French pilot and serious adventurer Antoine Girard has laid down some of the boldest lines on Earth, and he’s been doing it for a long time. Antoine competed in the Red Bull X-Alps four times, starting in 2013 where he found himself on the podium (3rd), again in 2015 (4th), 2017 (badly injured), and 2019 (retired due to continued trouble with the injury sustained in 2017). He’s pulled off some of the most extreme expeditions in paragliding and mountaineering in Pakistan on 6 different trips, flew from west to east across the Andes, was nearly killed in Eritrea (by people, not flying), flew the length of the south island of New Zealand, and is currently traversing the United States from the Mexico border to the Northern Canadian Rockies. On his mission across the US his route brought him through my home town of Hailey, Idaho and instead of battling a nasty wind day Antoine and his cameraman Rodolphe came and stayed the night at our house to get a good nights sleep and grab a hot shower and we sat down to have a very fun conversation about all things bold. How does Antoine approach risk? What’s in his kit? What food does he carry? Where does he get his inspiration? We took it deep, enjoy!







We’re releasing this one a little early for our subscribers. It will be out on our standard channel on July 11th.
