Well with the right hill and some head wind... https://youtu.be/zdCGb9-vjck Slightly more on Paul's original topic, at the site where the bungee clip was shot (Long Mynd in UK) on slightly less windy days, they winch launch to around 300' straight onto the hill. No 'Mini-Winch' though - they use a standard, full power Skylaunch winch, which the also use on their longer runs when the wind is not on the hill. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGeUFJUQlaQ
