What most people don't seem to understand is that 13 days is minimal... you need at least 2 weeks to acclimatise to altitude otherwise you could develop HAPE or HACE at altitudes above 17,000', due to lack of oxygen in the air. When you are doing a sport as radical as this, it would be necessary to have all of your wits about you and you develop hypoxia in under 5 minutes above 12,000'. The effects of hypoxia at the very least make you retarded and drunk to about 0.08...
mmmm....not worth it I think. How about NOT combining the 2 sports, and just do Heli-Skiing, AND BASE Jumping, or Parasailing. 13 Days of hiking for 5 minutes of fun? What if the snow conditions sucked? You'd be super mad. I would not do that, It would be fun if you could do Heli-Skiing and that, instead of hiking half a month up a mountain and getting down it in 5 minutes.
video gave a lot more info then the magazine lol i took a look at it in the library and its full of ads! and its a double issue! (dec/jan) but loved the video!
Well for ur information. I dun go vacation often. But when I do. I dun go to a snowing country. I had only felt natural snow once. In korea back in 2002.
That's what I thought, but I'm sure if you try it, the 5 mins of fun can last a long time. Plus, that's not saying the hike/camp up the mountain isn't fun, because hiking and camping in the wilderness is just as exciting.
i like the beep with his acent sounded so funny this 1 is ##%@ good. lol thats a cool sport but what if you happen to catch a drift by penisula and cant stop....
Wow. I could see how this is fun, but a 13 day's climb is worth 5 minutes of Speed Flying/Riding? I hope it's worth it. :) I'm impatient waiting in line for a roller coaster ride. Hehe.
Yes, and I also want to learn hang gliding. It must be amazing floating on air currents like the birds, uninhibited by the monotonous drone of an engine. The hang gliding video in my favorites list is simply amazing.
Actually this is safer than normal skiing ;)
