Ever since the beginning of KZbin i have watched all the hang gliding videos progress. This video is by far one of the best ever to be uploaded.

[@bbingtube]

One of the greatest flights I've watched!

[@fernandoresende3688]

I'm sure you make a pretty good risk assessment before jumping off a cliff, and you obviously are a pro on what you do, but I can't help but think "THAT was a close call". Thank you for sharing these amazing images. Fly safe.

[@Ken_Dalton]

@Mark KennyI think I just saw one of your vids there too. Or maybe it was a guy with same name.. Are u Irish by any chance? Just curious, it's a very common name here an in the uk

[@chriskeenan1]

Absolutely amazing. Not only the skill, but the location. If anyone needs some inspiration for getting into this sport, they only need to look at this video. Thanks for the upload. Keep safe, and happy landings.

[@Xman8184]

Man if i'm having a bad day i watch this and it chases the blues away! Awesome flight and navigation! Wolfgang your the man!!!

[@BobThePilotN4WFH]

Thanks for the ride along. Beautiful country. Excellent vid and layout. Top notch flying and on screen persona.

[@yuriisosa]

Amazing music and flying!!! Great fun!!!

[@nzmeateater]

One of the best vids on youtube, thanks for sharing your amazing flights👍👍👌👌

[@Qartoffeln1]

That moment over the water at 2:08 ... scenery, light, low flight AND funny landing. Man, that was epic. Thanks for all your posts!

[@WomenidoStuntwork]

Wow! That was a nice flight. Thanks for sharing. Excellent video. Stay safe. All the best.

[@thruid3]

"Whew that was lucky' ! Indeed ! Hahahhahahaa ! I would be fine after getting away from that launch ! The walk up to it would freak me out with visions of a foot slipping on loose gravel, a rogue gust of wind at the wrong moment etc ! Nice rig and camera set up. Glad you walked away after floating over that car ! Beautiful flight !

[@craiglelean1951]

Tears to my eyes awesome

[@alexandervanwyk7669]

Bring back my memories as a kid. This is what I started in 79 after finishing my studies and military training.

[@mjhornidge]

bro!! That is awesome. The feeling up there must be incredible!!

[@Davide_sd]

This makes me want to start hanggliding!!! :D Wolfgang, need more uploads!!!

[@gushamilton5188]

DON'T FUCK AROUND AND GO DO IT

[@nicholasplesko533]

I’m thinking about it too, but the gliders seem pretty expensive.

[@saleplains]

go make it happen its a bit expensive upfront but once youre trained up and have a glider its pretty cheap

[@jazsurfer]

@@saleplains ditto!

[@ericoschmitt]

@@nicholasplesko533 They are not. You can find used beginner gliders for less than an iphone. And although 5-10k for a new one seems like a lot, they can last several decades if well maintained. I own a wing made in 1992 still going strong. My main wing is from 2013.

[@nefelibatics]

Unreal Wolfie!! Awesomest speed run ever, what a line!!!

[@yyyf6f6ff]

The scenery beggs to be flown like this! Well done wolfy, epic!

[@gortt7611]

I used to hang glide in the late eighties and you make my hands sweat just watching - please be careful, but holy crap great job :):):):)

[@GrantGrove]

What a great flight. Nice location, perfect.

[@garrykennedy5484]

You have a blessed life my friend. I would ask God to bless you, but that seems like handing you a glass of water in a rainstorm. Love ya brother. Keep safe and stay forever strong.

[@garrykennedy5484]

@тαρ мє αи∂ ѕєχ ωιтн мє Mia I've never flown any large distance. However, you always need to keep a landing zone in sight that you can make a glide to. So you are constantly keeping an eye on the terrain for that. That keeps you familiar with where you were and where you are heading. Also almost everyone flies with a flight computer that tracks your position, altitude, speed, direction etc. Most even have a map like a navigator for your car. You can even plan a flight path that way.

[@Abqman]

so jealous watching this, makes me want to break out the bones! Great flight enjoy your trip

[@cdnskydog]

Wonderful scenery Wolfi. The take off and landing made me nervous. Best wishes, Skydog Bob

[@oktokie]

Hey man, I really like your video on how it brings me excitement over beautiful landscape allowing me to experience professional hang gliding from my couch. This is some great relaxing stuff to enjoy over my evening tea.

[@Cecil381]

A wonderful film. Thank you for sharing.

[@petert8807]

SUPER cool! Best HG video on the planet! You are my hero

[@sotirpopov3533]

Admirations Wolfi, really enjoying your VLOG's, you're doing amazing in promoting our sport, Cheers

[@Showmetheevidence-]

Using your hanglider length, your height and the distance of your shadow.... I calculate that this looked awesome!

[@BlaMac1]

What a flight !!! Man, I don't usually watch HG films but after what I just watched I did subscribed your channel :)! Stay safe buddy!

[@jrfsailing07]

Outstanding video!

[@stevenootenboom1]

That was spectacular Wolfi !!

[@hectorreal8833]

Wolfie!! AWESOME video as always, man. Hope to see you again in Los Angeles during one of our flying events at Windsports. Keep the videos coming-- I love watching your flights before I go flying!

[@azrad888]

What a way to start the day indeed ! Awesome flight.

[@stevehutchesson1321]

Great flight, great footage, looks like a ton of fun.

[@glenncarter2126]

The most epic clip I have seen!!! Spectacular

[@andreavian6777]

Amazing flight.... you surprised me so much!!

[@thomaslohr7574]

Wills Wing baut super Geräte. Bin selber über 20 Jahre Wills Wing geflogen . Von der Leistung der Geräte war ich von jeder Generation begeistert. Tolles Video, 😊

[@user-df5pq4gr7c]

T2C... What an epic wing!

[@hectorvaldesr]

What an amazing video. God Bless you brother, be safe.

[@GavenIsaacs]

Did not think your video's could get any better but this one was simply incredible - thanks

[@rickmaddy3133]

Amazing flight. I'd love to see a track log of that flight.

[@NelsonsWings]

Bravo! What amazing flying machines are HG. I fly only PG, but this really makes me want to move to Europe and fly HG! Hope to meet you in person one of these days at Andy Jackson in California.

[@chrisnorman2888]

This is the best in it's class for video caption of Hang Gliding for the day!

[@AMIGOxM13]

Oh my goodness. This is beautiful 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@johnwagenhals881]

Please take me with you ! I can see why it was your favorite run ..JUST WOW ,,thank you for sharing your journey

[@TheFjordflier]

Wow! Nice launch and exit point. Just as I like it. My last launch was similar to yours, just lower, and not that spectacular. You should come to Norway again soon ;-)

[@Jeremy.Muller]

Another great video!! Thanks again!

[@lionsmusic004]

Oh man, that takeoff!!!

[@KerimWillem]

This is awesome bro!!

[@mephistopheles5327]

[@yevhenleonidovytch7826]

Watching marvellous beauty of mountains along with the stunning flight. What could have been better that that? Being a pilot!

[@robertsiegl8164]

Einfach nur der Hammer!!!

[@jameshoiby]

Awesome run. Thank you! Would love to see a front cam also.

[@johnnylovesannie]

I can almost feel what that was like - thanks Wolfgang!

[@stoffica2]

What a beautifull flight...and end too :D score 10 ;10

[@zaneboz4668]

You wonder human being … that was utterly fantastic! the scenery the lighting the shadows And lets not forget your incredible skill as a pilot thankyou so much Its been 12 years since I last flew my Climax, watching you makes me want to jump all over a new T2-C What a brilliant Vid thank you Brother.

[@francoisnel5253]

Why don't you fly?

[@sunsetinblue]

ohh,man , incredible views and valliant pilot!!

[@joeshmoe7967]

Yup, lucky on that landing. Great flight but coulda broke something easy...these videos get me thinking about flying again, it has been years...used to fly Golden B.C, and know only too well what pounding in is like! - Cheers

[@whisperingeagle]

Iam a trike soaring pilot now because of my ageing knees but flying hg wings scince 1978 i can say that this is such an awesome sport. Last week i had a hugh golden eagle fly over the top of my sail and park right over my wingtip checking my feathers out . I was listning to the eagle and the hawk at the time. Just dont want to come down and land. Great video wild launch. Thx

[@flyairsports]

Beautiful video Wolfi Thanks!

[@jptothetree]

Lovely :) What a spectacular hobby you have.

[@hrbeta]

The scenery is absolutely astonishing.

[@SVSky]

Ahh that was amazing.

[@drachencooly]

Danke für die schönen Bilder mit diesem wunderbaren agilen Flügel. Halte eigentlich nichts von Höhe wegheizen - aber wenn die Kiste so gut gleitet, dass man kaum Höhe verliert :-) Tja die Landung mit Strasse, Auto und Zäunen hätte ins Auge gehen können und auch mit den leichten Turnschuhen seinen Drachen im Hochalpinen Gelände zum Start tragen ist nicht die schlauste Idee - save flights!

[@Toma_Stoichkov]

Insane run dude! :)

[@richarddiamond6258]

Awesome Vid Wolfi !

[@sergeig685]

Lover your video. Love this place.

[@paraworth]

Brilliant landing magic flight.

[@luk3811]

Brilliant flight!

[@alexmarkelov7339]

Man, you barely made it over the fence lol Great video. Hope I’ll see more of your content soon, been a while..

[@pivoroma8064]

yes,yes,yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@videostarish]

Brilliant!, but was concerned your VB rope was going to be snagged on those high platau fences...!

[@0orangejules]

wow , wolf,, thanks so much,, I love your videos... I started to fly in 83.. & I never did anything this much funtastic.. I have new excitement & inspiration .. Jules. ,,, PS , I look up the site on google earth .. to see your flight plan.

[@SaulGood.]

You're my hero, Man!!!

[@christophersmart2731]

Great video and background Music.

[@LU7HQW]

Awesome. No more words needed. BTW, soundtrack list if it's possible? Beautiful selection..

[@wendywhite8652]

1 off your best videos yet........hello from australia brisbane

[@garrykennedy5484]

Jeeeez dude.. That was close on the landing even for you!!!!!!! Glad it worked out bud. Would hate to hear anything bad happened to you. You sure do take your chances. Mother Nature is not forgiving. You have to forgive Her!!! Stay safe bud. Many happy landings always.

[@ThayroneMG]

what good location this video was made this place is wonderful congratulations!

[@thevampirehunter8965]

WOW!,..WOW!,.WOW!,.....FANTASTIC GREAT FLYING HIGH SPEED.

[@danijelkukec9999]

You are the best glider for me

[@FerminFatou]

Thanks. Minute 2 is amazing! And all the rides and cliffs are impressive. Good landing, isnt´t it?

[@chrisbryan75]

This is utterly amazing. I wish you had some way of displaying some data like ground speed, air speed, vertical speed, altitude etc... What speed to you peak out at on these runs? I'm going to guess about 140-160km/hr? Also, how many hours of experience would it take someone to develop the skills to do a similar run without getting in over their head? This is my favorite corner of the world by the way, spend two summers there. Thanks for the great video.

[@mikaelgaiason688]

There's plenty of telemetry programs you can run from a simple phone that will show all that, complete with 3d recording of flight path.

[@chico-de4099]

Sehr sehr sehr geil / freaking awesome. Viele Grüße Jörg

[@rbelatamas]

Incredible!

[@TheCavalari]

Caraca mano!!!! Muito TOP as imagens!!! Parabéns

[@RCnerd74]

[@wolfiflycom]

It really is!

[@lbjgiannisdagoat4713]

Real talk: He is living everyone's dream.👌

[@hanggman]

Nice. What happened to your back camera?

[@BenjaminLothe]

beautiful run !

[@TheLinguistic08]

You should do more videos my friend. They are great and make me want to start hang gliding.

[@WorivpuqloDMogh]

This is freedom.

[@proborder7679]

Du und Matjaz, könnt ihr euch gegenseitig noch toppen? ;-)Ein Hammer, diese Aufnahmen!

[@Slears]

wuida hundling 🤘

[@WeldonScott]

This may be a silly question but, have you ever gotten lost while flying?

[@pietervanschaik1442]

epic stuff!

[@paramotorhilton8227]

I was never interested in hang gliding until seeing your videos.

[@gksstory3346]

Amazing bro

[@mukeshsahani6452]

No fuel, No Engine just wind and you are good to go 😅
