When you’re 8,000 feet in the air, there’s no mercy.
For a new Red Bull Aces feature, the best wingsuit pilots from around the world head to Phoenix to compete for a “global wingsuit championship.” Pulling together 40 athletes from 18 countries, Red Bull’s latest extreme action sports challenge features unbelievable maneuvers conducted by four-person teams 8,000 feet above Arizona’s vast desert. When the competition was finished and its competitors grounded, American “Air Sports” king Noah Bahnson emerged victorious, taking the crown of “global wingsuit champion.”
