Paragliding lessons: what to expect on the first few daysOn the Introduction Day you will learn how to kite the glider with 2 possible techniques (forward and/or reverse depending on the wind conditions). Then you will start to experience your first small flights, a few feet above the ground. Sometimes, if the wind conditions are perfect and you have good ground control, we can start to do some towing and experience higher and longer flights, but most likely we will start to do some towing on the second day.
