Documentary filming.

Last week I've been filming with David Wagnières. He is realizing a documentary about base jumping as final project for his studies. The two days he was assisted by a couple of his friends. I decided to bring them first to the Croix de Fer, the great jump with an amazing end over a waterfall. It's a nice place to bring people who can hike a bit and would like to watch us jump. The hike takes about 1h30. We were also joined by Don, an american base jumper traveling in europe. The conditions were perfect and the jump was great. During the flight I spotted two people on a bench and I couldn't resist to offer the a little flyby. I would like to apologize to them if they were scared ;-) Here is some screen shots of what we filmed.

Ready to hike !

After Croix de Fer we went to Chamonix hoping to film one more jump. Unfortunately the wind was too strong so we decided to film the interview part. We came back the next day to film the jump. David edited a short video of the exit, check it out ! 

I m nearly done with the editing of another short video filmed in Chamonix. A kind of "presentation" of my new sponsor StayXCold, it should be out in the beginning of next week.

Thanks for reading.

New sponsor and rainy days.

To start with a good news !

I am glad to introduce my new sponsor, Stay Cold Straight Edge. A great straight edge, vegan clothing brand from Germany. I chose this lifestyle more than ten years ago and I'm proud to represent it with them ! Go and check their stuff !

On another hand the weather has been really bad those last two weeks. I could only jump on these last few days. 

First I went with my friend Stephane to the Vuardes. I think last time I made this jump was last spring. It was good to jump it again. We flew the left line and I could realize the evolution I made in my V5 comparing to last time.

Yesterday I made a couple of jump off the Brevent. The conditions were perfect on the morning. I could keep working on some lines and trying to be more aggressive in my turns. The wind started to pick up in the afternoon and clouds arrived. No more jumping for that day. I hope the weather will be better this august.
