Awesome :-))

That's what it's all about. I had a smile on my face watching that the entire time.

The Euros are so far ahead when it comes to Volbivouc and figuring out these awesome adventure sport combos.

Here in the states we have what maybe 7000+ paraglider pilots and Europe has something like 30,000 or so in France alone.

Very, very cool and incredibly brilliant.

That ain't fair! And then they had to go into the village and eat some
crappy French food and drink some crappy French wine. Poor sods...

Very cool! So did they pack two canopies, one to fly in/out and a smaller one for the descent?
