Progression course
SKYWANDER TROPICAL in Costa Rica
Organizer: El Speedo
El Speedo's 18-day training and travel programme in Costa Rica combines ten flying days (ridge soaring and thermalling around Turrialba, Rivas and the coast near Dominical) with eight days of travel. Two instructors run the training as on the basic course, and accommodation at the SkyWander base during the flying programme is included; car hire, site fees and travel insurance are not. One of the runs adds a cross-country focus.
