New Zealand [Unofficial] FAI Record | Paragliding XC

Incredible day flying around the spectacular New Zealand backcountry. I made a lot of mistakes this day, the only way I managed to close the triangle was by staying in the air until the very end. I'm looking forward to going back and trying this again. It's been an awesome project and it's not over yet.

It's not the official record because in NZ you need to beat the previous record by at least 1km, I only flew ~ 600m further than the previous record set by Louis.
