FAR FROM "PARAGLIDING"
we don't jump, we take off.
You've always dreaded skydiving or bungee jumping because of the sensation of the sensation of speed and falling that accompanies them. Indeed the main difference between the paraglider and the parachute, it is the phase of the free fall. In paragliding, there is no free fall and not even a "jump" strictly speaking since the take-off is done gently, in a few strides on a slight slope.
This is why we do not speak of a paragliding jump, but of a flight.

A weight limit?
For safety reasons, the limit for flying a tandem is around 95 kg.
It can vary according to the aerological conditions and the abilities of the passenger.
I have vertigo, can I fly a paraglider?
Vertigo is a visual phenomenon. It appears when you have a visual "leakage" line (on a ladder, on the edge of a cliff, etc.) This "leakage" line can cause a feeling of imbalance called vertigo.
As soon as you take off, in the absence of fixed landmarks and comfortably installed in your harness, you will not feel dizzy. It's like when you take the plane, you don't feel dizzy!!!
Is a medical certificate required?
No, it is required only for people who fly alone with their own paragliding.
Disabled ?
We have a specific chair for the flight. Most instructors have the qualification to guide people with reduced mobility.
How am I insured?
You are covered by the instructor's civil liability insurance.
What is the best season to fly?
We are open all year round. We fly from March until mid-November.
However, each season has its own colors. But the best period is from April to September.

Can I take my camera?
Yes, but you will already be well taken by the discovery of the sensations and the landscape.
