Wow!! I loved watching this video! Very well done! I'm also glad you showed us the "parawaiting" during the bad weather, the funny clips on the donkey, the subtitles, and also the wonderful people you met along your journey! This was an adventure of a lifetime for you both! Thanks so much for sharing it with us!!! 🤗🙏
Wow, just found this now. What a beautiful video. Beautiful flying footage, and some of the most beautiful humanity, unspoiled by commercial distraction. This to me is very close to perfect freedom.
A friend of mine has done the transcription, I am very happy that it's possible for the Chinese paragliding community to enjoy our little adventure with us! Thank you ;-)
Thank you Carl, so glad you liked it! There are so many ups and downs in a trip like this, it would be a shame to miss out on one half and only talk about the good :-)
I love this movie but hadn't realised your involvement until today. Having seen you at the Kendal Mountain Festival it is now so obvious - your sense of humour and production quality really shine through. Bravo, you are an inspiration !
Thank you for the inspiration and for leaving a comment Boxi! ;-) Your trip made me dream and it still does, hopefully one day I'll be able to see those mountains from the perspective you saw them from
In the Garm valley there should be plenty of landing opportunities, but you might have to check out things with the landowners and especially with the local authorities before you take your material there, as the sailplane doesn't go unnoticed. Then again the country is quite small, and with a sailplane you can go so much further than with a paraglider, maybe have a look at some of the bigger places in the vicinity?
Thank you! It's an amazing place, and if you're an adventurous soul with solid paragliding competences and a bit of Russian or Persian in your luggage you'll have a blast there.
Vidéo des plus belles ! Des images à couper le souffles ! Vraiment trop fort sa fait super plaisir, bonne continuation et de bons et nombreux volent 😊😊😊
It is not just fun, it is an important propaganda for healthy leisure. Such videos can motivate people to travel, fly and hike instead of just drinking alcohol on the beach during vacation. Tajikistan is a great place, but it was super-safe to travel when it was part of USSR. Now it is adjacent to Afganistan where Taliban acts, so I think the risk was higher than average. From my point of view, you had to find the guide among local paraglider sportsmen and travel with him. Or at least to had the group with 5-8 people. Sorry for this silly advice, I think you are very experienced tourists, but some others might follow your example. BTW, do you have a track of your journey?
yes we agree with what you say, we plan on the spot our itinerary with local guides and we then engaged in our adventure, I would advise everyone to do the same and also follow your advice.
It's been 8 months I'm paragliding, it's such a great sports but it's agonizing when u have to weight on mountains to wait for the right weather and winds. It teaches patience.
I've seen a hundred or more ppg and para-glider videos on you tube, this makes the top 5, freaking awesome. so Christina is aerobatic champ of men and women? wow impressive, really she the best over men and women? this video is awesome, high ratio of thumbs up compared to thumbs down as should be expected, whoever placed thumbs down is a total loser
And at this juncture seven people felt the need to dis this video... What is the world coming too? Just stay safe and warm in your armchairs. Superb adventure, Superb video! Just give us a few more hours footage to give a real feel for how much fun you must have had :0)
Haha!! Thanks a lot for your feedbacks, very much appreciated. Yes I could have put more footage, but the GoPros were not stabilized, so it's little bit dizzy to watch... Thanks anyway! Subscribe for more!! :-)
Haha I have stopped trying to understand certain people a long time ago ... All you can do is surround yourself with people who are good for you I guess ;-)
SAPurdie So true. Couldn’t agree more. Being in the mountains flying is the most beautiful thing. I have always dreamed of a vol bivi expedition, but clearly my mind needs to be ‘stronger ‘. Thanks for sharing your experiences, they are inspiring!
Magnifique!! bravo à vous deux pour ce voyage et pour ce montage. Les images sont grandioses et le film contient une bonne dose d'humanité et d'humour. D'ailleurs, j'ai bcp rigolé quand vous montrez les moments un peu plus tendus (les scènes du petits déj sont fantastiques ;-D ). Celles-ci m'ont rappelé des situations bien familières ;-) A bientôt dans les airs ou sur terre! Marc
@@christinakolb7971 Maître Guillaume a bien fait les choses ;-) Ces moments font entièrement partie de l'AVENTURE !!! et en plus, avec le recule, ils font sourires. Bon week-end à vous deux! Marc
I've started doing small vol-biv adventures in my local area. thanks for keeping my stoke up=] my only critique is that this film should have been 2 hours long. lol so good!
NICE PLACE AND LIFE:)I like the white mountain background. it complements very good to the green landscape. but i dont understand what Alain said but i think it is funny. especially the when he imitate the voice of the goats.
Genial ! Beau montage c'est un régal a regarder ! J'ai bien déliré sur l'usage de la Kolibri, qui penchait à moooooooort en arrière, avec la juppe meme pas fermée -_- Et sérieux vous avez pris quoi pour etre aussi lourd ? !! :D
le truc c'est que pour décoller en sécurité nous ne pouvions pas nous charger derrière les jambes , mais l'idée est Boone avec un system de poulies peu être :o)) mais bon c'était déjà pas mal lourd :o))
super video that hints at how tough it really is. 26kg packs? immense! Thanks for sharing your journey. You've got Gopro Hero 4s - get steadyXP to plug into the back. So much of your aerial footage suffers from Warp Stabilizer (added by your editor) instead of what it could have been with an ultralight addon.
Yeah.... well... if you would have checked the raw footage, dude!.... Non watchable 😉!!!! Definitely need some warp stabilizer, although that makes some weird effects on the shot. I believe that the #7 will fix a bit those stabilisation issues indeed. Anyway thanks for your feedbacks!
epic. nailing it. keep creating content from your soul.... And one Logistical typical gear question; why was your pod on your pod harness opening? I was just considering getting that harness.
Hi Aaron, sorry for my late reply and thanks for your comment! I thing the pod was opening slightly because we didn't tighten the strap enough and also because one of the days shown in the video Alain forgot to close the pod buckle. After some adjustments we don't have that problem any more and I can totally recommend the Kolibri for this kind of adventure. Happy and safe flights! ;-)
Love paragliding videos! Is there a longer movie to download or DVD?? Would like to purchase & support Guillaume, Christina and Gypaetes Alain! Thank you for sharing the beautiful people, the flying, & a beautiful country!
Thank you, that's very kind of you! Unfortunately there's no longer movie, but we'd be honored if you share the movie with your friends and subscribed to our channels ;-)
Excellent Vid. Thanks for sharing a different part of the world with us! Paragliding looks awesome, but don't you worry about the chute collapsing or the cables getting tangled? Isn't hand gliding safer? Thoroughly enjoyed your video. Thanks again!
Haha that's a good point, It's true that collapses are an objective issue, but with skills and experience, you can deal somehow with it. Hanggliding doesn't collapse, but the landing is more complicated (you need a bigger landing field) , and it's way much heavier for a bivy flight!
@@GuillaumeBroust Haha. Bivy. I learned a new word! Yes, it's definitely harder to carry around a hang glider on your back. lol. I need to get out more.
;-) And the cables are attached at both ends, so they don't tangle as much as they would if one end were lose ;-) I guess it's like learning how to drive a car, just more fun!
looks like you guys prefer advance brand wings? what brand you recommend for ppg? so many choices out there, hard to decide. i want the safest you can buy, wing collapse proof at its best, if such a thing? love you video, what brand is the best of the best for safe beginner flying?
the best is to take advices from a paragliding school. It's not the brand but the homolgation (EN-A, EN-B, EN-C...) that makes the wing safe. If you take a wing EN-A, it will be very hard to collapse!!
Beautiful footage and great vibe. But as a fellow pilot, with no vol biv experience I have a question though: how did you get caught in 4 days of rain? Should have seen the onset of depression even in the most basic forecast right? no reliable forecast for that area?
Yes that was basically it - the only provider of a SIM card that we could get as foreigners didn't give us internet coverage for the region we were in, so most of the time we weren't able to check the forecast ... and the few times we could check forecasts they were very basic and not reliable flying-wise.
@@christinakolb7971 thanks for responding! Really great video. I'll include it in my playlist we show our students about the beauty (and downsides hehe) of flying

Great video! Would love to make a similar adventure with a sailplane. But I guess the outlanding and launching possibilities are not so good there?
In the Garm valley there should be plenty of landing opportunities, but you might have to check out things with the landowners and especially with the local authorities before you take your material there, as the sailplane doesn't go unnoticed. Then again the country is quite small, and with a sailplane you can go so much further than with a paraglider, maybe have a look at some of the bigger places in the vicinity?
