“Look at me, look at me – I’m flying through a waterfall like every other wingsuiter on this planet!”

It’s no secret that we love speedriding — the freeflight sport combining high-performance skiing with high-performance wings gives athletes access to some of the most incredible terrain on the planet. Steep powder lines everywhere are suddenly open for business, even if they end in a huge cliff band.
But that’s not the only thing they can do. In the hands of skilled pilots Valentin Delluc and Martin Schricke, the whole mountain is a playground: from swooping passes through gaping gorges, a quick pass-through session on some park features and even a high-speed sightseeing run through the local mountain town – there is no terrain unrideable for these fellas.

When most of us walk to the edge of a cliff or building and look down, we think “holy $h!t that’s high!” and quickly back away. But for some, it’s quite the opposite. They see an opportunity to take a leap and experience the rush of freefall – a few seconds of complete bliss before deploying a parachute and landing safely to the ground. In honor of those willing to take the leap, we’ve compiled a BASE jumping compilation from some of the coolest moments in 2015, enjoy!
