FLY CAMPING :: GLAMIS SAND DUNES

Arrived by air. I can’t tell you how awesome this is. I do enjoy backpacking and love summiting mountains... but being able to fly into a far remote site is a flavor of awesome in its own.
I flew out to a remote location at the Glamis sand dunes with a crew of guys and I had to find a good enough spot that was both far away enough, and allowed me to be able to take off from the next day. I spotted this place and circled it in the air a few time just to be sure there weren’t going to be any surprises and then committed. I got set up about 20 min to sunset and played around on the dunes. No reception in this valley as it surrounded me with tall sandy slopes which I had to jump off, of course. The night was totally calm and enjoyable.
By morning there was a breeze out of the east which meant I had a slight uphill launch (in sand) so I was a bit nervous but the wind scooped me up in a reverse launch and I was back at the base camp by 6:45am to drop the gear and go fly with the others again.

Nice one, Ryan! Super well produced and an epic adventure. 😁

[@ryansouthwell]

Thank you good sir. I hope to do more.

[@wayneeverett8357]

Tucker, why is Everything " EPIC '?

[@mbrunnme]

@@wayneeverett8357 Oh relax.

[@wayneeverett8357]

@@mbrunnme Well, one of the most Over Used words in the world. Most things are not epic.

[@wayneeverett8357]

And I Subscribe to Tucker's channel. So I'm pretty relaxed. Hey Tucker, how come everything is ' Epic " ? From a relaxed viewer. Inquiring minds just wanna know !!

[@SCOUTaviation]

Please please please keep going...

[@aperson2943]

A bit of a mini rant. I have noticed nothing but top notch quality with your uploads. Excellent photography, excellent editing, music, exciting destinations, awesome paramotoring, and it doesn't get the views it deserves. I have seem literal garbage on KZbin that gets tons of views. No creativity, no effort just mediocre at best. Then you have people like you who put a lot into what they do, and deliver a great experience with genuine personality, and where are the numbers? I wish KZbin promoted more people like yourself instead of the same commercial content. Oh well. Great upload as always.

[@fly-guyalberta3605]

I second this comment. Epic video Ryan, this place is now on my 'to do' list. Much success for you in 2019

[@ryansouthwell]

Thank you very much. I have the same sentiments and wish I had better exposure. I struggle with trying to get all fancy with click-bate titles, but can't bring myself to do it. Oh well. Glad you enjoyed it. Feel free to share it. If enough people like it I will likely do them more often.

[@flydubs792]

Ryan Southwell You don’t need no stinkin click bait. Your ppg videos are at the top of the heap. Just keep doing what your doing and those that appreciate this quality of adventure vids will find you. Thanks for your time and effort in putting these together.

[@monicasmyther8976]

Cult Leader maybe music is annoying?

[@EventRentalSystems]

Excellent videography. I’m in NM. Gunna have to get out to glamis soon.

[@Amixem]

This is the best ppg video I've ever seen

[@kyleoglee]

Damn dude! I so needed a Ryan Southwell video in my life. Thanks man! So much quality!

[@ryansouthwell]

Kyle O'Glee thanks dude.

[@RockinRobbins13]

Just one thing. Kyle, don't EVER become this guy. Your personality would be buried in overproduction. Ryan, don't EVER try to imitate the personal intimate style Kyle brings. It wouldn't fit with this slick production style. Different strokes for different folks and you both rock. And neither of you gets the number of views your skills deserve. I can't believe a You Tuber of this ability only has 6000 views on this video. Can't wait to see what both of you do next.

[@TheSpringsteppa]

Life goals! Especially the train surf!

[@Tommyflies]

Somehow just found this channel! Subbed immediately! Awesome flight, awesome edit. ✌️

[@danlewis9280]

This is the first time I’ve 👍, subscribed and rung the bell on a channel I’m seeing for the first time... a most excellent video production of a badass par-adventure. Thanks for bringing it to us.

[@ryansouthwell]

Dan Lewis ring that bell! 😆 thank you.

[@EpicAdventurePPG]

I second this comment! 👍, subbed and rung that bell. There is a first time for everything. Also, as many have mentioned, best video of the year!!! I strive to put out content like you. I will keep working on it.

[@paramotorhead]

Thanks so much for putting this together. There aren’t enough vol biv PPG adventures on YT. & definitely not of this quality.

[@916senna]

That was something special Ryan, don’t you dare stop filming doing your thing!

[@rexmundi6498]

This has to be one of my favorite Paramotor videos!!! 👍🏻 keep tearing up those skies. Hope to see you out there one day!!

[@PPGGORILLA]

This is my favorite video all year! What an epic adventure and quality content. I can't say enough, And of course the editing is spot on. The dude "dragging" the train was unreal!!! I always loved chasing trains with FPV planes but havent seen on while flying my paramotor yet. Please keep up the great videos! Liked, Subbed, and Shared..

[@ryansouthwell]

Thank you!!

[@ohhey539]

[@xcaceuk]

This video is top notch! Would be great to see more videos like this that tell who you are, how you do what you do and of course showing your mad skills in amazing places.

[@ryansouthwell]

This is actually the first "me" video I've made so it was hard to come out of that shell since I am FAR from being an extrovert. It was a big step. And a bit awkward.

[@ICONA5PILOT]

Love it!!!! When can we see more?

[@RoseValleyFly]

beautiful

[@DBartWest]

So much fun. Oh, to be young again.

[@ryansouthwell]

Never too old

[@Les__Mack]

Thanks Ryan for a great video! You give me inspiration to fly in the dunes myself one day! I love it. Keep making the videos :-) I'm up to 59 flights.

[@hankmoody5514]
