Great vid and cool music Matthias, thanks. This is one of the youtube gliding vids that exited my nephew enough to have a go at gliding. ( he's a powered flight man/boy mainly)

Cheers

People have asked about the song that i used for this. It's my own, the song's name has changed and is now "Sweet Dreams'. More of my music is going to be made available through the usual channels this spring/summer (finally).

[stickris]

The music goes perfectly with the video, what's the name of the song? I cant find anything when I google matthias mederer.

[stickris]

lol, just put 2 and 2 together... have you made any of your stuff available online?

[munyones]

I think that Mereder is himself ;-)

(the video poster I mean)

This reminds me of a similar show by a visiting hotshot aerobatic pilot from Europe. I can't remember exactly which year (between '93 and '96?) but I was living in Japan and was a member in a gliding club at Sekiyado. After two inverted passes like that - on the second flight the pilot managed to overstress the wings and the Japan-made B-4's wings were toast. Wrinkled along the spar line from root to tip. Very sad and at the same time impressive.....embarrassing too.

Nice energy management for a lunatic.

[DavidCousins]

Rob, that's harsh. He's been doing this since he's 14.

Thats a very small distance between an asshole and a pro who knows what hes doing...

[glpxt]

In my book, even a pro who knows what he's doing qualifies as an asshole when he goes this close to the ground.

[Brusini]

A pro is the one who's still alive after doing that. The asshole is the one who's not :)

[Essilemnenortiz]

the asshole is the one taking others to death with him ;) and if u think this was close you mightn't have seen old vids of pros in the past ;) one was so pro he ripped off his tail... (and survived^^)

[loepie123]

lol i wanna see those videos :)

but what i tried to say... its not a that hard to do (i think i could do it myself) but the risc is just to high... its not an artist but a deardevil

[Passaero]

I wouldn't even try it with my model airplane !!!
