Summary

One of the better videos celebrating the many top landings made on 19 Aug 2012.


l On Vimeo l Duration 8mins l



Conditions were so good that tandems, acro wings and single surface gliders were making it to the summit.

Gael Lafond who made this video said in 2012:-
"On 19th August 2012, the weather was perfect, and for the first time in paragliding history, about 50 pilots landed on top of the Mont-Blanc after taking off over Chamonix, almost 10.000 feet below...
The first paragliding top landing occurred in 2003, and since, only a few pilots had managed it".
