Now 43 years old, Swiss Ueli Kestenholz has achieved everything as a competitive athlete. As a snowboarder, he won an Olympic medal, the World Championship title and the X-Games. Now he follows his passion, freeriding, in a very special way.
With a speed paraglider and skis, he navigates mountains and slopes that would be impossible to master without a paraglider. With speedriding, the exceptional athlete adds a dimension to his freeride experience. The mountains behind Ueli’s front door are the giants of the Central Alps. From his home resort of Mürren/Schilthorn, he looks directly at the icons Eiger/Mönch/Jungfrau. At every glance, Ueli is on the lookout for lines that run from the very top to the very bottom. Thanks to his extraordinary determination, he can celebrate speedriding at the very highest level.
This film highlights the special nature of this young sport and shows the tension and precision with which Ueli Kestenholz approaches the exercise.
