Experience the freedom of unpowered human flight!
Fly tandem with us and let the instructor take care of the details so that you can enjoy your first time soaring with the birds!
Basics
We offer tandem paragliding flights from beautiful Mount Prevost in Duncan for $300 per person.
If you’d like a video memory of your flight, we offer a video add-on for $50 per person.
Each flight is one-on-one with an instructor and offers a hands-on introduction to paragliding. Whether you’re checking off a bucket-list adventure or considering learning to fly yourself, a tandem is a great way to experience the sport.
Many people book a tandem simply to try paragliding for the first time, while others use it as their first step toward formal training. There is no obligation to continue afterward- your flight can be a one-time adventure or the beginning of your journey into the sport.
How Scheduling Works
Paragliding is highly weather-dependent, so we use a flexible scheduling system.
When we have pilots available and favourable flying conditions in the forecast, we send an update to our Flyable Days mailing list. Anyone who is available can then contact us to claim an open spot.

You can unsubscribe at any time.
You’re also welcome to contact us with specific dates you’re hoping to fly. If we have availability, we can tentatively pencil you in and follow up closer to the date, usually 5 days ahead of time, once the forecast is reliable enough to determine whether conditions will be suitable.
Requirements
Our tandem equipment has a maximum passenger weight limit of 260 lbs.
Participants must also be able to:
● Walk a short uphill trail from the parking area
● Take several brisk steps- similar to a light jog- during launch
We’re committed to creating a welcoming and respectful experience for everyone. If you have questions about equipment fit, sizing, or the physical requirements for launch, please feel free to reach out before booking.
Before flying, each participant will be asked to review and sign our waiver.
