Learning To Fly: Pryce Brown
from The Firn Line · host Pod Peak
Growing up in the coastal town of Cordova, Alaska - Pryce Brown was exposed to the vast beauty of Alaska from a young age. Whether it was fishing, aviation, or later in his teens, backcountry skiing - Pryce was always drawn to the more adventurous side of life. • But it wasn’t until his college years, in the midst of a tedious engineering degree at the the University of Alaska Fairbanks, that Pryce found Speed flying - an extreme winter sport that involves a combination of paragliding and skiing - that would forever alter the course of his life. • Inspired by this new form of creative expression in the mountains, Pryce, along with a core group of friends, would begin tapping new opportunities in Alaska - and with that, open new realms of what was possible. • I recently sat down with Pryce to talk about his early experiences speed flying in Thompson Pass, a life changing experience base jumping off a bridge in Idaho, as well as his recent bar-setting wingsuit jumps in the mountains of Alaska. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Music: www.evanphillips.net •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Links: https://vimeo.com/201796680 www.evanphillips.net www.thefirnline.com www.patreon.com/thefirnline •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Sponsors: www.alaskarockgym.com www.moosestooth.net www.hoardingmarmot.com www.behindthesuntherapeutics.com
