Description - What to expect
What is speed flying?Speed flying requires the so-called Speed wings, very small paragliders designed to follow the terrain. By doing this you are able to fly close to the ground and switch from skiing to flying and back again. It also allows you to ski off cliffs.
Wings vary in size and expert pilots can use extremely small sizes enabling them to exceed a speed of 120km/h. Due to new regulations in Switzerland, you are required to have a paragliding license before you can start this course. You do not need to be an expert skier, however, a high level of paragliding is important.
