Timeline
Christian "Chrigel" Maurer (born 1982), also known as "Chrigel the Eagle" or the "Eagle of Adelboden", is a Swiss paragliding competition pilot and endurance athlete who has won all eight Red Bull X-Alps "hike-and-fly" paragliding championships since 2009, including the 2023 edition.
At the age of four, in 1986, he flew with his father in a tandem paraglider for the first time.
By the age of nine he was allowed to perform "flying exercises" near the ground and "small takeoffs".
When he reached the legal flying age of 16, he passed his tests and received his flying certificate.
While participating in flying competitions around the world, he worked as a bricklayer for two years, but by 2004 he decided to pursue a full-time career as a professional paragliding competitor and test pilot.
In 2006 Maurer met his future wife, fellow Swiss paragliding champion and World Cup winner (then Appenzeller), on the Paragliding World Cup (PWC) circuit, where they both competed and won gold medals in their respective categories.
The pair was dubbed "dream couple" by the local media, and married in 2007.
His younger brother Michael is also an accomplished paragliding competition pilot.
In 2009, Maurer set an aerobatic world record for the most "Infinity Tumbles", performing 210 consecutive tumbles in a row in a paraglider.
Since 2012 he has worked as advisor and test pilot for European paraglider manufacturers Ozone and Advance.
He is also active in teaching and coaching the sport of competition paragliding, with emphasis on young paraglider pilots, and provides motivational speaking to groups and organizations.
Maurer grew up in Adelboden, in the Bernese Highlands, where he attended elementary and secondary schools.
He has also won the paragliding World Cup, World, European and Swiss championships multiple times, and the Pyreneean X-Pyr hike-and-fly championships four times (all editions since 2014, including 2022), as well as the Swiss Hang Gliding championships in 2007.
