’t have a clue how to add map graphics. Anyways, I appreciate their work of making this video
they should just make a live tracking at the right side .. with km between the people
So awesome
How about mentioning some of the other athletes. I know its exciting to see Maurer and the other top pilots but a lot of us support racers from our home countries. Almost nothing on these guys who are pushing themselves to the extreme and making the flights of their lives.
No room for an emergency parachute I imagine? Spooky with those high AR wings. Amazing!
Hi there, an emergency parachute is mandatory during all flights in Red Bull X-Alps.
Great video! Well done. Very fun to watch. Newer videos are too short! Can't cram the whole thing into 27 minutes!
Awesome! :)
Wow again!
Please use more actual GPS locations on a map of the various athletes, day by day, it would be more interesting to follow the actual progress of the race this way. The documentary approach is great, but it could be more balanced with like a live commentary approach in the style of an actual race event.
Thanks a lot for your feedback Caspar, we'll take it in consideration!

let's go to the refuge!
very goood........very tough.....
Was für ein Rennen!!! Was für ein Abenteuer!!! Da sind noch echte Enthusiasten am Werk. €10.000,-- für den Ersten. Bei einem Rennen das 12 Tage vollen Einsatz kostet. Das ergibt bei einem durchschnittlichen Tag von ca. 16 Std. einen Stundenlohn von €50,-- . Dafür würde ein Fußballspieler von solchem Niveau sich wohl nicht einmal die Fußballschuhe anziehen.
Ganda nmn ng view lods
14:00 starts off sounding like a Frenchman and finishes sounding like a American lol
Wow!
Hey redbull. Agree with all the other comments.... it’s an epic race, but the coverage should show where they are, who’s leading, who’s gaining, where each guy is relative to check points, etc.
I really enjoyed this video. I just missed the ranking position on each point of the race.
Could you please include a map with the positions of the attendess? Would be very helpful to track the race :)
Dream, and not more from me.
Please can you upload same type video 2019
nice video but I also would love to see more of the strategy. also please leave out sensless sentences like "...but his ultimate goal is to reach Monaco" Thats everyones goal! Don't try to make things artificially exciting when in fact the situation is clear. After all this is Europe and not America. We enjoy informative documentaries. Additionally most people who watch this are probably paragliding pilots themselves. So mentioning technical aspects would be appreciated.
Great race! but why not take it to Chamonix or Annecy where you could arrange a more spectacular finale, and where paragliding is something people care about. Monaco feels very boring and isolated for this event.
Annecy was one of the stops back in 2015. Not sure why it wasn't in 17...
And chamonix is where paragliding started ;)
If this would be a script, the producer would fire the writer
sorry, but claudio heidl 😂😂😂
aaaaaalways first at the start, always!
4:12, who is running with an umbrella ? must be someone very pragmatic...

Hey i'm just a 15 years kid now but I found this really fun, wanna know about it! How can I participate?
Learn to fly, become an amazing athelete, then pass the horrendesly hard tests to be one of the 31 selected.
Wow people really be crushing dreams here, he’s only 17! If you start training now im sure by the time youre old enough to participate youll be a competitor people fear!
which paragliders did they use ? A B C or any other ? A paragliding Pilot could probably answer that.
49:22 anyone know what this song is that's playing?
the same queation
Life we lead - sounds of red bull
Whats the song called starting at 47:18?
Man, I don't know but I tried googling the lyrics and can't find it... Anyone???
Live we lead / Sounds of Redbull
No fpv.
When will they have the race end somewhere where people genuinely care about paragliding... Monaco sucks
looks like your wish has come true
paraglider fall inches away from power line at 0:20
It's too bad the narrator did not pronounce the names of the contestants in their native form. Too much `Brit` I suspect.
😍😍😍🪂🪂🪂
how do they pee
Competing for Darwin Awards?
hideously cut video. so much potential wasted.
I love this video. It's proof that the american democrats are wrong about White people.
I love this video. It shows the beauty of you guys. The fun racing. The fun adventure.
