Great video. Great sport. Started in 1967. Solo'd at 16 in 1968. Still gliding in 2023.

If I may ask, what was your reason for soaring? Who introduced you to it? What excited you about it? What was your goal for learning?

Another fabulous demonstration of Jesper’s grasp of cinematic techniques. The subject of soaring is a very challenging one to bring to screen; Jesper’s use of longer focal lengths, and superbly stable pans brings a serenity to the scenes, which personify the art of the sailplane. Bravo!

I love that kind of sky!!!

Wow. det här är så vackert. Segelflygning är en så cool och fantastisk sport. tack för denna fina video.

The stuff of dreams. Great videography and wonderfully well selected music. Thanks for sharing.

MerhlinsPlace Thank you very much😊

Brilliant video. I've had pleasure flights in a glider, what an amazing feeling absolutely beautiful.

what a beautiful film! bring me back to the early 00's !

A beautifully edited video. It certainly made me regret not being able to take my gliding to its full potential. I recall flying sailplanes made of wood and fabric,not needing to refer to the airspeed indicator because all I needed to do was to listen to the pitch of the air rushing through the struts and other parts that created lots of drag .I recall my feeling of near panic when I was sent aloft in a Club Libelle for the first time and experienced silent flight and a fear that I would overfly the tow plane. A very slippery experience as we had no dual seat glass machine to practice in and it was like being put into a formula 1 race car for the first time as the controls were very twitchy indeed. All in all,I had quite a few years of gliding in many types of aircraft and enjoyed it immensely. When I see a video as good as this one, I am taken back in time and recall the good times I had flying gliders. Cheers from Downunder🙂

Hello Aussie mate. I'm 52 and just got my Hang 2 rating after 5 months of hang glider training under aerotow. It's been an incredible journey that I love. I really want to lose about 15 more pounds and learn to do this. Seems like the next logical step for me. I love powerless flight and the serenity it gives you. Sorry to hear you're no longer flying, but at least you are one of the rare ones that have. Congrats on a great experience from your beginnings of wood and fabric to the slippery high performance sailplanes. I envy you and hope I can share the same comment you just made some day. God bless you and yours. If you're from down under, what does that make me in America? Up sideways? LOL

What a beautiful film about gliding Jesper. I shared it on my Facebook page. When I was around fourteen years old I was lucky enough to fly over Sweden to look at the Vättern lake from a Bergfalke at Ödestugu, near Jönköping. I can still be found in the sky in my native country of the Netherlands.

Hello Jesper, I liked your videos and how to edit it, I really liked this glider video, I would love you to make more videos to your glider style ... I love the radio control plane and its world and the real ones always catch my attention. Thank you very much for sharing, greetings from Spain. Jesus.

"If flying were the language of man, soaring would be it's poetry." The splash quote from Condor.... anyone know where its from? This video seems like it'll have the audience who knows ^.^

I could watch sailplanes land all day long. You left me hanging not showing the first take-offs getting airborne!

Fantastiskt fint! Gillade verkligen den korta timelaps sekvensen, det kan så lätt bli "gadget" men får all sin mening i just en segleflygfilm - perfekt!

Verkligen underbart! Påbörjade min utbildning för segelflygning i våras och har med tiden blivit alltmer säker på att jag har valt rätt sport (denna video var ganska så motiverande dessutom)! De otroligt vackra filmklippen tillsammans med klippningen och musiken lämnade mig drömmandes om en flygande framtid. Du har definitivt fått dig en ny prenumerant - keep up the good work!

The aeronautical humidity dispersion effect coming off the airframe is always dramatically stunning to watch. As an Air Force veteran it never ceases to amaze me the grace of flight whether F-15's in my day or the glider which landed at my College in 1973.

Marty Garcia Thanks Marty! I used Sony fdr-ax1 in this video.

Wotta lotta gear. Millions of dollars worth. However, if you live in the UK and vist your local gliding club you can buy a trial flight for about half an hour, in a modern two seater, which includes training from a qualified instructorsnd often a limited membership deal, and have change from £100. Give it a go.

Beautiful! What camera system did you use?
