  • what is the name of this song??

  • @Missdoglover95 indian summer by ozark henry he's loads of good sounds

  • i watch this just for the song hahah

  • do you ever fly just by yourself?

  • Annecy n'a pas changé depuis 2006 et ne changera pas de si tôt. C'est un réel plaisir de voler la bas.

    Magnifique vidéo !

  • What type of person gives this video a thumbs down?

  • great vid, but ... 0:23, guy has a raging boner.

  • 0:23 boner XD

  • I have to say that this video has been (and still is) my #1 favourite PG video on youtube. A perfect proof, that you don't necessarily need fancy 1080p video material and well-known track in order to make an awesome PG clip. You just need to love what you do and know how to express it..!

    Totally great clip & music that often saves my day ! :) Good and safe flights to you, guys!

  • Great video with great music, :)

  • Do u fuckin hippies need to relax more? Jesus. Lay off the peyote. Why dont u just get a little nap in there or something. I thought this shit was cool until now, now that I've seen the Jim Morrison version of it. Sweet. Not gonna do this now.

  • Flew for 14 years in Norway. Went for a training course thouugh and they were passionate about safety and airmannship.Risk is up to you.

    My star flights is when one can be up for hours and land as soft as a feather.

    Airmannship and good discernment is important for safe happy flying

  • Had my first lesson today! running and flying 180 feet high off a hill and about 200meters across! Lasted about 2 minutes but was awesome, done it 4 times. Cant wait to pass the course and get my license! Nothing stopping me then!! Hardest part..... Walking back up the hill!!!

  • great video!! :)

  • @ vracan You're a pussy!

  • salut,

    adresse url stp.....

    exellente , video de qualite §§§§§

  • hey, I am just wondering if it is possible for a novice to get towed behind a car on the paraglider... I am into extreme sports, never operated a paraglider and have always wanted to tow a paraglider behind my jetski - now I think a car on a field would be better. Is it possible and how difficult would you think it would be to just hover about the ground like maybe 10 feet? Would you have any suggestions as to how to go about this? Thank a lot

  • @vindicator2008

    I've been paragliding quite a few years.

    Yes it is possible, but what is MORE possible is you DYING!!!

    I can't believe how some people just don't give a crap for their own lives?!?!#

    Happy dying !

  • @vracan

    but how is it so dangerous? Especially when I would be just a few feet above the ground, what could happen? thanks

  • @vindicator2008

    First of all, you do know that a fall from even 10 feet high can paralyze you?! Second, towing itself is VERY dangerous if not done by qualified people (even though it does'nt "look" dangerous). You want proof? here it is- this happened a few blocks from where I live. Since youtube does not allow links here I suggest for you to do a google search with "paragliding accident montreal molson".

  • @vracan

    It tells me that no videos are found if I search for paragliding accident montreal molson? I really just want to know what can happen and how likely it is to happen..

  • @vindicator2008

    No videos just news articles. To explain details would take too long to describe. There is a reason why what you are describing has not become popular!!! Flying is already very unforgiving on mistakes and all you are doing is putting youself closer to injury/death- no doubt about that! I think you are just looking for someone to give you permission to go for it! If you really are serious about this go to your local paragliding school/club and ask IN-PERSON!

  • exellente video

  • Nice work dude - off to Bali for some gentle cliff soaring next week; got my HD Hero at the ready & will upload - no alpine launches but will hopefully match the tranquilety..

  • I loved everything about this video...the music, the cinematography, the subject, the scenery. BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!1

  • i am currently learning in annecy this summer, i recommend, 'les passengers du vent' and initiation course costs around 550 euros but by the end of the week you will be able to take off and land from the top take off. If you can do it off a small hill, in theory you can go off from any height in calm conditions! Freddy

  • This is the best paragliding video on youTube.

  • Nice video I'm off flying now!!

  • How much do these cost? What is a good height to stay at, right above the tree tops/power lines? Is there a back up safety parachute in case something fails? I have been interested in paragliding for a long time. Can you just fly them in the suburbs?

  • It seems that you have a lot of questions and good ones. You must have been thinking a long time before. It's time to act. Paragliding is not as easy it seems and could be dangerous, that's why long time ago I found a paragliding school for a week lesson. That was the right time to learn. Then, try to find meetings, shcools, clubs, hot flying spot and good sunglasses ;) I hope that you'll find pleasure in this activity. Regards

  • @laurentParis i really liked ur video and im intersting in paragliting for a long time but i have 2 questions! can u fly as much u want or after 30' or something u have to land it? and the second one is there a possibility for the ropes to be cutted when u fly?(thats my biggest fear!) thnks

  • @mrmoneymaker05 lessons in england are £3000 for eveything thats with a voucher of £2200 for equipment id love to do it also

  • Wonderful video, makes me want to fly! Oh nice, I got the 420th vote;-)

  • exellent , tres belle video , bon choix de zic , va voir les miennes si ta 5 minutes,la grosse poignee de main de l'aveyron ......( frederic.v@aliceadsl.fr)

  • This video is so cool. A real tribute to paragliding.

    I'm going to Annecy tommorow to fly like a bird..

    Can't wait.

  • This video is so cool. Great Job.

    I'm going to annecy tommorow to fly like you guys.

    Can't wait.

  • ever since I saw your video, I wanted to go to annecy. now I am finally here !!

    only sad thing that it is raining all the time :(

  • thank you for this beautifull video!

  • Lovely relaxing video from a fellow paraglider pilot! Lovely!

  • i think if i wanted to describe happiness with a video, i would present this one. (btw flying area is pretty similar to Emmetten, Switzerland. spectacular view, nice wind. lots of smile.)

  • i thought the track is named at sea or ? doesnt matter at all nice vid dont know anything about paragliding but it looks like it was a lot of fun and a beuatiful from up there (:

  • very nice video - thank you!

  • best video about paraglinding on YouTube!

  • cool video, perfect music, good job!

  • I've flown Annecy a couple of times. This is a great reminder. I have not made a video yet of flying at Annecy (but there are a few others at "kidnaproduction") but beautiful video.

  • So beautiful!!!! I can't wait to start paragliding

  • stunning. love it, really want to do this one day

  • @saaamcollins done it nearly shit my self nearly got as far as CP only 4 lessons left and cancelled! hated the feeling of turbulance down into the seat scared the hell out of me 2 much can go wrong for my liking

  • Wow!

  • Great vid , Great music also :)

  • Sehr schönes Video!

    Bravo

    Mschumi333

  • Thanks for posting this great video. It makes a lovely change from all the videos on YT about paragliding accidents!! :-)

  • I wanna do this!

    How old do i have to be ?

  • @Hacker1337hacker

    in germany you gotta be 14 to begin learning it and 16 to get your licence...how the rules in other countries are i dunno but often they are not as hard as in germany...just google around, you'll find some information ;-)

  • The Netherlands is just the same;) You can do groundhandling at every age and start learning it at your 14th. You have to be 16 for your license.

  • signed up for beginner paragliding course next next Sunday, looking forward, even though it'll be just small hill, but that's the first step only...

  • i have seen them all but every time when i take off I enjoy the pure hapiness, after first fligts flying became living for me, the rest of time I only waiting for flying. nice video THX, jack

  • I'm learning to fly right now, but have freaked out watching all the crash videos on youtube.  Videos like this remind me why I'm doing it at all. Thanks

  • That's why you take a right decision to learn first... it's not as easy as it seems and may be really dangerous, like on a motorbike always wear your helmet, and never fly alone first. Fly with friends or schools and never do stupid things...

    Write ever fly on a book. There are different way of flying, find the easyest first. There is not "good" flying man, there is "old" one ;)

    Congratulation, learning will improve your skills and then it's a direct way to pleasure !

  • How old do you need to be to fly alone?

  • @Pier2pie

    30kg in spain.

    seriously.

    unregulated sport, I know a twelve year old pilot who started with his dad.

  • @Astrogumball ... you could also watch videos of car accidents and freak out during the driving lessons... not to say PG cannot be dangerous... but I personally feel much safer up in the air than on the road... :)

  • @Astrogumball I know how it feels.. But after learning the basics and beginning to understand why & how those accidents happens you build trust to the sport, to your wing and to your piloting skills. Knowing your limits and having a good instuctor reduce the risks dramatically.

  • @divinedichotomy That are my words. Exact! (I do paragliding almost 20 years)

  • yeeaah... i'm learning now, to fly like this some day!

    hf

  • I'm hopefully going paragliding next week, and thanks to this video I am now really looking forward to it !!

    merci merci merci!!!

  • wow.. such an amazing video. i'm a sailplane pilot and know how great it is to be in the air but with a paraglider it seems so that you are more free than with a glider.

  • thanx mate

  • This is a great video, congrats! I'd like to learn to paraglide, it'd be a bit different from the usual flying. What is the name of this song? Thanx, Will.

  • Seems to be "Indian Summer", it's showed at the end of the video.

  • If you google "Indian summer ozark henry" (without quotes) you'll get the lyrics of the song at the first entry.

  • Great my little laulau. Congratulation, this movie is amazing. Big kisses on your nice nose may friend

  • Oh, excuse me. i've already noticed that is the title in the end of movie :)

  • great video. There are many videos about paragliding, but this one is the best, i think. It shows what's the best in paragliding. What's tne name of this song ?

  • I did this tandem with an instructor last week in Interlaken-totally amazing!!!

    Just like the film!

  • Absolutley beautiful movie! I´m a man from sweden who think about learning paragliding, especially after have seen this movie! It seems to be really beautiful. Where takes this movie place? It looks like the Alps but I don´t know where. I´m looking forward to your next movie, good bye! By the way; whats the title of the song?

  • my way

  • nice video and music

  • me and my dad are doing that on Thursday, fuck im so exited

  • with training and common sense, paragliding is a safe, relaxing, mind altering experience to enjoy throughout your life

  • I'm doing a Paraglinding school in Italy, and it takes 6 months minimum to take the licence and 1000 euros for the school plus the cost of the paragliding itself... (about 3000 euros with all the accessories..)

    but is the best way to enjoy freedom! :)

  • man thats expensiv

    I'm starting this automne in switzerland and i can get everything for about 2000 euros, apart from a glider I'll have to buy

  • nice video! Does anyone know how much it cost in Euros until one is ready to fly by himself? thank you.

  • :( paragliding is not a poor mans sport, you need money for training, equipment, transportation, and ofcourse health insurance o.O, and ofcourse GUTS AND GLORY :) did i forget anything else? ...hm,.. not sure. but thats almost it i think.

  • Hi man ! I had chance to prefer buy me a 1 week training, then 1 year after bought an old glider, then train by my own reading books, talking paragliding, practicing. actually even with no much money I go with good friends flying. I saw that you went in Torry pine's glideport, I flew there. It may be very expensive. Regards

  • Vidéo admirablement faite fantastique. I'm off to Chamonix flying for the whole month of August and am really looking forward to it.

  • I flew here!!! My first flight tandem! Beautiful......

  • A very nice (and rare) vid that shows that paragliding can also be deep and quiet as a meditation. ThanX for this great vid and be careful smoking near by open paragliders (they don´t like burning ashes)
