Might make landing easier Wonder if that's Queenstown, NZ - looks like it ...

You might be better off strapping a buggy to your bum
I've since done a bit 'o reading into the whole speedflying thing. I think the goal is to not be quite so close to the ground. Close yes.....but not
THAT close that you'd want a couple wheels under you
It's on the list though. Right after....surprisingly enough.....paragliding. Thanks for the tandem temptation video Todd. I better play these cards
carefully with the wife.
I read about it too, and in most cases you have to have paragliding certification and some skills to go with it. Add to that some backcountry ski
equipment and know how. Their chutes are much like ours. They have various sizes from 8 to 15 meters sq. They also have wings with various glide
ratios. Sometimes you want really long glides and others very little like if you want to ski more than fly. I think I'd rather fly anyday and I've
been skiing for 30 years.

Aim low. Reach your goals, and avoid disappointment.
Nice finds! That's exactly what I was thinking. Of course they are using the wing more like a power kite for the most part but there was some "speed
flying" in those.
