Nelson Bays Paragliding’s Introduction Course is designed to give beginners a hands-on experience with the basics of paragliding. In this course, you will learn the essentials of the equipment, develop ground-handling skills such as wing control and forward launching, and prepare for your first flights.
After completing your ground training, depending on the conditions and your progression, you will advance to one of the following:
- Solo flight(s) on a training hill
- A Tandem Trial Flight to experience the sensation of flying
The Introduction Course is typically completed within 3-5hrs on one day.
If you choose to continue your training and enroll in the PG1 Course after completing the Introduction Course, you will receive a $300 discount toward the PG1 Course. Additionally, any flights completed during the Introduction Course will count toward your PG1 qualification.
It is best if you consult us before purchasing any equipment – we only teach with gear we know and trust for your safety. We will provide gear to use for Intro & PG1 at no charge.
When you are ready to do PG2, we can provide discounted PG + equipment packages through our trusted brands and dealers. Second-hand gear or using school gear may also be an option – ask us about availability before you buy anything elsewhere.
