					<description><![CDATA[French pilot and serious adventurer Antoine Girard has laid down some of the boldest lines on Earth, and he's been doing it for a long time. Antoine competed in the Red Bull X-Alps four times, starting in 2013 where he found himself on the podium (3rd), again in 2015 (4th), 2017 (badly injured), and 2019 (retired due to continued trouble with the injury sustained in 2017). He's pulled off some of the most extreme expeditions in paragliding and mountaineering in Pakistan on 6 different trips, flew from west to east across the Andes, was nearly killed in Eritrea (by people, not flying), flew the length of the south island of New Zealand, and is currently traversing the United States from the Mexico border to the Northern Canadian Rockies. ]]></description>

Paul and Gavin became friends during preparations for the 2015 Red Bull X-Alps (Gavin's first of 4) and have had some pretty remarkable adventures together, including during the filming of North of Known, when Gavin and Dave Turner crossed the Alaska Range by foot and paraglider in 2016 (Paul was one of the film crew's bush pilots).]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The bonus episode on leaving the nest with Calef was such a big hit we decided to do another show, call it the "201" version, or the next step. At this stage pilots are a couple hundred hours in. They are chasing cross country, getting more comfortable with bumpy air, they've hopefully done an SIV and are actively trying to decode the invisible. We take a deep dive into finding the special sauce of flying XC.]]></description>

So here it is, a veritable primer on leaving the nest.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[This is the third and final special episode of the Cloudbase Mayhem to give all of the fans of the race a little insight into the greatest game on Earth directly from the perspective of the athletes. Live Tracking is amazing, but it misses a lot of the emotion and the background, and these interviews with the athletes take us behind the curtain. In this final installment we hear from Adrian Keller (SUI 3), Marko Hrgetic Hrga (CZE 1), Willi Canell (USA 2), Maxime Pinot (FRA 1), and yours truly (Gavin McClurg- USA 1).]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Nik Hawks sits down with Australian meteorologist, channel 9 weatherman and paragliding pilot Gavin Morris to talk all things weather, forecasting and identifying good days in this 3rd and final bonus episode in our weather series. Gavin started his weather studies as a surfer in the 80's then moved into reporting for snow and surf forecasts and is now who many Australians see on TV every day to get their daily weather. Gavin says we can think of ourselves as weather balloons as we soar up through the atmosphere.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Jeff Shapiro returns to the podcast to share his weather forecasting flow in this awesome bonus episode (using various weather tools, figuring out lapse rate, identifying wicked days, etc) and he shares some incredibly valuable information for managing risk and what the sport has taught him over the years. Jeff brings us along with him on his X-Pyr campaign in 2018 where a questionable call turned out ok and reminds us to "never hope for the best or try to get away with it."]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[This is the first of three shows in a bonus series for our subscribers dedicated to building an understanding of the weather and forecasting. Emi Carvalho studied physics in school, but it wasn’t until he began paragliding that applied physics interested him.  He talks about the basics of weather, focusing on island weather and the possibilities inherent in an island with mountains over 2,000m.  Emi talks about where he turns to first for weather (Windy and any local knowledge), and what he usually looks for (wind intensity, direction, and temps at different altitudes.).]]></description>

After we ended the show Rick and I kept talking about the takeaways and some of the things he could have had or could have done differently. Subscriber content that we thought you would enjoy.

"Use some fu$%ing discipline!". Find yourself bombing out in comps? Frequently frustrated by a shorter day than you could have gotten? Listen up.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[This is a BONUS episode I have promised for many months, a recording of Paul Guschlbauer's 2017 Red Bull X-Alps talk he gave when he came through Sun Valley (and broke his personal best!) this August to do some flying on his way south on his Supercub Overland Expedition. This took my good man Myles over 100 hours of editing to put together and was a proper pain in the butt, so PLEASE watch- there are many, many gems here and you'll get to see some pretty exciting X-Alps flying.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[It was a remarkable week- nearly 1,000 km in three flights, all of them one personal best after another. But the big one is a pretty wild story in extreme conditions in huge terrain on a very marginal day at best, and one that probably should never be repeated. Top speeds of 115-120 km / hr in the flats is one thing, but flying over 6 major mountain ranges from Idaho deep into Montana at that speed is certainly living on the edge!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The Red Bull live tracking is great, but it misses out on all the behind-the-scenes and in this talk we dive into what the fans don't get to see. We talk training, supplements, our decision on using the nightpass the first night, mistakes made, good moves, dicey launches, crazy weather and how the 2017 race was the most brutal yet. In 12 days I did 16 1/2 marathons, climbed the height of Everest 4 times (34,000 meters of vertical ascent), flew over 1,000 km- and I was still 308 km from goal! Only two athletes made it, Chrigel Maurer won for his 5th straight time, and rookie Benoit Outers made it in just before the time expired. 5 athletes were eliminated and 7 withdrew due to injury or exhaustion. ]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[And here it is! The long-awaited show hosted by Bill Belcourt, dedicated 100% to your questions. We asked fans of the show to send us any questions related to flying so the Yoda of the sky, Bill Belcourt could answer them in the unique way that only Bill can. We talk about how to deal with turbulence, creating better headspace, how to mitigate intermediate syndrome, how to gaggle fly, how to deal with negative people in a positive way (ie avoiding ground suck), when to leave a thermal, techniques for landing backwards, how to pick the good days, team flying, when to launch in a thermal cycle and a LOT more! Enjoy!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Our most popular shows by far on the Mayhem was the podcast with Larry Tudor, which you can find here. When we got done with the show luckily I kept recording because Larry immediately started relating one of the funniest stories I've ever heard. It all went down in Bir, India and it involved a bus load of pilots who happened to be on acid, a blown transmission, and a whole lot of luck. Prepare to laugh.]]></description>
