Looking back to this amazing experience in the desert nearly two years ago. I will be returning as a commentator in a few weeks. Hike and fly is an exciting way to make paragliding a sport, but here we added some Dubai glitz.

Found your channel by accident. Looking for info on places to fly in China. I've been living in China 25 years so far, came here for a job in 98, I'm a helicopter pilot by profession and having recently retired I took up paragliding. Learned in Beijing, then learned more in the South Downs of England. I've flown in Hangzhou a number of times, Chengdu, MaCheng and Inner Mongolia, and just came back from 2 weeks paragliding in Bir Billing, India. I see you have flown in quite a few places and are braver than myself. Don't think I would be flying off rooftops in Dubal anytime soon/ever! Anyway just thought I would let you know I'm your newest subscriber. Great videos!

Brilliant mate. Never seen that terrain before. Good to see that building launch even made you nervous - made me nervous watching you.

Dude you did it!! Forget my question on the older video. This building is an epic and scary launch, but lift potential! So surreal flying over such a huge city wow! In excellent company too. This video also answers my questions about mountain flying in the area, thanks so much for posting this great coverage ;)

Thank you, yes it's a pretty special and different experience for pilots more familiar with the Alps!

nice, tbh it wasn't too clear what was happening there when I followed it, especially with the finish event and accidents. Mostly speculations and gossips. Nice to see the tasks from the 'inside'. Pretty cool distraction from the typical alpine H&F races :D

Yes a lot of us were there keen to see something different, and you never know if it will be a one off (it kind of was for me but I'm glad they're running it again!) Looking forward to trying to tell the story of the next one
