Nice Glenn .....

When I asked about gliders on floats over on the other JJB site, JJB posted a fun video that he should now include here.

Jasons video is a guy on Snow Skis with a paraglider type chute / wing. A little too far out for me, even if I was a better skier.

I hope they don't get a really bad itch or something while doing that! Might cause a sudden loss of lift!

[RKittine]

You got that right.

Nope, I was not that adventurous as a kid. Off the roof of our club house (maybe 8 feet) was as far as I went and that was after taking about 20 minutes to get up the nerve.

Make sure your battery is charged when you film yourself doing this! My blood pressure shot up just watching this.
