Paragliding, Progression and Improvement course.


Here we divide the level into two courses


Progression:

For students who have completed the introductory course and have not flown in thermals,


Improvement:

For students, with a minimum of approximately 40 flights, and experience in thermal flight


In both, we adapt to your level, ensuring a gradual development of your skills. Our main focus during the course, regardless of your previous experience, is safety. We deeply value the habits you develop at our school, as well as the peace of mind that comes with knowing you'll finish the course with a solid foundation in takeoff, flight, and landing.

Throughout the training, we will focus our efforts on fundamental aspects such as thermal flight, descent maneuvers, top landings, taking off from low altitudes, and maximizing flight time by taking advantage of lift.

This specific training will allow you not only to feel more competent, but also to enjoy this exciting sport even more, all while ensuring maximum safety at every stage of your development. We are committed to your progress and well-being on every flight.
