Russell Ogden needs no introduction for those of us who have been in the free flight community even for a bit, and as for others: He's a paragliding legend, a world champion, an Ozone test pilot, and someone who has consistently shared meaningful knowledge and advice throughout his career. In this rare and honest conversation, we talk about his experience and the wisdom he's gained from being at the forefront at the sharp end of the sport for nearly 3 decades in a row.
