All flights subject to weather conditions; reservations may be cancelled or changed due to unsuitable flying conditions. My advice: book early in the week to be sure of flying, the end of the week could be fully booked or the weather may prevent us.

Flying a paraglider in tandem with a highly qualified and very experienced pilot is not dangerous. Statistically less dangerous than; for example; skiing, cycling etc. For passengers to feel afraid in flight is very rare, it’s more a feeling of freedom and exhilaration, the ultimate dream of flying finally realised. Craig will adapt each flight to the “excitement threshold” of each passenger (co-pilot). Express your feelings, enjoy your holiday, I look forward to flying with you.
