| 3 |  Adventures with my short-pack
As a paragliding instructor living in the Swiss Alps, I want to share my favourite flights from the past year – all of them under my short-pack hang glider. Most of my days are spent teaching what has become the most accessible form of aviation. Paragliding has grown and diversified rapidly: XC, acro, hike-and-fly, speedflying,…

| 5 |  Generation Dune
It felt like the bottom had fallen out of my harness. The sand came rushing up toward me and the whistling sound of the sea breeze turned into a roar. I pulled my hands down again, feathered the dive and was skimming inches above the beach at an unsettling speed. Pulling further, I was thrown…

| 6 |  AirDesign launch Exta, a parakite built for the mountains
AirDesign have released the Exta, a parakite line built specifically for mountain flying rather than the coastal soaring most parakites are designed around.
They say they set out to dismantle the idea that parakiting is dangerous or unsuitable for the mountains, aiming instead for a wing that is accessible, ultralight and versatile, with genuine thermal…

| 7 |  The mid-pack rabbit
Paragliding is a funny sport. When you start out, all that matters is airtime. Then you discover XC and suddenly all that matters is distance. Then you discover racing and all that matters is less airtime. It’s a strange progression from “please let me stay up” to “please let me get round this 60km task…

In April 2026 I travelled to Japan, where I was welcomed and guided by two charismatic pilots and instructors: Kaoru Ogisawa (Ogi) and Naohisa Okada.

| 15 |  Letter From: A global free-flight utopia
I can remember paragliding as a ten-year-old. We were on a family ski trip in Verbier and, immediately upon seeing tandem paragliding being offered from the top of Les Ruinettes, I tugged on my mum’s coat, begging her to let me go. What followed was an experience so mind-blowing and meaningful that learning to fly…
