Looked as Ozone orange as Ozone orange can be, no?

Me kinda want......

This summer the family and I stayed at a great little camp site near Golden BC. Lo and behold it was the landing zone for these guys:
Atitude Adventures

She even said to me "You should do that."

.......me kinda really want now.

You felt totally safe the whole time? I've seen so many extreme vids of tips folding or canopies collapsing t's enough to scare me but then again I don't think I'd be trying to loop myself or stall for the fun of it....

Thanks Marc, I resemble that remark :smilegrin:

Yes Ozone is a major player in paraglide and Gin. I did feel safe the entire time however did happen to catch a near catastrophic take off from the pilot wearing the red helmet and shirt. I cut the clip because I didn't want his mistake being in my video. The launch instructor was screaming at him at the top of his lungs and then yelled at me that he wanted a copy of the video
:lol:

Ozone made paragliders before kites.Many paraglider companies have extended their product range to include kites now.Advance,Gin,Airea,Uturn.... but Ozone is most likely the most recognized by kiters.

10 minutes max. We were the last to come off the mountain but have plans to do a dual tandem jump on a good day for thermals. I will be shooting Jesse with his passenger for the promotional video from another pilot.

:o I don't know if when the pilot said : now run as fast as you can toward the edge, and I'll handle it after that,(or whatever he said to you) if I could have made my legs move! Another awesome video of a great time. BTW, does Tomie have any sisters? :lol: 1st she introduces you to your new home spot, then takes you to jump off a mountain! :thumbup:

Todd, you got to keep this stuff to yourself.... It rains all the time in Seattle, we only drink coffee and work at Microsoft here, :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:
Nice ride huh? Sorry it was only 10 minutes, should have been much longer. And sorry you had to walk to the top and not ride on the truck, next time.
One of the local hot spots, used to hang glide there years ago, lots still do. Kind of unnerving, can't see the landing area until well after you leave the launch site.
Cheezy, The size for a tandem ride is 40m, singles are from 20m up to 28m depending on your weight.

OH, by the way, WELCOME TO WASHINGTON, Todd.:thumbup: Let me know the next time you go up, I'll film ya from the landing area, it's only 10 minutes from the house.

They had a 6:30 shuttle Jeff be I though... how bad could it be? :lol: I firmly believe that I blew out a kidney a 1/4 of the way in and ready to request a Defibrillator by midway. I'll let you know when the next tandem jump is and when I'll be filming, to have landing footage would be great! Thanks.
