Dansk wingsuit deltagelse i Red Bull Aces 2016
I sidste uge (17-19 november) afholdte Red Bull et af deres fantastiske events. Red Bull Aces. En wingsuit konkurrence af de mere spektakulære.
Per Bjørn Poulsen fra DFU var blevet udtaget på et wild card, hvilket er en særdeles flot ære og udtagelse at få mulighed for. Per fløj r.... ud af dragten og kom igennem de første par indledende runder, men kom desværre ikke hele vejen igennem til selv konkurrence runderne.
Per har dog i den grad markeret sig i toppen af wingsuit på verdensplan blot ved at blive tildelt et wildcard i denne super imponerende konkurrence. Stort tillykke til Per og godt gået, alle oplevelser er blevet nydt med størst muligt udbytte.
Her et lille uddrag fra en presse meddelelse:
Even the Wild Cards who didn’t move on appreciated the chance to participate in a kind of flying that only an elite few get to experience.
“It was awesome. These were the best two days of my life,” said another newcomer to the competition, Per Björn Poulsen of Denmark, who just missed a slot in the Finals. “I learned a lot from every single jump, because here you’re not just flying the suit, you’re chasing something. You beat everything out of the suit that it has to give, at every second. I noticed that I was almost upside down through the turns ¬– and so is everyone else, because they’re being so aggressive. I loved every minute of it.”
