Chrigel Maurer

TRAILER: CHRIGEL MAURER, DER ÜBERFLIEGER (DOKFILM)

CHRIGEL MAURER – DER ÜBERFLIEGER
 Ein Film von Sven Allenbach 
Länge: 50 Min (Deutsch) 
Der Schweizer Christian genannt «Chrigel» Maurer ist seit zwei Jahrzenten der
Überflieger in der Gleitschirmszene. Im Spannungsfeld zwischen Risikosport
und Familienleben hat der 8-fache X-Alps Sieger seinen eigenen Erfolgsweg
gefunden.
Mit neun Jahren durfte Chrigel Maurer mit dem Gleitschirm des Vaters seinen ersten
selbständigen Flug machen. Die Faszination hat ihn bis heute nicht mehr
losgelassen. Wer von Chrigel spricht, redet automatisch vom „Adler von Adelboden“
– von „Chrigel the Eagle“. Mit 21 Jahren wurde er der jüngste Europameister und ist
nun, 20 Jahre später, 8-facher X-Alps Sieger. Chrigel Maurer gilt als einer der besten
Gleitschirmpiloten der Welt, einer der zudem die Entwicklung der Sportart
massgeblich mitgeprägt hat. Der 41-jahrige Schweizer ist Vater zweier Söhne,
welche seine Leidenschaft ebenfalls teilen. Die Faszination des Gleitschirmfliegens
zieht bei der Familie Maurer bereits die dritte Generation in ihren Bann. Training,
Wettkampf und Familie in Balance zu halten ist eine Herausforderung – vor allem
wenn sich alles um das Highlight dreht, welches alle zwei Jahre stattfindet. Das
RedBull X-Alps ist das härteste Hike& Fly Abenteuer der Welt. Bei der 11.
Austragung 2023 machte der Anlass zum ersten Mal in der Heimat von Chrigel
Maurer halt. Frutigen und der Niesen waren zwei der insgesamt fünfzehn Turnpoints
die es während des Rennens zu passieren gab. Für Chrigel Maurer wurde dies zu
einem der emotionalsten Momente seiner sportlichen Karriere.
Der 50-minütige DOK-Film gewährt exklusive Einblicke in die Familie von Chrigel
Maurer und zeigt wie er seinen persönlichen Erfolgsweg gefunden hat, um
Risikosport und Familienleben auszuloten. Der Film offenbart zweifellos sein
Erfolgsgeheimnis – welches er in der X-Alps Ausgabe 2023 einmal mehr eindrücklich
gezeigt hat. Doch dieses zu kopieren scheint für seine Gegner nach wie vor
unmöglich. In der Vorbereitung und nach dem *X-Alps 2023 wurde Chrigel Mauer
während rund einem Jahr mit der Kamera begleitet. www.chrigelmaurer.ch Insta: chrigelmaurer_offiziell

Acro paragliding tutorial - how to escape riser twists

One of the most dreaded malfunctions in paragliding is getting into riser twists, and for good reason. It's very easy to end up hopelessly twisted and has been the source of many reserve throws, a good portion of which I have added to personally. I've learned a lot of lessons on dealing with riser twists the hard way, so you don't have to. In this video I cover different strategies to escape from riser twists and dive into the most important details to help avoid having to throw your reserve if you encounter them.

HOW TO DO A FULL STALL IN 2023 - PARAGLIDING TUTORIAL BY THEO DE BLIC

Théo de Blic's tutorials is a free web serie where I give a few usefull tips on various aspect of paragliding. The tips I give are coming from an already long career as a professional pilot in acro paragliding. More than 10 years ago I published a full stall tutorial, but in 10 years our equipment as well as my knowledge have evolved and I felt that it was time to make an update on the stall tutorial as it was not the best nor the safest way to learn stall anymore. So here is what I believe the best way to learn full stall in 2023 and with nowadays wing. This is how I teach stall to my student. Are you afraid to try by yourself? If yes come to learn with us at Rise Paragliding, we will give you the opportunity to learn all of this and more under the best instruction available. www.riseparagliding.com For your information : The current range of paragliding wing from EN A to CCCs are better stalled with a 2 stage stall technique. However even old school wing work very well with the 2 stage technique as well! Pilot : Théo de BLIC Wing : Mentor 7 Light 00:00 Introduction 00:55 Why 2 Stage Stall 02:01 How to 2 stage stall 05:01 Master the back fly 09:38 Quicker stalls & Improved exits 12:46 Become Stalling expert 13:47 Basic mistakes 17:28 Conclusion

An "in-between" wing for the windy days! Ozone Zero 3 - BANDARRA

GroundHandling Online Course: https://www.andrebandarra.com/academy GroundHandling Retreats: https://www.andrebandarra.com/retreats We got the Zero 3 19m as a "in-between" wing for the windy days. Normally when it starts getting too windy for the full size wings I fly Gemma's wing as it's smaller than mine but then she has no smaller wing to fly. So the Zero solves that problem but also gives me another option if it gets really windy :) It has different construction and feel but all in all we're quite happy with it!
