Our Learn to Paraglide Course is structured over a minimum of 8 days by some of Australia’s most accomplished instructors. Our course is known to be one of the most intensive and well-structured courses offered. We pride ourselves on producing confident pilots, not just students with a qualification.

It is well known that the advantage of our location here in Laurieton is its impressive access to over 15 flying sites. Whether you know or understand it now, learning to paraglide on one or limited sites is not going to set you up with confidence to fly the extensive and impressive sites that Australia has to offer – or most importantly the sites local to you.

Time and time again we need to re-teach pilots who have learnt to paraglide in conditions that are not familiar to them when they return back to home flying environment.  Sold on the fact that they are being taught on biggest and best mountains, by the most experienced instructors – only to get home and have little concept of how to fly their local sites. Often achieving nothing because the conditions have been too advanced to teach beginner pilots. 

We train on sites that offer variations in training conditions and wind directions. From our own privately leased training hill to the low coastal headlands of Bonny Hills, Port Macquarie and Indian head (to name a few) that offer soft safe beach access landings and optimal soaring conditions.

We are quite literally based at the bottom of one of the highest student training sites in Australia – North Brother Mountain with an elevation of 476 metres (1,560ft) and 10 minutes from Middle Brother Mountain – 554 meters (1,818ft).

These high mountain sites offer exceptional soaring and thermic conditions.
