4:48 in just blew me away! Absolutely amazing 👍 This is by far the best hang gliding movie out there. Sends a tingle down my spine each time I watch it. So inspirational, but such a shame to see that so few people are coming into the sport. At the local hang gliding club, the vast majority are > 50 years of age. It's such a cool sport, that I just don't understand that.

I can't get enough of these films...

I miss the band of brothers camaraderie, I drove 1000 miles to Fort Funston and was up a few hundred feed in the air within the hour of my arrival.

One of the best hang gliding videos on KZread. I can watch it over and over again !!

I love this series, rewatching it!

Awesome. I fly in Germany, Austria and french Alps, but there is nothing like this you showed us - the perfect soaring spot. Unbelievable! Now I´m dreaming awake to fly at this ridge! ...and of course you did a great job!!!

Putting this site on my Bucket List. May take a couple of years to get there from Australia, but i think the experience would be awesome. Another high quality video from David Aldrich. Stanwell heights above Sydney Australia has a pacific breeze also.

Beautiful.

It can be hard to make coastal soaring look interesting - but you succeeded big time! Clean the lens next time? :)

@designbydave

noversibirsk not the entire distance. There are air space issues and it wouldn't likely all be soarable. There are some amazing sections you can fly through like Fort Funston, Big Sur and Santa Barbara.

Hi, David. If I buy a glider here in the states, do you guys ship it to abroad like the Philippines?

Is there a height or weight limit to this sport? I want to come to ft. Funsiton someday. Has bin a dream of mine for years. I live in Fresno.

any license required?

Thanks for the heads up. Matt changed his soundcloud name and I fixed the link. I don't think he has this song up there but he is talking about putting an album together with all of his flying music. I'd recommend following Matt on soundcloud for that.
