Mountain flying in norway

[Mathyaz 0]

Have edited together some video from this summer of canopyflying in the mountains of Norway. Some of the video is from the extremesportsweek. This is no expedition, takes 15 min from the DZ :-) So visit this link and look at some mountain flying in Norway.

Do you research weather and wind situation for cliff launch (GL) from BASE exit's or near?

Never tried that. A lot easier to take a cessna or the regular jump plane to 8000 feet in 10-15 min than walking all the way to the top of the mountain your self... no roads man :-)

very cool - I wish I had a mountain range within flying distance of the DZ


Was that a Skyhook cutaway at the beginning there? (It looked like the video guy almost ate the main)


good work!

Wooooow!!! What a great vid!!! Is there any possibility to get that stuff in better (dvd-) quality? Really awesome!
Thanks!

Thanks for the comments! :-)
The DZ where this is from is skydive voss. The two australian tandem masters who has been there the last two years, who are two really nice guys by the way(grazy aussies), are also very experienced in mountain flying. Lots of nice mountain swoops has been done this summer! It's getting very popular, and the first accident came this years... no big injuries, only a broken hand. After that accident mountain flying in Norway is more regulated and restricted.

The cut-away is a skyhook cut-away. Super fast and perfect reserve opening. Also fun.

No plans on a dvd :-) Maybe next fall...

Edited to add: the tandem masters had nothing to do with that incident!

Very nice !! I belive I was on the same load with you guys in DeLand last xmas...

Do you have some sort of dive loops in the rears also or did I see wrong ?

[Mathyaz 0]

Thanks again. Think I remember you, you where a group of two or three Finns right?

No loops on the rears.

[BMFin 0]

Yeah.. That was us
Ok.. No loops . I guess I was seeing wrong.

Heres the pic I was looking at. Its not in very high resolution so its difficult to see..

[Mathyaz 0]

Yeah, no loops. Thats Jostein Nordby flying, he flew a lot with us this summer and lots of the video is from him as well. Far as I know he has no loops on the rear risers. Not really necessary.
The wingsuit basejumper is Tom Erik Heimen if any one was wondering...

I be one of the (Grazy?) Aussies. Lucky you were nice Mathias!

Here's a short clip with some more canopy flying in the mountains. Some of the same guys appear in this one too. Including the nice guy himself.

Enjoy!

Cameron.

I'll be in town (Oslo) before the start of the season.

Maybe we can catch up for a beer in town.

Good to hear your doing well HC.

I'm looking forward to many more canopy flights this year, hopefully plenty of them with you as well.
