If you already know that you want something more than a single flight "teaser", but are uncertain whether or not you will make a full commitment to the sport, consider our iP1 Student Pilot Paragliding Program comprised of 4 high mountain flights during 20 hours (minimum) of intensive training.At iParaglide we have trained over 800 students in first flight paragliding courses over our 15 years of operation and take pride in keeping our pilots safe.  This, among other core values, is what distinguishes us from other schools.
Safety is at the heart of everything we do and it is something that is created, not chanced upon. We achieve safety through persistence to some founding principles and a carefully selected and controlled environment.

We also deliver efficient and effective paragliding programs, with our iP1 Student course content designed to significantly exceed both the HPAC and USHPA P1 Student standards while done in an optimal progression, thus simultaneously achieving enhanced performance and reduced learning time frames. 

The purpose of the iP1 Student Pilot course is to provide a thorough introduction to the sport of paragliding through sufficient flights to develop a flying awareness, while under strict supervision from two instructors.   On successful completion, the student will be able to perform a standard aircraft approach landing without landing instructor input and will have enough knowledge and experience to make a good decision if they wish to continue with full iP2 Novice Pilot paragliding certification.

Paragliding Theory

 Three theory modules will provide:

  • Sport overview
  • Basic paragliding aerodynamics and how to launch, fly and land a paraglider
  • Selecting suitable paragliding weather, terrain and equipment

A written exam will consolidate the learning process and test your knowledge of student theory. The exam requires an 80% pass mark.

Paragliding Slope Soaring
Two slope soaring modules:

    Forward launch technique
    Reverse launch technique and further practice on forward launch

Slope Soaring will be done on grass training hills with mild slopes where you begin to apply real skills. You will learn to launch, fly and steer the glider to a gentle landing.

You will practice:


    Laying out the paraglider and sorting the lines in preparation for take off;
    working with the wind to inflate and bring the paraglider overhead;
    controlling and kiting the paraglider;
    accelerating and running with the paraglider to get airborne;
    turning and controlling the paraglider in flight;
    and flaring the paraglider to come in for a soft controlled landing.

We start with launching off small slopes and only skimming a few feet above the ground, to progressively getting higher. You will be changed forever by these first few moments of flight in all their glory.Paragliding Mountain Flights
When you have successfully completed theory and slope soaring with a required 80% pass mark, we take you for your first solo flights off a mountain. Note that for your safety, some students may have to repeat course modules at a surcharge.

Your preflight briefing will go over a detailed flight plan including "mission" objectives. Four high mountain flights will be carefully supervised by flight-command instructors via radio. An instructor on the mountain will help you set up, and launch.

While free from the ground up in the air, you will experience true free-flight,  while initiating some in-flight practice maneuvers.  No windscreen will separate you from total immersion into the sky.  You will feel the air rushing softly around you.  You will fly in a comfortable padded seat paragliding harness that will immediately allow you to feel secure and supported above the incredible vista below.  You will soar high above the valley with meandering rivers below, while cobalt blue glaciers glisten in the bowls of the majestic mountains that surround you.  At times you will experience the "aha" moment, the feeling of omnipotence, like some sky god from Greek mythology, soaring above the tiny, mere mortals below.

You will be guided via radio to the landing field where the landing instructor will guide you down for a gentle landing. Afterwards, you will be debriefed on the accomplishment of your objectives for the flight.

We teach in a synergistic and progressive manner, where with each high mountin flight, we will transfer more responsibility to the pilot.  The 4th flight will be a test of your new skills. You will be required to prepare and conduct a proper launch, execute the flight plan, perform precise maneuvers in flight, and land close to target using a standard aircraft approach. The landing instructor will be in standby mode to offer corrective input only if required. The objective is to have you conduct the landing on your own.
