It’s a world first: three athletes fly with the Zeppelin NT from Friedrichshafen to the Eastern Alps to abseil and ski on steep terrain on skis and snowboards. In mid-February, the three Alpinists, Stefan Ager, Andreas Gumpenberger and Fabian Lentsch boarded the Zeppelin NT at the Zeppelin hangar in Friedrichshafen and headed off towards Brandnertal in Vorarlberg, Austria. Once at the top of the “Kleine Valkastiel” the two doors and floor hatch were opened and 50 meter long ropes were thrown out. The three athletes stop, rappel down, then hang in the air under the gigantic airship, taking in the almost surreal, never before seen perspective.
