The best way to learn
paragliding is by joining a school. You have to learn the basics from
an instructor who has at least four to five years of flying experience
and who has flown at various locations and in different wind conditions.
Our Training
Courses: The first few lessons are always on a one to one basis. This ensures maximum attention from your instructor at all
times.
The
atmosphere on the courses is very friendly and the key word is fun! We try
to create a very relaxed environment but the most important thing will
always be the student's safety. Training is given by instructors who
are themselves active every day and they enjoy teaching. We never forget what it's like to be a beginner and appreciate individuals pace of learning.
Our courses are divided into two
modules - Winch based module and hill flying module. Our winch based
module is unique, safe and most economical way of getting into
paragliding. Very few other flying schools in the world can match our
expertise and costs in training students by winching. We have trained over
1000 students through this method of training.

THE
BASIC WINCH LAUNCHED PARAGLIDING COURSE
( This is course is suspended till further notice)
It
is one of the most exiting courses, surely helps one to build a firm learning
foundation in Paragliding. The students are carefully guided throughout the
training period physically and mentally. The flying is conducted with the help
of a winch. The Paraglider pilot is attached to a rope, wound to the winch drum
at the other end on a plain ground. As the winch operator winds the rope in the
drum, the pilot gets pulled with the paraglider, which inflates and starts
rising with forward motion and takes off. After gaining the desired height, the
winch operator cuts power. The paraglider pilot immediately releases the rope
and gradually glides down to the landing area.
This is a preferred method of
training as compared to directly launching from a hill. It is advantageous
because the student in progressively launched higher and higher, starting from
lesser heights like 50 feet. The landing area is a plain ground, which is much
safer, compared to the rough terrain of a foothill. The strain of climbing the
hill a number of times is also eliminated. Since the physical effort is less,
one could launch a number of times without getting exhausted. Three qualified
and experienced paragliding instructors on the field control the entire
operation.
