Extreme Wingsuit Flyby
Once upon a time long long ago my sport was skydiving
.
A time when we knew relatively little about flying our bodies
.
When the first parachutes I jumped were round and tended to go where they wanted rather than where you wanted them to go
.
A time when jumping under altered states was not unheard of
.
When LSD and weed were the buzz of choice
.
That time has gone
.
The sport is now more civilised, more controlled
.
More rules, more controls, more focus on safety
.
Still there are one or two areas where frontiers are still being explored
.
Have a look.

Also towards the end of the clip there is an invitation to look at some of his top flights from 2010
.
Where next?
.
Skydiving has always been a restless sport
.
There will always be evolution
.
Yes indeed where next, each generation sees things in new ways
