Hi, I'm Yannick The idea of paragliding struck me when I was 18. I started immediatly with 19, when I earned my first cold hard cash. From there on my paraglider took the lead and showed me places and awesome people which I wouldn't know about otherwise. Travelling and learning about new locations is awesome! Every flight is different to the one before, just grabbing your gear gets you excited. It's the diversity of paragliding that gets you. Going for hike and fly, acrobatics, or a crosscountry flight it's hard to choose. Now it's time to share the fun!

My personal experience: I started paragliding in 2013 and got my licence in 2014. I started to explore the mountains from the air and improving my skills in safety trainings over water. I've done 4 of them so far (one with the tandemparaglider). 2017 was a great year I got started up with the acrobatics paragliding club central swiss and got my first real cross country flights in Slovenia 73 km. In the acro club I started to learn dynamics stalls and getting into helicos with the awesome help of the other acro members. Over the years I was flying in Teneriffa, Slovenia, Croatia, several times in Italy, in Australia at the famous Manila and allmost all the flyable places in New Zealand, where I even flew a new place where nobody else was flying before at Mt. Owen togheter with a group of kiwi pilots. In Switzerland I learned to know a lot of different places during my work as snowboard instructor.
