That was beautiful!! I’ve been maybe 300’-400’ above cloud base in a rare winter flight in Tollhouse, when cloudbase was just above launch, wasn’t good enough to go anywhere but having clouds above you and below you is such an amazing experience. I would love that kind of convergence flight though!! Some day maybe.

Sick flight. Does this only happen at this time of the year or is it also possible in Jan or Feb?
@zionparagliding3 күн бұрын
@@turkeyphant from mid February till end of March these high flights can happen. Highest cloud base is end of March and some special days in April where you can thermal to 3800m with no converging winds.. You can see in one of my previous videos flying over no landings

Mr Keith! All I used was the Windy forecast and visual reference with the clouds as we fly.. But I'll give that forecast a look next time to see it it's any good 🙌

I didn’t get to see how you packed everything up, but all of your heavier items should be in the center of your back. Lighter items like sleeping bag and clothes that can be compressed in the bottom. Water should be lower in the bag so you’re balanced. Any pack over 40lbs you should consider a frame pack for long distance hiking so it saves your back from hypertension. The weight sits nicely on your hips and your shoulder strips simply hold the weight closer to your body. Hope to do something cool like this in the future!

Nice to see this fantastico vídeo! , en 1992 i flew 8h30 whith my friend Regis Laurent, 212kms from Tocopilla to Iquique, arrive in Iquique at 18h30, doing a lot off ¨wagas¨ on the dunas, it was yet possible to fly 30 or 40 minutas, but too risky cause off no landing place on wiew, and no rescue possible! Join the both next year!!! Tocopilla to Arica!!! 🤣ou Antofagosta to Iquique!!! Thinks a lot ,muito obrigado, merçi beaucoup pour ces trés belles images 🥂🥂🥂
