Your guide
Having always been fascinated by flying, I approached paragliding almost as a game and immediately realised that it would become my passion. I have been flying since 1992 and have almost 4000 tandem flights to my credit, both educational and tourist. I am often thanked for my ability to 'calm' people down and put them at their ease, as well as make them have fun!

Full description
Experience the thrill of tandem paragliding flying with a Professional Instructor.
Perfect for all occasions, special events such as bachelor parties, birthdays, graduation parties, anniversaries, or even to turn your weekend around and spend an unforgettable day!
It is not easy to explain in words all that you experience during a flight, hearing only the sound of the wind and the beating of your heart. A paragliding flight makes you distance yourself and see everything from a different perspective!
Paragliding is anactivity suitable for everyone, because contrary to what is commonly thought, it is not a sport for 'freaks' and people who need to prove their invincibility. On the contrary, it is a sport in which reflection, rationality and preparation are indispensable. We are here to spread the word as much as possible about the well-being that paragliding can provide.
What we will do
We will be in Cecima, in the province of Pavia. Once we get to the take-off point, Nicolò and his staff will briefly illustrate paragliding and explain in detail what needs to be done for a good take-off.
The only thing you have to do is run to take off, then all you have to do is get comfortable in your saddle to enjoy the view and experience the wonderful emotions that man's oldest dream offers! Two, three steps of a run-up... and off you go! You find yourself in the air!
During the 15-20 minute flight, depending on the winds of the day, you will be sitting inside a saddle and you will be able to film everything with your video camera, you can sing, chat with Nicolò, or sit in silence and enjoy the flight.
Thelanding will be gentle and will take place near the meeting point, where one of the organisation's vehicles will be waiting to take us back to the cars.
Between the pre-flight briefing and preparation, transfers and actual flight, the experience will last about 2 hours.
Who it is aimed at
This activity is of an easy level and no paragliding experience is needed. Good physical condition is required. There are no age limits (minors must be authorised by their parents), but you must weigh between 30 and 110 kg.
