I went soaring in Scotland! and used a Contour HD helmet camera to capture some gliding fun. 3 Cirrus gliders in loose formation,a loop, a spin and general cheesy grinning happiness! Music is" We Are The People" by Empire of the Sun
What did I do today? I just cried, it broke my heart to know that you are no more here to share those beautiful views and your personal touch with your titles, comments, your talent in editing and your selection of music. I discovered your channel last year and was planning to make a trip to the south next spring and hoping to meet you with my family. We wanted to tell you personally how much we enjoy your videos. Rest in peace Balleka!
I miss this guy. I shed a few tears when I learned he passed in 2016. I watched this video everyday for months in the morning during 2010-11 to motivate me to go to work so i could afford to fly my own sailplane. I watched it again today and it's been years since i have seen it. It hits the feels. Miss ya Matt!
Beautiful video, just pure magic! I love to watch you waving trough the air just like a feather, without the power of an engine. It's like leaving physics behind and breaking free... Great view of the landscape!
Mesmerizing, as always. Also, as already mentioned, good music choice for this particular video. While I'm no expert on actual flying (just your run of the mill armchair simmer), that was some pretty damn awesome manouvering there! Thanks for yet another awesome video, keep them coming :)
Hi, what a great video - a usefull medicine against the winter blues. Unfortunately several of your videos are locked due to content issues. This summer my son and I made our GPL, and now we are really addicted - suffering winter withdrawal syndrome. We are looking forward to April '11, soaring in La Motte du Caire for two weeks. Keep on posting!
Excellent video!!! I learned to fly in gliders way back (in a S-22E). How long is your typical flight and do you always make it back to the starting point?
Excellent video! I am also using Contour HD (1080i) as well as a gopro hd (1080P) I am thinking of upgrading the Contour to the 1080P (Full HD) version which one are you using? Cheers John
The terrain on take off looked familiar to me, the mountain looked like one at the side of the M6 just south of the Lake District. Some other videos further down make it sound like you are in the South Downs though. ice video though, wherever it is.
@Balleka I shouldn't have watched this....in 8 minutes this video shows all that is best about soaring in a glider..having not flown for several years it makes me want to get back into one and all the chuffing around between good flights seems worth it....better check how my Stemme 10 fund is coming along!
Great video, beautiful! I love this remix of "we are the people" can you please write the full name of this song? I google it but i did not found this song with duration of 8:17 minutes. Thank you.
Best gliding video i've seen. Would it be okay if our Student Gliding club used it for promoting the sport? If so, could you maybe upload it anywhere and mail me the link?
amazing! Well what did I do today? I went gliding too, but in a other Glider (ASK-23) =) I know... It`s a piece of shit in compare with your ASH-25 =). And yes I didn`t fly as near to the ground as you did....... Great vid
