Description
One often hears extreme sports athletes say "Gravity sucks" or "No Gravity". There are people who would not agree, because without gravity their kind of sport would not exist. The snowboarder Ueli Kestenholz and the paraglider Mathias Roten love the game of gravity. Together they have done the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau on one single day, using their skis and speed-riding kites. This has never been done before. Further "Gravity Actions" are presented by Stephan Siegrist (climber), Ueli Gegenschatz (Basejump) and Stefan Klaus (Mountainswooping).
