looks like fun... until somebody hits one of those lift cables or snow making poles at that speed. can see why it only happens in europe... bloody crazy austrians!
too bad you all did not hit the chairlift at break-neck speed, hope this never catches on, bad enough dealing w/ stoned snow boarders on the slopes!!!
looks really funny :D

I get a buzz from skiing down a mountain fast but skiing with the odd bit of flying here and there must be amazing!!
I hope they start to do it in les carroz, samoens area. Great video....................

are these standard size paragliding kites, or are they down sized a bit, I need to start doing this, and I need more info.
Ratzking 4 years ago
no they are downsized.. have seen them doing it and the gliders are definitly smaller than normal ones.
11winkelried11 4 years ago
Those wings are less than half the size of normal paragliders. Also the shape is quite different. (closer to some skydiving canopies)
The sport is potentially very risky and it defenitely makes sense to first gather some flying experience with paragliding or skydiving.
Eighter way, you should start with a rather big and forgiving canopy in easy terrain.

i have asked all the California resorts ( you know the big 7) and all have told me NO WAY in Hell they will allow speed riding a chance.
I may join Johhny Depp and move to France to do this.

Sure you should come in France and ride in our ski resort! You gonna have a lot of fun!... and meet a lot of girls ;) !!
This vid has been made in Valfréjus, which is a crappy resort, Val Thorens or Val d'Isère are definitely the best ones!!!!!
