What you will learn in the advanced paragliding course
During the Advanced Paragliding course, you will be guided to develop a more comprehensive and strategic view of flying. You will learn to plan each outing according to weather conditions, making the most of the day and recognizing the best times to take off. We will work on thermal centering and ascent skills, honing your accuracy in staying “aloft” longer and with more control.
You will also gain a greater sensitivity to the behavior of the wing, so you can interpret the Paraglider's reactions in real time and more naturally.
You will train yourself to read the sky and the terrain, learning to recognize the signals offered by clouds, wind, morphology and local microconditions. Finally, you will enhance your autonomy in handling complex maneuvers such as transitions, spirals and technical landings, taking your flying to a more conscious and efficient level.

Practical activities take place on Alpe Giumello, in Valsassina, one of the most renowned flying sites for paragliding training and scenic tandem flights.
