Flying Backwards In strong Winds - XC Paragliding

Good flying weather and thermals forecasted, so we head out for a small cross country flight. Starting from Goldeck the plan was to fly into the Drau valley and maybe further. I decided to aim for my car parked in Mölltal. Knowing that valley winds can be strong there. In fact that day it was a strong valley wind forced me to choose a slightly bigger landing field instead the one closer to my car.
