Filming in flight under a paraglider is vastly improved with the OSMO stabilisation.
Videos are not making you vomit, and you can accelerate the speed without the horizon moving.

Great video and as you say the OSMO makes it nice and stable!

I am also paragliding pilot. How did you mount the OSMO? Did you use the chest strap? Handheld?

Thanks,

I use the chest strap for the handle, then the extension cable . The camera sits on my harness near the instruments. I screwed a fixation there to snatch the camera in place after take off.
The handle is therefore accessible, and I don't need to care about the camera. I will probably try to put the camera at the end of an extension pole, but not done it yet.

Great piece of work! Would you share a photo of your mounting rig?

I would love to, but seems impossible to upload a photo (or not working properly).
