Frequently Asked Questions

At what age can you do a paragliding tandem flight?

Anyone can fly! The instructor simply needs to adjust the size of the equipment for their passenger. However, based on our extensive experience, we can tell you that it is not advisable to fly with children under the age of 8. From the age of 11 onwards, we see no restrictions. However, you will need to provide us with the child's weight!

I invite you to read the next frequently asked question.

Is there a size or weight limit?

Let's say that below 40 kilograms, we cannot consider our passenger to be within the "average weight" range for an adult. We will need to make special arrangements. You will need to inform us of this when you make your appointment. Similarly, all passengers weighing over 100 kilograms must inform us of this when they make their appointment.

But don't worry, we've flown passengers weighing between 15 and 120 kilograms. We'll find a solution for you!

Where and when is the meeting point?

The meeting point is at the paragliding school. All tandem flights depart from the school. We will wait for you at the school 15 minutes before your appointment time to take care of all the practical details. Do you have friends or family accompanying you? Ask them to arrive early so that we can explain the flight procedure to them.

    My first tandem flight was great fun, so I decided to sign up for a week-long introductory course and I wasn't disappointed! The team is both friendly and professional, guiding you step by step towards your first solo flight—an unforgettable experience! Thank you, everyone.

    Well, after the first few minutes, during which you are thoroughly assessed on your paragliding skills in order to be accepted onto an advanced course (I really thought I wasn't going to make it, as I'm the type who gets stressed easily, which doesn't help), you are dealing with a team of professionals who are obsessed with safety and who help you improve with every minute of flight time, with the aim of making you more responsible and independent. In conclusion, I highly recommend them and hope to see you... in the air!
