QUESTIONS

Who can fly ?

Everyone from 4 years and up to 115 kg. Physical condition and age don’t matter. You must nevertheless be able to take a few steps of brisk walking.

We advise you to let your children fly as soon as they actually want to take a flight. Don’t push them to go if they are still hesitant. We inform you that their flights will only take place in the morning from 8:00 a.m. if conditions permit..

Is paragliding physical? ?

Paragliding activity is in no way physical, a few steps for takeoff will be enough to make us fly.
Then the flight remains very smooth and without the need for participation on your part. !

I would like to offer a gift voucher, how to do ?

To offer a good baptism gift, nothing could be simpler, just go to our dedicated section Gift Vouchers, accessible via the site menu. Give your friends or loved ones their first flights.

Comment faut-il que je m'habille ?

A fleece may be essential for the flight 1500 meters of altitude. During the southern winter a simple sweater or windbreaker may be useful for other flights. During the southern summer, a t-shirt will suffice.

Remember to wear good shoes (baskets au minimum).You will be asked to walk in the grass and run for a few seconds after taking off.. Good shoes, it helps.

J'ai un peu peur, what should I do ?

We are a qualified team, passionate and dedicated. Our goal is to provide you with an unforgettable experience in a magical environment., while ensuring your comfort and safety. We attach great importance to each stage of your paragliding adventure in Reunion, taking the time to explain, to listen to you and answer all your questions.

Just observe the beaming smiles of people upon landing : this is the best indicator of what awaits you !

Je crains d'avoir le vertige !

Rest assured : vertigo disappears in everyone as soon as our feet leave the ground ! This is exactly what will happen when we hit the runway… Your concern, although understandable, will fade away quickly. All passengers without exception have the same reaction :

“Eh, it's not even scary !”

We regularly let people who are prone to vertigo fly paragliders., and upon landing, we are entitled to beautiful smiles. No dizziness in flight !

Who will make me fly ?

The Black Air Parapente team is made up of several professional pilots, independent state-certified instructors. They are very experienced with many years of practice.

Aurai-je besoin d'un équipement spécifique ?

Clothing appropriate to the temperature of the day and sports shoes are necessary. Equipment for the flight will be provided to you. Equip yourself as if you were about to take a walk in the mountains because flying remains a sport ! You can use your sunglasses or keep your prescription glasses.

And if the weather conditions do not allow the flight ?

We will agree with you on one or more postponement dates based on your availability and ours..

How does a paragliding flight take place? ?

Your experience begins with a quick ground training session, then you take off accompanied by your instructor. Once in the skies, you will have the opportunity to admire the magnificent view of Reunion Island, with even the possibility of taking orders if you wish, before returning gently to the ground for landing.

Where should we meet again? ?

We will give you an appointment 10 minutes before departure near Kélonia (the sea turtle observatory) in the parking lot of the paragliding landing zone in St Leu, by the seaside, in front of the Black Air Paragliding minibus, which will take you comfortably to the flight site.
