Safety FAQ
Tandem paragliding with a certified pilot is statistically safer than many everyday activities including driving. The primary risks are managed by weather assessment (we don't fly in unsafe conditions), equipment maintenance (regular inspection schedule), and pilot experience (all our pilots have thousands of hours of tandem experience). We have operated for 25+ years without a serious incident.
