H G film -- Big Blue Sky ...F.Y.I.
Posted: Fri Oct 22, 2010 1:57 pmFor the few out there who have not yet seen Big Blue Sky ,on a big screen TV witha Bowl Of Popcorn…
Make that your next back burner thing “To-Do”…
Why? Well in a nut shell Big Blue Sky is to Hang Gliding what Endless Summer is to Surfing & On Any Sunday is to off road motorcycling.
Bill Liscomb set out to produce a Labor of Love documentary about the origins of the modern Sport of Hang Gliding, Big Blue Sky is hands down the best film you can share with anyone interested in the HG Sport. If you “have” seen it… May I suggest that you also take the time to watch , on the internet, a Lecture given by Bill Liscomb at the Smithsonian detailing his personal footnotes to the film…
