Andrew Flintoff

I made a series for ITV, just after I retired from Tests in 2009, called 'Flintoff Versus the World.' The idea was that I would attempt a series of extreme sports - rodeo riding, jumping out of aeroplanes, paragliding, cliff diving. I thought, 'Yeah, it looks fun. It's six weeks having a laugh.

I started with paragliding. Paragliding is taking off from mountains with a paraglider, with the possibility to fly cross-country, distance, just with the use of thermals to soar. Also, different aerobatic maneuvers are possible with a paraglider. From there, I started with skydiving.

I understand the atmosphere better than I ever did before. You feel the thermals while paragliding. You are in the clouds. Chasing a storm puts you in front of the cloud, not a book. I hope to learn as I do these things.

Paragliding is both an action sport and a leisure activity, implying adventure and relaxation.

Action and Leisure

Paragliding is participative, not something that happens to you; the participant controls the flight.

Not Passive

Paragliding requires open spaces like mountains or hills and is weather dependent.

Outdoor Adventure

 I just kind of wanted to go and explore the world and have an adventure so I hit upon motorized paragliding it was a really terrific tool for exploring you
