Then this training is just right for you!
🌀 Spiral training for paraglider pilots
Descend safely – spiral in a controlled manner – your path to precision
Would you like to approach the topic of steep spirals and descent aids step by step? Are you still unsure how to bring your canopy cleanly “onto its nose” or whether your setup can deliver even more sink performance?
Then our spiral training is just right for you!
What you can expect:
Individual coaching for controlled steep spirals
Analysis of your setup and technique
Alternatives such as the colappse-spiral or ear spiral – if the G-force is too high for you
Practical tips for greater safety and efficiency when descending
⚠️ Did you know?
Even A-rated gliders can get into stable steep spirals! During certification, automatic recovery is only tested up to 12 m/s – in practice, however, significantly higher sink rates are possible with all gliders.
✨ Wingover Masterclass – From your first swing to the perfect line!
Want to finally fly wingovers—with more control, more dynamics, and real altitude? Whether you’re just starting out or already have experience, this masterclass will pick you up exactly where you are.

Are you still unsure about any of the following maneuvers, or would you like to improve your technique in a specific area? We can help you with individual support, practical tips, and our extensive experience.
SHV/FSVL Tandem Paraglider Level 1 Test Maneuvers:
Maneuver
Two clockwise circles (double circle) without interruption, with clean entry and exit on a specified axis – in a maximum of 15 seconds.
A counterclockwise circle (figure eight), immediately followed by a clockwise circle—also without interruption and with precise axis guidance—in a maximum of 20 seconds.
landing
Target landing in a marked circle with a diameter of 15 m – safe, precise, and successful.
Slope landing on terrain with a 15–30° incline, landed perfectly in a circle with a diameter of 30 m.
Touch and Go: The “touch” is performed with both feet and at least one step (no dragging!) within a 30 m circle. The “go” may be performed outside this circle – the canopy remains in the air.
Take off
Strong wind launch backwards: pull up, control, correct, and launch—all within 3 minutes, even on flat terrain.
Groundhandling
Slalom flight on the practice slope: A course defined by an expert over 100–200 m, with a “filled” canopy. No ground contact with the canopy, no lift-off of the pilot until the end – can also be performed on flat terrain.
In addition, we offer valuable tips and training to help you prepare for the solo flight test for two-seaters level 1 and for starting flight instructor training.
Then this course is just right for you!
🛠️ Collapse training – your glider, your confidence, your control
Learn how your paraglider reacts in critical situations—and how to support it safely and efficiently.
Would you like to build deep trust in your equipment and understand how your glider reacts to different collapses? Would you like to learn how to respond correctly in such moments in order to resolve the problem quickly and in a controlled manner?
Then this training is just right for you!
What you can expect:
Practical exercises on various folding behaviors
Individual analysis of your umbrella and your reactions
Current findings on modern paraglider technology
Security through knowledge, experience, and targeted coaching
⚠️ Did you knowt?
Modern paragliders have undergone significant development—including in terms of their behavior in collapse situations.
With accelerated side flapping, you stay in the accelerator today.
Front flaps no longer cause the classic nose-down attitude—braking can even be counterproductive and lead to a stall or deep stall!
Trained collapse behavior:
- Side collapse held, stabilized
- Side collapse pulled
- Front collapse pulled
- Front collapse pulled with speedbar
- Side collapse held, stabilized with speedbar
- Side collapse pulled, stabilized with speedbar
💯 Full stall above ground – your next step with radio guidance
From water to air: Confidence and coaching for a safe full stall above ground
You’ve already practiced the full stall over the lake – but the step of flying it over land still feels too big? No problem: with a direct radio connection to the trainer, we’ll guide you safely through this transition. This turns uncertainty into targeted control.
Then this training is just right for you!
What you can expect:
Individual coaching with radio support
Gradual approach to full stall above ground
Focus on safety, technology, and self-confidence
Practical training with a clear structure
⛔ Important: This training is exclusively for pilots who have already mastered the full stall safely over water. If you still want to learn the full stall, we recommend that you first take one of our SIKUs over water.
🗓️ Note: The SIKUs for May to September 2026 are currently being planned and will be published by the end of 2025.
📋 Question and answer session & goal setting in the morning
We start with a question and answer session where you can clarify any open questions about your maneuvers. We set the goals for your training.
🪂 Practice with coach & camera system
Then it’s time to take to the skies: together with your coach, you will approach the maneuvers step by step. During the flight, you will receive valuable tips, advice, and direct feedback via radio.
A fully automatic camera system films your flight from an outside perspective. After landing, you can conveniently analyze the recording, including the radio track, on your smartphone—ideal for reviewing your personal flying technique.
