Solo Paragliding Training Courses
Full training program from P1 to P5 with certified instructors. Courses based on SafePro Para standards at the best flying locations in Georgia.
P1 – Beginner
P1 – Beginner This is the introductory stage where the student learns the basics and takes their first steps. What it includes: Equipment familiarization, ground handling (kiting), launching from low-incline slopes, and straight-line flights. Goal: For the pilot to understand how the wing responds to control toggles. At this stage, flights are very short and at low altitudes.
P2 – Novice
P2 – Novice This is the most important training stage. After completing this level, a pilot is allowed to fly independently at simple sites. What it includes: Different launch techniques (forward and reverse launches), turns in the air, approach planning, and landing on a predefined target. Theory: Basics of meteorology, flight priorities (right-of-way rules), and safety.
P3 – Intermediate
At this level, the pilot is experienced and begins flying in more challenging conditions. What it includes: Finding and "coring" thermals (warm air currents) to gain altitude, and flying in moderate turbulence. Requirements: Typically requires a minimum of 30 to 60 independent flights at various locations.
P4 – Advanced
P4 – Advanced This represents a high-level pilot capable of flying in complex terrain and diverse conditions. What it includes: XC (Cross-Country) flights—covering long distances from one point to another—and in-depth analysis of complex meteorological forecasts. Requirements: A minimum of 250 flights and significant airtime (often 100+hours).
P5 – Master
P5 – Master This level is awarded to pilots with years of experience and exceptional skills. What it includes: Expert knowledge in all types of launches, flight techniques, and safety procedures. This level is often a prerequisite for those aspiring to become instructors. Goal: To serve as a role model and mentor for other pilots.
