On The Moon

No summit is too high, no trail too steep, no gorge too deep. Biking superstar Danny MacAskill showcases his spectacular tricks in Grisons in his latest video ‘Home of Trails’. A few impressions of the shooting on the Weissfluh summit.

It’s hard to say when it will become light. The white wall of mist hangs on stubbornly. Danny MacAskill (32) looks patiently out of the gondola – probably a very familiar sight for the Scottish biking professional. The first rays of the sun should start to peep through shortly. We wait. The same picture when we reach the summit of the Weissfluh at an altitude of 2,883 metres above sea level. Mystical. A backdrop that might even come from a James Bond film. Or from a base on the moon. Filming is impossible today, but it’s enough for a few snapshots.
