Not my best flight from this day but that lighting 😍

The crash looks bad but I actually just bounced off and recovered! Went for another go at the line and pulled it off! Didn't realize until I got home that the GoPro had frozen after the first hit 😭

I've been flying for over 3 years but this past weekend I took my first trip out to a proper drift track. Should have done this a lot sooner! It's so fun and the community is great. Been having drivers add me on IG and ask for footage all week.

It's been years since I got to chase drift cars but I finally made my way to an event at a local track this past weekend. The lighting was PERFECT! Super happy with how this came out. I still have a ton more footage - this was just a quick highlight reel I threw together.

I've been using my 3" 04 Pro cinewhoop to fly at these trails for the past year or so but this weekend I broke it on my first pack. I brought my 3.5" 03 cinewhoop along as backup. First I tried running a GoPro on it but after building the muscle memory flying these trails with a 250g quad it just wasn't happening. So I said fuck it and, even though I didn't have any ND filters for it, just went with the 03 footage.

Turned out pretty good IMO! Would have been even better if I hadn't forgotten I was on 2K and 120FPS all day. Whoops.

So I built this custom 7" for long range cruising but it's become one of my favorite freestyle builds. My phone microphone doesn't do it justice but it sounds absolutely insane!
