My first Vol Biv | Para Camping

I have been wanting to make this happen for years now. Working up the skill level to top land and keep it safe. Up until this adventure I had only watched others para camping on youtube. Nik and I launched around the evening glass off. I felt like I caught the last thermal of the day and we made it to our destination. When we woke up in the morning it was amazing. We woke up in the clouds, then we hiked up about 800ft and we were above the clouds! Hope you enjoy this as much as I did!

Anyone who doesn't want to wait to spend $$$ on eBay for that vintage mocha pot, there is a modern version on Amazon. Esbit Stainless Steel Coffee Maker for Use with Solid Fuel Tablets

[@NikHawks]

Wow! Beautiful views and an awesome video!

[@paraglidingtalk]

Did you see what I did with your launch at the beginning?

[@jirirutner776]

Robert Michiels you edited my launch so I wouldn't like like a total amateur, thanks! Although I couldn't tell what you guys were saying.

[@paraglidingtalk]

jiri rutner i actually played it backwards. If you look carefully, it was actually you dropping your wing on the ground. Lol

[@jirirutner776]

Aha

[@dreambigTV_original]

Love it Robert...your a good pilot! Vítek

[@aethon6335]

[@scottreuse1487]

[@nickbraun2488]

[@kevincanfly]

That was a dope cdv! I really want to get back down there and come fly with you guys!! It’s always smiles and good times!! Love it!! Keep up the good work buddy!!

[@balkan_pil0t]

I always wanted to do some fly camping!

[@paraglidingtalk]

Sup homie! Long time to see.

[@balkan_pil0t]

Robert Michiels Not much flying these days, too much rain :-( You got any more fly camping trips planned? How about camping on the “S” by Soboba?

[@YankeeinSC1]

Like one of "The Adventurers" told Anthony Vella, (paraphrasing) "after he flew around for a while, he got bored with just flying. He realized these machines unlock adventures! "

[@BobThePilotN4WFH]

Loved the adventure. I wud hv parawaited enjoying that view till I had to rtn. I might do some research on poisonous critters of the area before running through the brush. Also I assumed you slept in a tent? Cross country with overnights. America needs a RedBullxRockies etc every six months.

[@ColoradoMikeC]

More of this!! Some redbull X-alps action camping style!! get out there and mix it up with Paul and Chrigel!!

[@JohnnyFaber]

Dude! I am dying to try that! paracamping volbiv whatever is just the pinnacle of badass. Race Bannon would be green with envy lol! You video the flight home?

[@paraglidingtalk]

Thanks for watching Johnny. I parked the Jeep at the base of the hill at the bailout. Then I just drove home. 🤙🏼

[@JohnnyFaber]

@@paraglidingtalk Coolest camping trip ever.

[@MarkHuneycutt]

First

[@kevincanfly]

Mark Huneycutt that riverside landing was sweet!! Can’t wait to see some more of Korea and your experience there. Keep them coming along I dig it!!

[@MarkHuneycutt]

@@kevincanfly will do!

[@StanBarankiewicz]

That was cool. How did you sleep? Were you guys warm enough? What did you eat? Power Bars? Details, we need details.

[@paraglidingtalk]

Sleep was light. Nik got a couple burritos for dinner and we had some paleo treats for breakfast. It was pretty fun. I did get bit by a spider or something and it was pretty itchy for like a week.

[@comefpvwithme.9807]

Awesome. Hope it's not your last.

[@David65702]

It's hard to carry a 12 pac and Ice chest isn't it? then you have to carry your empty's back nah not worth it lol. Some cool views for sure. Thanks

[@ClarkKent-kg6tl]

You have to send me a text next time you do this. I want to buzz you guys at 5:30 in the morning! A little wake up call

[@PaulinTaegu]

Something magical about spending a night on top of a mountain. I know he must have special camera gear, but check this guy out! kzbin.info/www/bejne/qqm5eGeBjr-sqs0

[@PaulinTaegu]

Congratulations! Before we know it you'll be applying to compete in the RedBull X-Alps. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bqOtiZuCfbKInKs Maybe Chrigel Maurer with retire and let someone else win by then?
