Paragliding or some times called Parapenting offers freedom, convenience and simplicity. You are literally flying by your seat of your pants. In my opinion, Paragliding is the purest form of flying. From your first paragliding flights as a novice you will appreciate the feeling of free flight. For the advancing pilot, the challenge is always there for a personal distance record and experiencing new exciting flying areas.
Your paraglider and harness will fold into a ruck sack, the size of a tramping pack, weighing around 12 kg and can be easily transported in the car or take it on your holiday on the plane If you are keen on tramping, how about climbing up your favorite mountain and paragliding down. Set up time is only a few minutes and if you are lucky enough to live in NZ, a very short drive to your flying site.

Paramotoring tuition in NZ.
Some times called Powered Paragliding, this exciting sport provides the freedom to travel away from your launch area and explore further afield. Paramotors can fly up to 4000 mtrs in height and up to 6 hrs in flight duration. No wind or a hill is required for launching. They are one of the cheapest and safest forms of powered flight in the world and certainly the most convient.
Paramotoring courses come in either a 3-day powered conversion (after you have obtained your PG2) or a 10-day specific paramotoring course. Paramotoring courses are run all year round.
