Where is this from? Link to it? I'd like to look around. I've been saving money to get into kiteboarding/wingsuit skydiving but I think I'm going to focus in on paragliding instead. I've been into stunt kiting since I was a little kid and the feeling of wind force in my arms & body is super euphoric, it's a pretty strong sensory experience more than being just "fun." I see hawks and falcons drifting on thermals just over my head all the time when hiking mountains and I'm tired of being jealous, it's time I do something about it. There's a place just outside of town that offers P2 certification for $2k that includes rental gear, free shuttles, 10 days of training and 35 - 50 flights. That's a pretty good deal, right? One of their co-founders was killed while paragliding last year but there aren't any other places around these parts so I won't hold it against them.

I live very near a training park and I've been saving money over the last year to get into it but... I'm not sure that I want to try paragliding anymore. The brother of a buddy of mine from high school died while paragliding at the same training park this morning and I inadvertently saw video of it. It wasn't graphic or anything but jeez, it hits a bit differently when it's somebody you know.
