Arnaud Mouqué is a real drug addict padel and… skydiving. With a good dose of madness, here he is combining these two sports at an altitude of more than 4000 meters!

Needless to say that this time, we don't forget the strap, and especially the bag! Arnaud explains his concept to us!

Combine skydiving and padel : a novelty

I'm a beginner at padel, I'm playing in Fayenbois in Belgium. It's been a year since I picked up my first racquet.

I had this idea because in skydiving, it hadn't been done yet.

I play padel with some skydiving buddies but also normal people (understand: those who don't jump).

All that remained was to combine the two activities! This great idea came to us at the bar, after a game.

Play at padel with a wind of 300 km/h!

In terms of sensations, nothing special except that at 300km/h, the snowshoe takes the wind quite a bit and you have to hold it well. This falls under the waterfall!

I would like to do this again with two or more people, but it requires a little preparation.

Next year, no doubt.
