Awesome adventures! I'm glad you both made it! Your documentary is very motivating and inspiring... I can't wait until the day I learn how to paraglide.
Thanks, Mark, for the kind words. I can't fly solo anymore, but I did get up in a glider once again this year, as I do every year, and had a nice trip out over the glaciers… As a passenger in the backseat, of course.
Excellent video mate. I was Course Director for EX Winter Warrior in Austria I flew every day in the Alps for years . I really enjoyed the video keep em coming
Forgot how good this film is - just watched it again as the perfect antidote to sleet battering off my window here in Scotland! Great story, compellingly told.
Really fantastic. I am paragliding and climbing myself as well. I have also travelled Tadjikistan. But would not dare to do this. You are right Tadjiks are very friendly but distances are huge between villages. If something goes wrong there is no cellphone reception. Thermals are extremely strong. And on top of that you had almost no experience and probably also did not speak russian. Certainly a high risk undertaking…
Truly one of the best paragliding films I have seen! Such great camerawork and an incredible amount of courage, skills and experience. Thank you for sharing your story!
This is awesome! Thank you so much for sharing! I'm 16 years old and I've been flying for about 1 year now. I can totally understand your feelings on your journey! Keep going, always happy landings and take care!
I don't have words to express how amazing this video is, and most importantly i just experience the first tandem flight 4 days ago and just like you i am hooked onto it, all day i am dreaming about flying. Will get enrolled for the training in two weeks. And just like you i have adventure plans. In you I see me, the personality is ditto. You just got a fan from India. Subscribed😊
Fantastic video and really inspiring. I am going to start my training in January in Brazil and I am 58, Brazilian living in London LOL.... i guess it is one of those things, we have to do what we have to do LOL. All the best.
Amazing documentary! Amazing to see how far you've gone in just a year! 17:48 was definitely the scariest moment of the video to me, so close to the ground... Also, that snow bridge!
Only just found this Colin, wow! Thought you were a bit nuts when we met on that SIV course but it's the best kind of crazy! Great editing and storytelling, superb. 👍
Seen this from a Facebook link, expecting it to be a quick short film. Kept me entertained through out, bloody brilliant adventure, great storytelling. And great editing. Bravo, look forward to the next one.
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing your story. I started paragliding a couple of months ago. Got addicted to it. Can't wait to see where it will take me in a year as well! Please continue sharing your adventures!
That was great! THankyou for showing this wow! You guys inspire the rest of us to push the limits and go further than we ever thought possible not so long ago. What a great adventure, cheers!
Spectacular! Storytelling A+, editing A+, and go for it attitude, aye aye!

I flew hang gliders and paragliders for 37 years. That was a great introduction to the sport, thank you
Hi Stewart, I came across your story in XC mag again recently, sobering! - you are not forgotten
Thanks, Mark, for the kind words. I can't fly solo anymore, but I did get up in a glider once again this year, as I do every year, and had a nice trip out over the glaciers… As a passenger in the backseat, of course.

Super video. Verbier was my paragliding birth-place too.
I feel like that was a trailer for one of the most amazing adventure docs ever made. Surely there is enough footage for a more immersive story here??
That prior SIV course....great thinking! Enjoyed it all! Thank you & best of life!
After just one single year of flying you dared to enter such a challenging adventure? Maximum respect.
Welcome Friend! Amazing video. Hope to meet up with you someday.

Jeez, absolutely incredible, no idea how you fitted your balls into that harness 👏
This is incredible while I'm 14 now I hope to get up there soon! I can't say how passionate I am about this while I haven't even flown yet!
Can't believe your pace of progression. Kept it real too. Loved it.
