Paragliding In Annecy, France

Ericsson Telecommunication

[2007-11-15]

September 2007 Annecy is one of the world top spots for paragliding. The lake with its mountainous surroundings is perfect for thermal winds. So when I got the assignment for Ericsson the choice of location was not too difficult. We hooked up with Erik Rehnfelt, ranked #20 in the world and his girlfriend Anna Lindblad, who run La Chavenette, a small B&B in the tiny little village Dingy St. Clair near the lake. With their help we signed a number of top pilots for the project. Among our crew was also cameraman Peter Degerfeldt who happens to be the lucky owner of a Wescam HD which we mounted on a helicopter for the aerial shots. Despite a stormy beginning we got some stunning footage and stills. Have a look.
