Paraskiing from Mountain

[Howie655321]

Very skilled though I'm sure he has done this before

[OMfgALEXZ]

don't the skis get all scratched up? it looekd like they touched the rock alot.

[XxHolyPoptartxX]

The parasails seem to give wayyy too much lift, aka mostly flying and no skiing, might as well parasail down

[poweredparagliding]

ParaSAILS?

What is being used in the videos is FAR from being a Parasail...those are very technologically advanced 11 sqm Paragliders.

Nothing even close to Parasails!

i want to try this some day sounds like fun.

[playaplaya4312]

cazy man....NICE!!

[UniversalBrother108]

amazing, this doesnt seem very safe at all though. That would be completely addictive I imagine.

[slurpanator]

i was pretty close lol. that was just my best guess based on D=R*T distance= Rate * Time and i overshot the guess on the base of the mountain too. lol. my initial calculation was much closer to the truth

[poweredparagliding]

Yeah pretty close...only about 3,000'/25% off...lol

[slurpanator]

what mountain is this on? i did a rough math estimate that he was going 50 mph (seventy feet per second) or so for a total of at least 184 seconds. that would mean that the mountain range was at least 12,880 feet tall not including the unseen landing which would have lasted for about another min and a half. guess for mountain height is 16,000 ft

This was on the Eiger which is a notable mountain in the Bernese Alps, rising to an elevation of 3,970 m (13,025 ft.)

wow, this is amazing!

[jpmwetzel]

that is so ridiculously insanely intense.

[parkourkid84]

I am truly impressed. So you can actually steer it(?) cool.....

[poweredparagliding]

Oh yeah absolutely!

What a fantastic video. Great footage and great soundtrack. Looks like lots of fun. Thanks for posting.

[CoasterCloud]

So fun. Nothing usually interests me, such as kite surving, etc. But THIS video really interested me !! Best combo sport I've seen.

[ioioe]

Oh holy crap. Thats awesome.

[bonwittspoo2002]

Could you do this at the top of a ski resort or would they ban you?

[poweredparagliding]

I don't see why you shouldn't be able to do it.

You may want to avoid crowds though.

Possible negative attention is never a good thing.

[RuudJH]

Eiger NF.

[StrateauX]

Oh my, that's a very insane sport O_O Must be an awesome experience

[zisurs]
