Paragliding 130km XC | Jura Mountains Switzerland | Out and Return

Paragliding cross country flight in the Jura Mountains in Switzerland, the original plan was an ambitious 200km out and return. After taking off to early I bombed out then went back up for another go, shortening the task to 150km. I made 130km in the end, landing at sunset after 7 hours flying.

    Thanks for the upload today Ben. I had a shit day at work so getting to come home, lay back on the couch when a glass of wine and get some therapy from Dr Kellet is absolutely what I needed. Perfect timing

    'He's worried about going in the cloud I guess, so I'll fly towards him...'! Classic line, really made me chuckle :)

    Great video and flight. Thanks for advertising my home site, I live just under the Weissenstein and you made it look easy, which it is not always. Nice to see fellow Englishmen enjoying my backyard. Drop me a line if your heading this way again.

    Cool to see you enjoying my home flying site. Seeing you ignoring and violating airspaces not so fun though😮. I wish you had taken those more seriously. Launch site at Weissenstein has been closed for paragliders several times in the past because of rules and airspace violations. We locals then need to invest a lot of effort to get it back open and reastablish the trust. So next time ask the locals and inform yourself before launch. Sorry for being the nagative guy here. I am loving your videos but I also love that flying site😅. Keep the cool stuff coming!

    Man! What a great day out! Struggling at times but then you made it back. That feeling of being high when everything starts to glass off, the world laid out before you lit by the golden sunset, calm lift, the LZ in sight after a long day... if you could bottle that feeling you'd be a billionaire.
