I posted a HG swoop here once before and received mostly positive comments, so I thought you guys might appreciate this one too.

Enjoy,

For the record, I am a skydiver and BASE jumper too. -
My friend Wolfi in Innsbruck Austria just filmed this shot of a hang glider swoop under a bridge.

He also has video at his site of him doing a 650 meter swoop over a lake (unofficial world record for hang gliding).

I know it's a little off subject, but I think passionate swoopers will appreciate this.

Swooping a hang glider
in Swooping and Canopy Control
You're absolutely right, swooping random people isn't cool. I wasn't as close as it looked from where it was filmed, and they couldn't have moved fast enough to get it the way if it was their goal.
I posted the river swoop video on DZ, it's my friend Wolfi, and we're off to South America together tomorrow for a competition and some filming.
Swoop smart
and remember... safety third! ;)
