Friday, 10th of May. Task 4 of 2024 Paragliding World Cup event in Grindelwald/Interlaken. Finally we have a weather good enough to take off from Grindelwald-First (2137m) and to fly a long 120km task through the high Swiss mountains.
The start from the air is set at 13:00.
I've added some comments in subtitles to describe the scenery, the situation on the race and my thoughts.
I recommend to set x2 speed unless you're really a connoisseur of long paragliding videos.
There's no music. I think • System Of A Down - Tox... is a great choice as background but I don't feel like spending several extra hours of finding 1hour of soundtrack, re-editing the video to add music which eventually will be banned because of copyrights.
I use DashWare to add an overlay with basic data: altitude, vertical speed, horizontal speed and a map.
Please comment if you like it, of if you don't like it - any suggestions what I can do different are appreciated. I hope that my next videos will be better and better!
Big thanks for all the pilots I was flying with. That was my first PWC - a really special event for me. It was a true honor to fly with you, top level world class pilots, that I used to recognize from magazine articles, paragliding news or podcasts. Thanks for safe flying, even in the oddest places and tough conditions. I really enjoyed it!
Big thanks also for all the organizers, especially for Martin Scheel, and for people helping with this tricky launch.
