Palandöken Wingsuit Race - Event in Turkey

I´m super happy that I got an invitation to the Palandöken Wingsuit Race in Turkey.
Guys from all over the world, par example: US, Italy, Germany, Australia, Austria and of course Turkey have been invited. We all met up in Istanbul on Wednesday, to continue our journey togheter.

We flew to Erzurum which is a huge mountain massive in eastern Turkey.






After checking in our great hotel...




..we straight went for a little afternoon skiing :)



After some really good turkish food, we had a little briefing for the day, for some nice wingsuit lines...


Due to the fact that the weather was quite shitty, the airplane wasn´t able to fly, so we took our speedwings for some nice flights and rides on the turkish mountains.




On the last day some guys did a jump of the ski-jumping-tower













So everybody was happy and fine, the governor, the sports minister and TV were happy as well, so all in all a great event. I really hope to come back to Turkey soon, the people there are great!! :)

Thanks for the invitation and thanks for getting to know all of you!!
Cya soon, somewhere on the edge...
