The Art of Prone Flight
Hanggliding represents the purest form of human free flight. Utilizing a rigid aerodynamic airframe and precise weight-shift mechanics, hanggliders achieve higher speed ranges and glide efficiency. Our academy provides dedicated instruction for pilots looking to master this exhilarating discipline from the ground up.
