PWC Switzerland 2024 - Task 4 (120 km) (subtitles/napisy)

Friday, 10th of May. Task 4 of 2024 Paragliding World Cup event in Grindelwald/Interlaken. Finally we have a weather good enough to take off from Grindelwald-First (2137m) and to fly a long 120km task through the high Swiss mountains.
The start from the air is set at 13:00.
I've added some comments in subtitles to describe the scenery, the situation on the race and my thoughts.
I recommend to set x2 speed unless you're really a connoisseur of long paragliding videos.
There's no music. I think • System Of A Down - Tox... is a great choice as background but I don't feel like spending several extra hours of finding 1hour of soundtrack, re-editing the video to add music which eventually will be banned because of copyrights.
I use DashWare to add an overlay with basic data: altitude, vertical speed, horizontal speed and a map.
Please comment if you like it, of if you don't like it - any suggestions what I can do different are appreciated. I hope that my next videos will be better and better!
Big thanks for all the pilots I was flying with. That was my first PWC - a really special event for me. It was a true honor to fly with you, top level world class pilots, that I used to recognize from magazine articles, paragliding news or podcasts. Thanks for safe flying, even in the oddest places and tough conditions. I really enjoyed it!
Big thanks also for all the organizers, especially for Martin Scheel, and for people helping with this tricky launch.

Great flight! And the most insightful comp hyperlapse I have seen. Film rate, telemetry, task map are collectively superb. I could really feel the tension after the lake crossing at the second to last turn point!

hey super cool video and makes a task very entertaining to watch! Thanks alot

Najlepszy film jaki widziałem o zawodach. Dzięki :)

[@psykoheiko9715]

Amazing, how much patience is necessary to fly successful such a contest. Thank you for the awesome video.

Excellent video, thank you for sharing.

awesome,thnaks, want some more.

[@FamAndre-ti7fe]

Awesome video mate, if the side map could zoom in when getting closer to tag the waypoints would be great to appreciate the effort to get some of them 😅

[@FamAndre-ti7fe]

And since 2x speed is recommended, leave longer the subtitles please so we can read them at that speed 😅

[@HobbyPCler]

Thank you very much for sharing! Wonderful video.

I've realized there are subtitles just after watching the whole thing. Anyway, a spoken narration instead would be cool. Previous HUD was better. Keep creating them.

[@gajcz]

Sorry about that, I've just added info about the available subtitles in the title. I'm trying to figure out if these comments are actually anyhow useful.. For the time being I've added them only for the first 5 minutes of the video and I think I would add some (less frequently) for the next part. It's much convenient for me to add comments incrementally, depending on my availability, and being able correct them anytime. I have a feeling that full 1 hour voiceover would take me weeks of recording and editing, which I may not have. I'll try to do it though someday with a shorter video. I'm experimenting with "Speak Subtitles for KZbin" widget (chromewebstore.google.com/detail/speak-subtitles-for-youtu/fjoiihoancoimepbgfcmopaciegpigpa), so you can focus on the video, not on the subtitles. Something like that would work for me, regardless the playback speed". What do you think? Thanks for your feedback! :) I will go back to the previous way of displaying data. It seems that even if it takes more screen space, you can get a better feel for the altitude and the vario readings, I guess.

[@kuba100]

I'm not a fan of the ai voiceover idea. Why don't you try to record your uninterrapted commentary while watching the video "live" and add this as an audio track without editing? It might be not polished, which may be a good thing.

[@gajcz]

@@kuba100 oh, I didn't know it's possible to add an audio track independently. That would work, thanks.

[@kuba100]

@@gajcz I meant before uploading the video. As a last step of the production.

[@edwardconover4728]

Such a great video! The map and basic flight info overlays were very much appreciated. As an intermediate pilot just getting into comps this was really educational. Thank you for putting the time and effort into putting it out.
