FIRST-MOUNTAIN-FLIGHTS AND RIDGE SOARING CLINIC - July 2009
This clinic will be held in Caldera, Costa Rica. It will be during the rainy season and this allows us to fly during the mornings until mid afternoon in smooth ridge soaring conditions, pretty consistently, every day, before the weather starts deteriorating.

We will also allow non participants to the clinic, to join us just for the fun of flying and having a great time!!

Monterrey,
California - Summer 2006 - $500
Ridge Soaring Clinic in Monterrey, California
Atlanta Paragliding travels to the coast of California for our Ridge Soaring clinics. The
site has over six miles of soarable sand dunes where you can fly with the sea gulls for hours!
In
this course you’ll learn how ridge lift works and how to master this most eloquent form
of flying. The nine day course starts on Saturday and goes till the Sunday of the next week.
You’ll attend a pre-trip briefing and be provided with sixteen pages of notes
and diagrams specifically written for this course. You’ll arrive prepared to start soaring.
This
course is appropriate for beginner students looking for that first extended flight to advanced
mountain pilots looking for a change of pace.
Accommodations are available from the Marriott
in Monterey to dirt bag camping. The area provides great bad weather distractions, (that is
if we have any, we often fly every day!) hiking in Point Lobos, visiting the world famous Monterey
Aquarium or wharf and cannery row. That means you can bring a non-flying friend and they can
have great time also.
Cost: $500 - Next Trip, July 2nd to July 8th, 2006
