The latest issue of Cross Country Magazine is out now. Between gel packs, leg rubs and foot-baths in the X-Alps we’ve put together a brief taste of what’s inside. Sorry, can’t stop…
ADVENTURE
Jerome Maupoint takes us to the far north to fly some of Europe’s remotest terrain.
SCIENCE
We get an update on the latest high resolution imaging from inside thermals and rising air. You’ve never seen a better article on thermals.
TRAVEL
We go off-road in the Andes, flying big peaks in Bolivia and deserts on the Altiplano.
RECORD BREAKING
The Green Twins head to Mont Blanc to set some tandem altitude records – and drop off some free-ride skiers along the way.
ACRO
We meet Theo de Blic, an acro guru who’s first memory is of flying spirals on a tandem.
HIKE-AND-FLY
We do the Bornes to Fly on a tandem – it wasn’t the X-Alps but the blisters didn’t know that.
REVIEWS
We review the Niviuk Dobermann and a host of alternative pod harnesses.
PLUS
We have our usual mix of news, views and amazing photography. Plus our regular columns from:
Bruce Goldsmith, former Paragliding World Champion
Honza Rejmanek, X-Alps athlete and meteorologist
Jon Chambers, X-Alper and mountain pilot
Dean Eldridge, powered paragliding expert
Jeff Goin, US guru
Steve Ham, cartoonist extraordinaire
