You start by booking for an Introductory Course designed to give you a taste of solo flying. You start your training on flat ground, learning about the paraglider and basic controls. You then move to a nursery slope to practise take off and landing techniques and finally do your solo flight. All flying is with radio supervision.
To book the course, please send us the online booking form and you will receive the course details from us immediately. An advance booking would be appreciated as we have a limited group size to maintain a good instructor to student ratio.
After your introductory course, when you want to continue with paragliding, the next step is to sign up for a Novice Certification Course. Here you learn the art of soaring to enjoy longer flights.
