The team leader and owner, Don, has operated Paragliding since 2000. We have flown tandem with over 10,000 people.

Solo Instruction is the way to go for those who are ready to change.
For many paragliding is not just a sport, but a way of life! Once you become a pilot you will never again go anywhere without considering the potential of flying.
The basics of paragliding are relatively simple. Many students get short flights on their second or third day of training. You can get your solo P1- P2 rating by training for just three to four hours a day, for fifteen to twenty days, or more.
Our course is designed to allow each student pilot to train at their own pace. Some students need fifteen days of training, while others require more.
Our training hill is the envy of every paragliding school in the country, with one thousand feet of grassy slope and five drive-up launches. This site is perfect for student pilots, allowing them to progress gradually at their own pace.
A paragliding “kit” will include the wing, a harness, and a reserve parachute. All this will fit in a special backpack that can be checked as luggage or carried up a mountain.
All of our instructors are dedicated to making your learning experience safe and fun.
Receive over US$500 of equipment with the P2 package.
