How to Paraglide Safely in the Mountains

Published on Fri, Jun 7th 2019 Sports Rectangular HD

Flying a paraglider above mountains is an amazing experience but has some risks that you don't face when flying over the flatlands. Where are the danger zones? How do the winds work? Where are the best thermals? Join Flybubble Paragliding for a laid-back introduction to mountain flying on a paraglider.

In this tutorial: choosing a route in the mountains, identifying risk zones, entering a thermal, working a leeside thermal, shifting in the core, turning tight, using another pilot to identify lift, taking the best lines, doing low 360s safely … and much more.
