We teach paragliding on private land at Ruapuke on the west coast.
Note: All pilots must have completed PG1 prior to starting PG2. The PG2 course is for students wanting to become licensed solo paraglider pilots.
Our course is comprehensive, fun and you learn with a great bunch of like minded people striving to be the best pilots possible. Training days take place on weekends and during the week.
Pilots travel from all over the North Island to be part of this course. For those who need it, there are accommodation options close by.
On completion of this course, and before being signed off, you must also have demonstrated a safe attitude to paragliding and respect for landowners property.
You can purchase or rent equipment. As a student of Mount Paragliding you get access to discounts on new and used equipment.
Fly safe, fly high!

Mount Paragliding has a lot of gear for you to try before you buy. You can purchase new or used equipment.
Another option is to rent the equipment to give you time to decide what the best gear is for you.
NZHGPA rules stipulate that approved gliders for students must be certified EN-A or EN-B.

We don't want you to buy a paraglider that isn't a good fit for you. We suggest you take some time to try different equipment to see what fits you best.
