And where is this video?

From way back, it was video of a very high aspect ratio paraglider. Looked like a ribbon in the air. Probably posted in the last year. I've tried searching, but no luck. The end of the video had him landing, I believe the maker of the wing.

Incredibly thin wing that was yellow and black, filmed in switzerland? If so, it'd be the same one, sure wish I could find it again...

Cool panel graphics..... but d@mn wing tip on that looks sketchy as he|| Definitely not a sail for crosswinds.

That's a super high A/R and I agree with Sam, can no way be any where near stable in all but optimal conditions.
