The #WannaFly team and Valera Boluchevsky have a frigidly eerie wingsuit flight in Russia – watch them descend as the earth’s icy surface appears closer in 4K.

Valera is the Founder of a YouTube project called #wannafly. The project is about reaching goals in skydiving and modern wingsuit flying.  The Wanna Fly team demonstrates their custom made suits that aid them in their decent.

I have a biggest audience in Action sports segment in YouTube in Russia. Every #wannafly video reaches 10K to 35K views.

Typically, a wingsuit flight normally ends by deploying a parachute, and so a wingsuit can be safely flown from any point that provides sufficient altitude for flight and parachute deployment—normally a skydiving drop aircraft, or BASE-jump exit point. The wingsuit flier wears parachute equipment specially designed for skydiving or BASE-jumping.

While the parachute flight is normal, the canopy pilot typically unzips arm wings (after deployment) to be able to reach the steering parachute toggles and control the descent path.
