After the (by now infamous) vulcano jump, Valery Rosov again made the Russian media. This time with a (BASE gear) wingsuit demo-jump from a hangglider.
For skydiving standards (which technically, this is)...yea..its a lowpull..;)
If you need to see less than 4 seconds of canopyflight to qualify as a lowpull, than that says more about your standards than it says about our naming conventions ;)

Where was the paraglider? Where was the low pull?
ReplyDeleteI saw a hang glider and a pull high enough for a decent canopy ride. Or is WWWN now operating with the "if it bleeds it leads" approach?

and paraglider/hangglider...non-native speaker and 2AM updates also dont always make for the most intelligent posts ;)
ReplyDeleteNot my standards, but Valery's. I'm sure he thought in this video he was pulling "really high", compared to the volcano stunt.
