Aufwind parakite course in Meduno

Organizer: Flugschule Aufwind

A three-day compact parakite course on Monte Valinis near Meduno, focused on soaring in stronger wind. Theory covers kite risers combining speed-bar and brake functions, 2D steering, the behaviour of reflex profiles and the effect of wing loading and wing size. In practice, pilots train precise ground handling, forward, reverse, cobra and strong-wind launches, top landings on the large launch, speed and glide control while ridge soaring, and dedicated approach and landing techniques. The school provides parakite test wings in several sizes, shared travel by school bus from Ramsau am Dachstein, local transfers, daily weather briefings and accommodation booking.
