The maroons are heading home triumphant, after winning the State of Origin Paragliding competition at Mount Borah, on the weekend.
The Blues were defeated by a single point after 3 days of intense flying – female flyer Sarah Allen helping Queensland claim victory.
While most of the 200 competitors came away unscathed – day three was called off early when one pilot crash-landed.
The man was flown to Royal North Shore Hospital, with suspected spinal injuries.
