Title: Climbing Roadtrip from Canada to Mexico
Post by: t23k on August 19, 2004, 08:56:45 pm: Hey everybody! There is a big climbing and paragliding roadtrip all the way from Canada to Mexico I wanted to tell you guys about. The Style of Gravity Team stopped by at places like Smith Rocks/Oregon, City of Rocks/Idaho and Devil's Tower/Wyoming. Check out cool pics and comments on what's going on in our online diary at http://www.styleofgravity.com/

"Style of Gravity has focused on film making. We managed to create a completely new genre of film which can be simply described as a lifestyle-adventure crossover concept. Climbing, surfing, paragliding, skiing, mountaineering and other extreme activities are filmed at the finest locations all around the globe.
S o G's phylosophy is the subtle combination of outdoor sports and MTV-style film editing."

pardon my ignorance, but what is phylosophy?

At the visitor center there was a sheet with all the park regulations that did not mention a word about any restrictions for gliders or any other aircraft. So they thought they were good to go. The Rangers thought differently and after haggling for a while S o G got the fine from $ 750 down to $ 100. But some things are just worth the money"

Funny.
