PARAMOTOR TRAINING BUILT ON PROPER WING HANDLING

Learn powered paragliding through a staged, practical training route. We build the wing skills first, then add the motor once your launch, control and landing technique is ready.

PARAMOTORING IS EASIER TO LEARN WHEN THE FOUNDATIONS ARE RIGHT.

Good paramotoring starts long before the engine is on your back. You need to understand the wing, feel what it is doing, control it confidently and make calm decisions during launch and landing.

At Elevate, we use a staged approach. You first develop solid paraglider handling skills using the best method for the day, including hill, tow and winch-based training where appropriate. Once the wing is no longer the thing overwhelming you, we start adding the powered elements.

TALK TO US

Do I need previous flying experience?

No. We can start from the beginning and build the wing first.

Will I fly with the motor on my first day?

Usually not. The first focus is control, judgement and clean handling.

Can existing pilots convert?

Yes. Conversion routes are available for experienced pilots moving into power.
