Following a long descent from over 5000 meters, we were still wearing our warm suits and didn’t really have the time to take them off – so we floated gently towards the town of Agonac, looking out for a spot to land, still wearing orange all over.<\/p>\n
Windspeeds were close to calm on the ground, just as we had hoped – and along came a little valley with some nice meadows, out went the trailrope and two (unnecessary) bags, and there we were!<\/p>\n
Grinning like schoolboys, we called our command center, then the race director, and within minutes, our retrieve was there. What an amazing adventure! :-)<\/p>\n
