Not a glider video but great video from the paragliding pre-worlds in Brazil.
Remember this was filmed in Brazil so no need to comment on cloud flying. Next time you want to whine about gaggle flying with your glider remember this video Enjoy http://vimeo.com/86473511 |

Another interesting video to watch while it snows outside.
This sailplane can be launched by airplane, trike, payout winch, bungee or by foot. Easy one-person wing handling without a cart. Archaeopteryx http://player.vimeo.com/video/39325401 |

Love that thing. That said, can anyone guess what the damage for one of those things is ready to go? About 100k with a trailer! Ouch!

Safety minded as I am, I usually don't come within about 2500' of clouds, so it's really cool to see what it would look like, if I did. Evan Ludeman / T8 |
