I posted a video of this same line almost exactly a year ago and it feels so good to come back and see how much I’ve progressed. Can’t wait to see where this sport takes me in the next year! #speedflying #gopro #bestofspeedflying #switzerland #firedup taken in Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland by @connerpetersen_

Pretty surreal day today. 7 years ago on this day my dad rented a plane and took me for my first flight to see if it’s something I wanted to do for a career. And after almost 5 years of hard work but memories I’ll never forget I finally made it to my end goal. I got my wings at United airlines where I’ll spend the next 41.5 years of my life. Every step I’ve made has been working for this and it really paid off because as of now I am the youngest pilot out of 16,000 pilots here and I will retire number 1 in the company when I’m 65 (if i make it that long). I’ll be flying a 737 and really looking forward to some hawaii overnights by @connerpetersen_

I’ve looked at this hill for 4 years since I’ve started speedflying and always wanted a lake swoop off it but after being at the launch it didn’t work. But once I started base it seemed perfect for cutaways even with a sketchy launch. Stoked to finally make it happen after romanticizing it for so many years. Thanks to @hellinyeller being there for emotional support and @mk6_ike for the boat recovery! #basejumping #paragliding #pacificnorthwest #insta360 taken in Lake Merwin by @connerpetersen_

The sickest mission I’ve done in my life and all the boys crushed it. Heli jump over the mountains with base rigs and speedwings strapped under our clothes. After a fun little skydive and a top land we flew the sickest speed flight in the world. No effort for 2 unreal flights #speedflying #gopro #basejumping #switzerland taken in Lauterbrunnen, Swizerland by @connerpetersen_

A flight I’ve wanted to get for years and stoked to do it with the sickest crew I could imagine! Full flight for the memories it’s a long one. Feels good to be speedflying again #speedflying #gopro #bestofspeedflying #ozoneparagliders taken in Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland by @connerpetersen_
