PWC Colombia


The Paragliding World Cup represents the highest level of racing paragliders, period. To fly with PWC Pilots one needs to make smart moves, fly the hottest glider and not be afraid to send it full throttle. Team USA pilots proved they have the metal by taking turns placing in the top ten in nearly every task. In the end it was Nick Greece that was the most consistent in the tricky Colombian conditions, Nick placed seventh overall. Nick was also the highest placing pilot in the Americas making him the 2011 PWC Americas champion, a crown that was handed to him by the 2010 PWC Americas champion, Josh Cohn. Congratulations team USA!
