How it goes.

A small group, an instructor, and how a typical outing unfolds.

  1. Meeting at the take-off

    Skis on, the pilot fits your harness and explains the three things that matter: run, sit, look far ahead.

  2. Take-off

    A few steps down a gentle slope, the wing fills above you, and the snow falls away.

  3. The flight

    Fifteen to twenty minutes above the pistes. Calm and panorama, or a few tight turns if you ask for them.

  4. Landing

    Gently, skis on, on the snow. You catch your breath, and collect the video.

Good to know.
