Hey Nick, nice effort flying Mt Agung. I flew off there myself 2 days ago and now totally appreciate the effort getting up there. I had a win with weather and was able to land on the beach. Such a great feeling of achievement
I bet you're getting a more interest as the eruptions begin to escalate. Would love to use your footage on a youtube video about increased volcanic activity. Beautiful footage. Dave
thanks. I would say the face I flew from is certainly steep enough, but there is a lot of loose rock so you would have to choose your spot carefully. And I guess it all changes with the wind....
You landed in the crops with plenty of fallow fields to land in. Error number one. Hope you paid villagers for this mistake. They live on what they grow.Error number two. Flying with a camera attached to the top of your helmet is not smart, especially in any thermals. Have fun unhooking your lines from your camera, after a collapse. Read up on the number of accidents, including deaths, due to camera mounted line entanglement.
Last week I was there. The place is amazingly beautiful. I spend a whole week there. Nice adventure bro👍.

Awesome
How long is the hike up? Especially for someone that can parahike, but is slow?
awesome video dude :)
What's the best time of the year to fly that volcano?
July-August with no eruption ;)
Tried a similar mission a few years ago but to windy to launch. How many knots on launch ?
it was perfect, maybe 5-10kt by the time I took off
Doesn't get better than that.
keren..
what is your glider?
that was an Ozone LM5

Why are you so angry? ;-)
@@TaskSwitcherify I wondered the same thing lol
I mean if he didn't know then maybe he didn't know so that seems a little judge heavy Martin
