If the flight needs to be cancelled due to strong wind or rain, then you will be informed two days prior to your scheduled flight via email.  Please be sure to check for this.  We are always keeping a close watch on the forecast, however, cancellations do happen.  We can reschedule your flight, or you can choose to receive a full refund of your deposit within 2-3 business days.

There is no age limit.  Anyone with an interest in paragliding with us can fly.  If you are under the age of 18, we will need consent from a parent or guardian.
Is paragliding dangerous?
Statistically paragliding is no more dangerous than driving a car.  All of our pilots have many years of flying experience, and all of their equipment is regularly inspected.
Do I need to purchase special insurance?
All of our pilots are insured already.  This means if any sort of injury did occur, your pilots paragliding insurance would cover the cost of any injury to you.

Sure why not?  More photos to enjoy the experience would be great.  Your pilot will have a GoPro camera for you to hold during your flight.  After the flight, the pilot will send you the video and photos of the experience.

If your flight is cancelled due to weather, then you will receive a full refund within 2-3 business days.  If you want to cancel after already making a reservation with us, then you must do so within 72 hours of your scheduled flight to receive a full refund.  This allows us to schedule other guests in your place.  If you cancel with less than 72 hours, or simply do not show up, you will receive no refund.

The weather is very important to paragliding.  Safety is our first priority, so we will be checking the weather regularly.  We will notify customers at least 2 days prior to the scheduled flight if cancellations need to be made.
