How long: 2 of 3 days

Next course: 30 May – 1 June 2025

Where: France

Group: 3-10 people

What the course is about: An event for those who are already flying and want to improve their foot launching skills. Works perfectly for speedriders who want to learn footlaunching in a fast and safe way,
for pilots after a long break or for those who plan to downsize.

You should have previous speedflying or speedriding experience, your own gear, insurance and you should be ready to get back to practicing simple basic skills.

On this masterclass you will learn how to find the proper places and conditions for your foot launching, what is safe and what is dangerous. We will find and practice the launching techniques according to your tasks, skills and your wing. We will discuss and practice different little details of the footlaunching techniques which will be very important later for flying smaller wings in the real life conditions.

Those having their own gear and able to confidently footlaunch it in no-wind conditions can get into our big mountain course.

How long: 6 days.

Next course: summer 2025.

Group: 3-5 persons.

Location: France, ski resort with good flying altitude. Rather simple launches and landing and interesting flying lines. With good weather up to 5-8 flights per day are possible.

What the course is about:

Here you’ll continue perfecting your slope launches, learn more about the weather in the mountains and how to plan your flight on a big line. With a lot of flying time you’ll learn more about your own wing. The theory also includes flying ethics, the rules of flying on a resort and big mountain weather patterns. Two coaches with a group on this course. This is not a course to try a new wing — you should already be familiar with your gear. Our main objective is to get as much air time as possible and to learn your wing in different weather and different conditions. After this course we expect you to be able to fly solo in the same place and other popular resorts.

Pics and videos included. 

Requirements: confident slope launches with no wind, accuracy landing, own gear, insurance.

Those having their own gear and having mastered beginner skills in footlaunching can move on to the second stage.

How long: 6 days.

Next course: Jan 5-Jan 10.

Group: 3-6 persons.

Location: France/Italy, ski resort with good flying altitude and ski lifts. Weather permitting this is a very efficient course. Easy and safe launches are within minutes from the lifts. Ski launching opens bigger range of flying weather. Versatile flying lines. Up to 10-15 flights on a good weather day.

What the course is about:

On this course we teach different ski-launching techniques, weather patterns in big mountains and how to plan your lines. This course is similar to summer basic course, except for skilaunches. With a lot of flying time you’ll learn more about your own wing. The theory also includes flying ethics and rules of flying on a resort and big mountain weather patterns — we’ll try to cover and witness winter peculiarities of weather. Also two coaches with a group on this course. Our main objective is to get as much air time as possible and to learn your wing in different weather and different conditions. After this course we expect you to be able to fly solo in the same place and other popular resorts. This is not a fully speedriding course, we just include some aspects of it and make the available range and seasons of  flying much wider and versatile. 

Requirements: successful beginner stage, accuracy landing, confident freeriding skills, own gear, insurance, avalanche gear.

This is a special offer for those who live too far and/or think they can successfully teach themselves flying. Joking.

We started flying around 2010 in a place where there was noone to ask for advice. And noone to save us from mistakes. We did a lot of them, and we know how important it is to have some kind of support. Collect 10-15 of your videos (gopro or side filming), send them to us and get a detailed feedback as to how you could improve your flying and what to do to be safer.

Price: 50 eur/set.
