The Experience
Your experience starts on the ground at the designated meeting point in Bassano del Grappa, where you will meet your instructor and get a look at the equipment. They will take you through a clear safety briefing, explaining how the launch works and what you need to do when it is time to leave the ground.
Once you are securely strapped into the harness alongside your instructor, you will wait for the right wind conditions before taking a few running steps down the slope to launch. The glider catches the air quickly, lifting you smoothly off the ground as you transition into a comfortable seated position.
While you are in the air, the instructor handles all the navigation and controls. This leaves you completely free to look out over the hills and fields of northern Italy, feeling the steady movement of the wind without the noise of an engine. You will spend your time in the air tracking the thermal currents, getting a real sense of how paragliders use the air to stay aloft.
As the flight comes to an end, your instructor will guide the paraglider down toward the landing zone, briefing you on how to position your legs for a soft, controlled touchdown on the grass.
