Speed riding is easily one of the wildest extreme sports out there, combining high speed paragliding with wild ski routes. While paragliding is typically done high in the sky and at a slower speed for the sake of enjoying the flight, speed riding usually consists of fast flights where the flyer comes close to or even touches the ground often on multiple occasions. This video of athlete Anthony Dutruy does a pretty good job demonstrating just how wild the sport can get.
Huge shoutout to the men behind the camera for grabbing this incredible footage. The fact that they didn’t flinch at all is unbelievably impressive.
