Another great High Five event from our sponsors, Carlsberg. The race was probably the biggest yet and as usual we were there to animate it from above. Such a great day, with skiers jumping so high and gliders flying so low….just remind me who has the right of way in a head on situation between ...

CAMELS, GLIDERS AND AUTOMOBILES! This was definately not the highlight of my paragliding career.
