A couple trips to the Delta had me wondering:

Nice video clay. I watched the whole thing. My takeaway is ...

Why are BRM wings so much more powerful than everything else? All the BRM wings are 2M and everyone else is on 4m or bigger it looks like.

Thanks!   Oh I hadn't considered that, I just assumed the BRM guys are generally more advanced...now I will follow up and poll the guys, seeing the v2 out there now...

Love the video Clay. Where is the riding spot at the 14 to 16 minute mark? I see two familiar boards out there.

The hang gliding is lovely. I like to think I could fly one and not miss a beat. I last flew them in 1985.

@gone_foiling Thanks!

@Dwight thanks, that's in Richmond, I saw a couple more of your boards this week, if I remember correctly it was at Coyote Point.
Wow, hang gliding, this sport boggles my mind especially in the fog.  I have much respect for you doing this.   Seems pretty intense, that guy doing the big turns...I can only imagine how good those feel.

One reason why many indigenous societies have a history of being respectful of the earth and its people is due to their use of entheogens which has slowly been spreading into western culture over the last half-century.

Great video Clay. Loved seeing some of the old Sano footage with a few of the "regulars" doing their back in the day!

It was also fun seeing how far we've come since then. Jason Miller the first foiler in your vid is really flying on a different foil now, while "StandinDan" and "AirBoom Ron" are now riding boards almost a foot shorter than what they were on a couple years ago when their clips were shot.

Fun times for sure, and great look back in time to reminisce of what we were when.  :o ;D

I upgraded my camera gear this year and shot video at 120FPS, so here is a my collection of Johnny Heineken footage in slow motion.  I have been enjoying seeing all the little details of how he pulls off each move:

Thanks Clay! It also gives a nice look at the board design.

In this video we learn they are riding 96-110cm masts. 850 sq cm front wings and hitting top speeds of 35 knots. 95% use a harness.
