Hanggliding is not a crime

[@vistaworx634]

As a former hang gliding pilot and TV cameraman, I'd like to say this is by far the best hang gliding video I have seen. Very nice!

[@davidherringgo]

Beautiful Gliders Thanks for sharing . The Dolomites are wonderful. I would love to fly there. I have flown Telluride , which is quite spectacular too. Looking out over all the peaks is magical.

[@dkjens0705]

Gorgeous mountains and landscape, what a place to grow up or live and fly. I flew in Southern California from late 80s to late 90s. I had a 120 miles/190 Km XC flight in Owens Valley, 7 hours in the air reaching 17,300 feet/5,240m altitude. It was a long and joyeous drive back to Ridgecrest with fellow friends and pilots.

[@CharlieKelloggPilot]

Beautiful setting and production. Not to mention some of the best shots of Hang Gliding I have ever seen. And what a difference a helicopter makes. Makes me miss the mountains even more.

[@lenkokovach8236]

What a contrast: beautiful man flying around fantastic mountain like an eagle, and linking it with ugly, loud noise!

[@mellowmoods420]

Beautiful video! The Dolomites are on my bucket list of places to fly... Thank you for sharing!

[@wingnutzster]

Beautiful soundtrack, unfortunate to have an English title but the full documentary in German, ignoring that the soundtrack, flying cinematography, scenery, and subject put this up there as one of my favorite YT uploads ever. I am in the refinement and proof of concept stages of a collapsible, single, place rigid wing glider made extremely lightweight from affordable materials unlike anything currently flying but drawing on the science of types like the Swift, Icarus, and my first glider turned ultralight the Egle XCR. Having gained some experience speed flying skydive kit down hills and mountains whilst all the while dreaming of my rigid wing I realized I need a super lightweight kite collapsible enough to be hiked up the mountains and slopes with great glide performance able to thermal but optimized for proximity and low-level ridge soaring. What I came up with solves several problems of current designs and meets most of the criteria I set out to achieve, as a career artist with an aeronautical engineering qualification and background the emphasis was to achieve all of that in something that looks good. I am lucky that modern aerodynamic concepts like blending, variable camber and aeroelasticity all lend themselves to sexy good looking craft it was then a case of employing the technologies and science that applies in a seamless, sexy high-performance craft that will not cost the earth to manufacture and maintain and can be prototyped without expensive specialized resources. I am so excited - see you ion the sky!

[@lotzoso]

Wow! I am a novice. I fly out of Wisconsin towed by an ultralight plane. I've never even flown a glider without a kingpost. I can't even imagine the mountain scenery much less the stunt flying by the Red Bull guy skimming mountains and doing loops. Amazing video!

[@budoraclenomoreharper]

Thanks for your lovely video. I don't fly Flex-wings anymore, but I once did. I flew in the skies of western Canada from 1975 to 2003. There were some beautiful scenes below me. I once rose above MT Robson. Audios about flying stories to share "A pilot's tale," "Last flight of the OVR," "Flight over MT Robson," bud oracle, but my real name is Klaus and I could get by without the subtitles.

[@3pj98]

Fantastic, what incredible shots! Thanks for putting this where people can see it.

[@kathleenmckeon9926]

Man, it is always nice to see a Pilot who exudes a Feel For when to Flair. Great Video thanks

[@halaszsas1]

This is a breath taking video! I love it! WildOne!

[@jctoniasso]

Marvelous landscape, it's like in a dream. Realy, realy a great video. congratulations.

[@patchiturbide8244]

!! hang gliding is just a different way to see life , for me the best one ,its another world we see every time we fly . ur video its really awesome . hello from Mexico city !

[@00901901]

Beautiful place, nice song and flight. The HD movie is great too.

[@fearthesmeag]

very inspirational - want to get back into hang gliding again - thanks for sharing!

[@Glide4447]

A perfect movie, breath taking. See You next Year in the Dolomiten again. One of the most fantastic place to fly.

[@Aluminata]

Running off a steep mountain side with a hang glider in no wind conditions is the ultimate leap of faith. The sensation is of forcefully holding a coupe of bicycles in the air above your head and scampering head long down an impossible incline. Only when the wing begins to fly can you begin to gather some confidence you are not about to plummet to your destruction. With high performance hang gliders this requires so much more potentially suicidal galloping - and so much more speed before the wing even begins to lift its own weight off your straining muscles.

[@index7787]

Lol, you can edge launch from a standstill, these guys have. The hill was like any ramp launch. They were loaded halfway down. I find steep hills like this easier even.

[@davidherringgo]

Beautiful filming and music.

[@jocagarcia45]

I am a Brasilian Hang Glider Pilot, this vídeo is Amazing!!

[@andromeda1923]

Thank you for this great video.There is only one word that I can say, mafnificient!!You are big talents.I was looking for this video impatiently.Man is becomin loftly while he is watching this video.This video must taken short film in Oscar year in 2012.

[@malimetterorg]

Wunderbar! Schoener Platz zu fliegen.

[@waltergiordani]

Bellissime immagini e orti emozioni, grazie! Walter

[@andysolution62]

sehr tolles Video, man fühlt sich da als Südtiroler gleich mehrfach angesprochen & geschmeichelt -- habe euch als reiner Modellsegelflieger am Hang immer bewundert - egal wo - manchesmal gab´s beim Kreisen sogar Zurufe wie: "dorten gehtz - da hinten eher weniger...!" ecc... Für mich sind & bleiben die Drachenflieger die Könige der Lüfte - ohne wenn & aber....

[@DanielTsosie]

Awesome movie. Beautiful location.

[@SkanesDrakFlygKlubb]

Congatulations, fantastic movie!!!

[@kimbokoltoft]

GREAT Video!!! Awesome mountains, hope I get the chance to fly there one day Have Fun

[@mohyolkbouchra3907]

[@CraigRidley1]

[@strueblood]

This is the best hang gliding video ever!!!!

[@Pedrao67]

Great video!!! Nice place!!!

[@v.e.7236]

Hell no, hang gliding isn't a crime, its a passion! I've been flying since '77, when I was still in high school and have over 2K hours clocked and just over 200 hours in paragliders. Flight is life!!!

[@BjarteEkrheim]

Only one thing to say, Wooow ... Awesome movie. I would liked to been a bird again. Greetings from ex-pilot ...

[@waltergiordani]

FAVOLOSI !!!! GRAZIE!!!!

[@LZmiljoona]

This is just incredible! Fantastico! I guess I'll have to learn hang gliding instead of paragliding next summer then...

[@delta_yeah]

Did you? 6y ago I was commenting here about learning. Just found the comment again, learned in 2019, 2y flying now.

[@nerimdaitis]

Wonderful! Angels!

[@mrdeplorable6262]

Thank you for the great views.

[@stealhty1]

Best Hang Gliding video I had EVER SEEN

[@ericoschmitt]

This is amazing! I wish I have the chance to hang glide someday. Pure magic!

[@ericoschmitt]

GUESS WHAT I DID IT! BEST THING EVER!!!!

[@delta_yeah]

Here are some of my flights!

[@ThaFacka]

Gewaltig. Bester Film übers Gleiten mit Drachen ever.

[@ztom6654]

Aquila... John denver, eagle and the hawk...🌪️🕊️🦅

[@ranobertho]

insane!!! greetings from Mexico

[@BlueSkys73]

Great Video!

[@ivankolima4948]

Das ist Fantastisch!

[@mitchellmcaleer2969]

envious of that auto spin feature from the base bar. I was never able to get WW gliders to spin easily or consistently.

[@solomonpilot2510]

wow what a freedom , I am going 2 try it once !

[@delta_yeah]

Have you?

[@yoshyoka]

De vel pai, per tant che tu sgole l'é semper n'emozion veder i nosc monc' da l'aut. Bona!

[@alexeipachecoborgesrighett6336]

[@engscott78]

Beautiful

[@AcrodesignerLNSNI]

Perfect.

[@sinabastami]

This is a good video. Good job. I agree that the sound has to be improved, especially the song Sweet Emotions which is skipping. Other than that the images are great, the narration and graphics are good. Looking forward to more videos. Thanks friend!

[@PetrPolach]

Bravo!.... !!!!

[@malestarmarak2818]

Wow beautiful, I from India.

[@mirzamukim3736]

Super.. Perfect

[@SanDiegoHangGliders]

Great video! If ever in San Diego look us up and we can show you around our flying sites.

[@joseluismontes569]

Pretty Good Hang Gliding video thanks for share....nice

[@yolandazeiter-ritz3079]

Wunderschöner Film. Imposant diese Bergwelt! Habt ihr schon mal den Aletschgletscher, den längsten Gletscher der Alpen von oben gesehen? Auch imposant! Das kann ich euch sagen. Besuchen Sie das Wallis mit seinem Aletschgletscher! Yolanda, die Frau eines ehemaligen Piloten.

[@thehoova1]

Nice Video.

[@RecordableID]

It's settled, I need to try hang gliding!

[@delta_yeah]

Have you? I wrote a comment like this 6y ago and finally learned in 2019, flying for 2y now

[@PetrelliGreg]

Superlativo !

[@manometre]

Incroyable ,vous êtes des dieux mes amis ! HAMTAÏ

[@ElFabiator]

Scary launch @ 6:22 ! Lucky Guy!

[@2008francesco]

[@Sam1986E]

ich bin sehr beeindruckt! mensch ihr seid ja so gluecklisch weil ihr genau wisst was ihr macht und es ist ein grosser traum fuer viele leute das zu tun was ihr tut. gruesse aus den staaten.

[@georgebushara1815]

Immazing, love hang gliding

[@DerPhile456123]

Love South Tirol!

[@flymovies]

Hi surf902, thanks a lot for your comment. Well, almost one year after making the movie, I believe there is a lot to improve in terms of videography and I would like to swap the music as well. This might be done in a new project until summer.

[@montyedgar6409]

flymovies I loved it! As a pilot, hang glider and airplane, and also a German language student, it was fantastic!!!

[@montyedgar6409]

Please don’t remove the subtitles! I loved it as is!!!

[@lestercruse5217]

Hi, great video - nice clean wings, what make and model are they? - cheers

[@flymovies]

Benito & Kestin sind die Künstler.

[@kasper125]

GREAT MOVIE! Is anybody know what is the name of this German song in the middle? Under the title at the end of the movie I can not find it.

[@thomasprugger9219]

Bitte mehr von diesen Videos!!

[@DXWXMX44]

well done video

[@davidgibson4143]

Awesome!! beautifully done. Try SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL

[@Liger._King]

That music @ 4:09! Oh my goodness, it's so sensual! What's the title, please?

[@Fredofly50]

Trop !!

[@jammerwhite]

What type of camera did you use on the hang glider....model?

[@onecheman]

It's there a video about this song? I find really few videos about this nice group

[@frontbum1000]

what you talking about the music is quality. what is the song at 8:40? this video makes me want to start hanggliding!

[@tadams1111]

I cannot even describe how much i want to do this

[@adolfoparihuanca1414]

ME ENAMORE DEL ALA DELTA

[@redarchibald22]

Che regalo.....

[@sanyapinshine3410]

wow!!!! very very beautyfull. where?

[@clapetto]

Where can I learn for a hang glider licence (If there's one), is it the same if I go to the gliders' course?

[@ThaFacka]

great production, free as one can be while hanggliding. tracklist anyone?

[@DRAGOKOREL]

Nice!

[@federicosuarezaleman2323]

Mi mayor deseo desde pequeño es volar en ala delta, algún día lo haré....

[@flymovies]

To all the German spectators: I know this movie has been blocked in Germany (only) due to GEMA-constraints although I did severe research to prevent this happening. Sadly, all music-violations are still in full length available on youtube with other users. Now, I don't want to start a discussion about music rights here, I still believe this movie is covered by the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, but as a solution, you soon will find this movie under my new channel "flymovies" on vimeo.

[@pinguimpinguim5554]

é um crime mesmo não conhecer um lugar destes

[@rakausa]

where did you learn hang gliding?

[@TiberiuMCioci]

Awesome. What hanggliders are u guys flying?

[@super6-416]

Probably a wills wing t2c and the other I don't know if it is an Icaro laminar zx9 or another t2c.

[@Simon-xi8tb]

I thought 4 friends went hang gliding and came back with a ticket!!

[@renatomoreira5806]

😁😁😁😁😁

[@georgeg.p.8545]

wow. you must have had spent thousands of euros on helicopter video shots to get these beautiful adventures on film. So many camera angles, probably so many tries until you've got the best images

[@no-WARussia]

не могу понять что это за дельтаплана чей производство ? что за модель дельтаплана и где можно в интернете посмотреть их стоимость ? Они прямо как крылья птицы и кажется как будто бабочка летает,очень впечатляет !

For all those who can't see it, please go my channel on vimeo (flymovies). There is only one video so far so you can't miss it ;-)

[@bshshf]

super video gruß son der segelflug sektion :-) was haben eigentlich moderne drachen für gleitzahlen und Vreise?

[@p33092c]

R.I.P. Guido. Now you can fly without an hangglider.

[@bertold12345]
