Couch surfing for Paraglider Pilots

Let's face it, most of us pilots have given up a lot of material success, ditched the cubicle and the stifling 9-5 job for the freedom in the sky.  Sky bums many of us are.  We are also some of the most handsome and interesting people on the planet so who would not want to host us as we travel the world looking for the next great paragliding adventure?  With a community that is as warm as a trusty blanket we are really lucky.  Meeting another paraglider pilot is like meeting up with family.  Today I found a cool paragliding group https://www.facebook.com/groups/couchparagliding/ just for you sky bums.   Keep chasing the dream!

Money with a paraglider on it?? Yes it's true.

One of my favorite paragliding newsletters brought this story out.  Switzerland is going to print money with a Paraglider on it!!  :)

Blown Land

Those Spanish dude have so much style and mad talent.  Spain really looks like some sort of paraglider pilots dream.

Fantastic Way to Die?

Dying while paragliding is a fantastic way to die, that said I really hope we can make this sport safer. http://www.redbullxalps.com/…/saddening-loss-for-the-paragl… We lose too many wonderful people. Having a close call myself has certainly curbed my risk tolerance.
