Missing One Climb can be Critical

Подробнее о видео

Watch a few valuable lessons as Derek misses one crucial climb and got stuck on the wrong side of a mountain range. One of the most amazing days flying from Omarama this summer, with a 12,500 foot thermal climb near Queenstown. Epic convergences and ridge flying with the world's most stunning scenery.
