forcebwithu Posted September 30, 2024 Author Posted September 30, 2024 Another guy that's very good at the controls of a drone, along with some very good, very experienced windsurfers. 1 1 1
forcebwithu Posted February 6, 2025 Author Posted February 6, 2025 Thought this pretty cool. Queued to start at a failed attempt with the next one a successful grab of the bar trailing from the plane. 3 1 1

forcebwithu Posted August 8, 2025 Author Posted August 8, 2025 Pretty amazing, paragliding up to ski down 5k+m mountains. That's 19k ft. And they did it without supplemental O2. Also amazing is the cinematography that documented their adventure. At 22:58 mark you can see the effects of low O2 levels and how it leads to altitude sickness. Luckily the guy in this video who did a 7,266m summit, alone, made it safely back. 2

forcebwithu Posted August 24, 2025 Author Posted August 24, 2025 (edited) Pretty impressive, especially when you keep in mind they're moving at about 120 mph. Like how they breakaway from the formation at the end. Edited to add: The formation from a different perspective. Edited August 24, 2025 by forcebwithu 4 2
forcebwithu Posted December 9, 2025 Author Posted December 9, 2025 (edited) I got dizzy just from watching this. Edited December 9, 2025 by forcebwithu queued to the start of the race 1 1 2
forcebwithu Posted February 1 Author Posted February 1 (edited) I think this qualifies as extreme. Edited to add: Just before the very top I noticed a very flat section of the tower with no apparent hand holds. This vid is queued to start at that point and how he used a temporary rope ladder to scale that portion. Edited February 1 by forcebwithu 5
lazarus Posted March 10 Posted March 10 Guy needed to straighten out his boat a little more...that's a big honking wave (rock). Good job getting the boat flipped back over. Rigged to flip. 😉 . . . 1 1 1

Then again the chronic pain in my shoulder from a partial dislocation suffered during a kayak roll serves as constant reminder of my boating days as well. 1

Yeah...on my one Colorado River trip through the Grand Canyon (2000) I had a clean run through Horn. The guy behind me in our group went too far right and hit the big hole (where the guy flipped in the vdo). It was like he hit a wall...but fortunately the 18ft. SOTAR blasted through. I had to stop rowing after that trip as my left shoulder was shot...ended up with a full joint replacement (once the ACA kicked in and I could get health insurance). I have a bunch of photos on film...only had a few digitized. . . . There I was...running Lava Falls rapid... 1 3

One captures me running Baby Falls on the Talico in TN. One of my all time favorite rivers to run. Pic of Baby Falls courtesy of Google search. This pic is the only still shot I have of me. Red River, WI, 1983. The kayak is one I built, which used to be what most of us did back then. That was until decent plastic boats came on the market and patching one's boat after a weekend of scrapping over rocks became a thing of the past. Edited March 11 by forcebwithu 2 2
