Paragliding Bucaramanga #1, Colombia
This is my first attempt at movie creation, so it’s a little rough... I used clips gathered from a hand held camera and a POV GoPro HD helmet cam.   Paragliding in Bucaramanga, Colombia is awesome. Where else can you wake up from your hostel bed, drink freshly squeezed orange juice, strap on your gear and walk 75 yards to launch? The conditions are consistent from day to day, and one can expect 2+ hour long flights with cloud base the norm. In 12 days I put in 30 flights. Usually it's a couple flights in the morning and 1 long flight in the afternoon. Rinse and repeat... Something has to be said about the locals too. The local pilots are some of the best unspoken pilots I've ever seen. There's 12 year olds there that have more flights than most P3 pilots. The old timers are weathered in the consistent conditions of Bucaramanga, so you can imagine their skill level. Very impressive, and very unspoken. This newbie can't imagine a more consistent place to fly and learn new skills. Highly recommended site for anyone looking to increase their piloting skills or looking for consistent day to day air. Absolutely astonishing! I'll be back!
