Pilots – Our Paragliding Team

“It makes me happy to fly and work with a great team of experienced pilots. As the managing director and owner of Joyride Paragliding, it is a pleasure for me to witness, the trust and understanding our pilots build up with our passengers. Our biggest goal is that every single guest feels welcome and comfortable to fly with his or her pilot. Therefore all our pilots are English speaking. Thanks to the personalities and the flying skills of our pilots, we are able to make every flight an unique experience. We welcome individual passengers and any kind of groups or teams.”
