The course takes place on the training slope in Lumbin or on the Plateau des Petites Roches in St Hilaire Du Touvet.
We start by getting familiar with the equipment, then move on to the first ground handling exercises.
You’ll learn how to pilot the paraglider by simulating several runs to master techniques like inflation, heading, running, ground turning, etc.
A portion of the time is dedicated to theoretical lessons, either on the training slope or in a classroom.
We’ll cover key elements such as understanding aerology, meteorology, flight mechanics, regulations, flight plans, and getting comfortable in the harness.
If the required technical level is achieved and weather conditions permit, you’ll embark on your first guided flight with radio assistance in calm conditions.
