21 Ways to have fun in the Alps
Many pilots head to the European Alps in the spring and summer to fly cross country or take part in competitions. I’ve lived and flown in the Alps for over 20 years, initially drawn by the promise of easy distance in stunning mountain scenery. Over this time I’ve learned that there are adventures of all…

| 2 |  X-Pyr 2026: Chrigel Maurer wins in record time
Chrigel Maurer won the X-Pyr for a record fifth time this week – and he did it in style. He finished the trans-Pyrenees hike-and-fly race in three days and seven hours – well ahead of Germany’s Markus Anders who crossed the line two-and-a-half hours after Chrigel.
Switzerland’s Lars Meerstetter was third, with France’s Arthur Moindrot…

https://youtu.be/HL8cDBHw2nE?si=32og2xOgvZexBRDX
British adventure pilot Ben Kellett’s latest film follows him on a four-day vol-bivouac mission through the Indian Himalaya.

| 4 |  ‘It speaks in silence’
Flying among the high mountains is not something you decide on a whim. It requires patience, timing and a good understanding of alpine meteorology. To fly above a ridge like the Biancograt, a knife-edge snow arete on the north side of Piz Bernina in the Swiss Alps, you need a cloudbase above 4,000 metres. Anything…

| 6 |  Design Insight: The Goldilocks Class
Back in the day, the nineties and early 2000s, the choice was easy. Most brands had one glider in the intermediate class, what is now known as EN or LTF-B. This type of glider was the one pilots got after training, or even during training.
It wasn’t long before manufacturers started building paragliders that were…

| 8 |  Neo Push Up
If you want a really light harness but don’t like the feel of a split-leg harness then the Push Up gives you an alternative that is still light and compact. Size medium weighs exactly two kilos – including the back protector, speedbar and karabiners. For comparison, the same size Neo String 3.0 with protector weighs…

| 11 |  Windsriders Two-liner paragliding gloves
Mittens are a great option for cold fingers but if you’re flying a two-liner, grabbing a rear riser becomes rather difficult. The answer? Three-finger mittens that leave your index finger free. This pair come from French company Windsriders, known for their Nepal-made duvet jackets and over-mittens worn by the likes of Antoine Girard.

Where do you live?
I’m from mid Wales, but I’ve been running away from the cold since I was 29. For the last 25 years I’ve been in Algodonales, Spain.
How did you get into flying?
I was offered a free paragliding lesson to review a school in Abergavenny for a magazine in 1994. A…

I was on a “secret launch” somewhere outside the main Annecy basin in the northern French Alps watching as my flying buddy for the day disappeared into the distance. He had given me some vague instructions about heading left after take-off, then climbing out to a certain height (1,200m? 1,800m?) before pushing out and around…
