Like every year, I am participating in the Chabre Open. It’s a popular fun competition for wings from EN A to C. We started with a French record: 44 degrees C :-). Saturday was a test task. A small route to Veynes. I just made…
Since my beginnings in paragliding, I always have been fascinated by some pilots of my club telling stories about landing on the summit of Mont Blanc in 2012. I was wondering what kind of experience it would be and if I would be up…
Redbull-X-Alps – the ultimate adventure race! I’m absolutely fascinated by this race and I follow it as often as I can on the PC via live tracking. In Switzerland, the athletes had to fly or hike to Davos Turnpoint 6, then continue to the Titlis…

Gemeinsam mit den Sarntalern Thermikhaien und deren Präsident Martin Obkircher organisierte ich zum mittlerweile fünften Mal die NOVA Hike & Fly Days – dieses Jahr im Sarntal. „Wo ist denn das?“ Das war die Standardfrage, die ich fast jedesmal zu hören bekam, wenn ich nach…
Hi Friends from the NPT, many of you asked me to upload the funny videos cheers that those team pilots had sent who couldn’t attend. Well, here we go. As these videos show how muich fun we have, I decided to put them on the…
