After many years of chasing the elusive Nevada State Paragliding
distance record, I was finally able to break it. I was able to fly 85.70 miles
from our Goodsprings launch in Las Vegas, NV. I was flying a Gin Sprint DHV 1/2.
Maximum altitude 15,110 feet. Flight time 3 hours 59 minutes. Maximum lift was
over 1,600 ft minute. Maximum sink was about 1,500 ft minute.
