Air Sports Quotes

From regular, relative skydiving, I went on to freeflying. Freeflying is more the three-dimensional skydiving.

I am still a keen mountain walker and an enthusiastic glider pilot.

I was a pilot and flying hang gliders, paragliders, aerobatics airplanes, and then I discovered skydiving. Free fall. Free. With nothing around you, just a parachute on your back. And you go down. But you don't feel like you're going down. Total freedom.
