Welcome. Good chance you won't be doing this as a family. But that's not the point. For a few short minutes, you can feel like you're flying.  Really flying.

Ummm, The Sunday Morning Chillax? Here's the idea. You're up early. You're enjoying a cup of coffee in the quiet morning while your little turds sweet children sleep in. We'll share a video (No reading necessary!), something to give you happy, relaxing thoughts about mountains, fresh air, fun, or whatevs. Enjoy. Relax. You deserve it. Uh . . . except this is not guaranteed to be weekly. Hey, that's the price of free.

You do realize that jumper #1 had pretty serious line twist malfunction and she kicked out of them right before she landed. My guess is she is jumping a 7 cell canopy because if she was jumping anything more agressive, she could have struck the cliff wall and died. There are many other "near object" flying videos. Check out Jeb Corliss' stuff :)

That looks like one of those sports with a really steep learning curve...you pretty much need to do it right the first time, every time!
