Fly with the locals

Paragliding is a beautiful art ; a dance with gravity, the flying creatures of this world, the atmosphere of earth. Do you dream of flying? I do, but now they’re paragliding dreams; memories from today.

I was first inspired to learn to paraglide in 2006 and it has been a full time passion ever since my first flight off a 60 ft hill with master instructor and mentor, Bill Laurence. Since my first wide eyed 10 second flight I’v flown all over the world; Colorado, California, Utah, Bali, Nepal, Mexico, Columbia, Australia. I’ve flown great distances solo and with happy tandem passengers, and look froward to making many more personal bests with my friends at my side. Last year I competed in Valle De Bravo Mexico, at the Red Bull sponsored Monarca Open (the migratory nesting grounds of the monarch butterfly), managing to place 2nd in the B class category. Most importantly, I fly boulder every day it’s on, and have called this site home for 13 years. I fly far from this site and consider it an ideal training hill/ xc paradise once you get your skills up. I can’t wait to show you what it’s like to climb in a thermal with a red tailed hawk, either with your own wings or tandem with me over beautiful Boulder Colorado. I approach free flight as a martial art and provide caring instruction with an emphasis on safety through careful progression and mindfulness. When you learn from me you have a BFF for life (best flying friend). Perhaps someday you will join the Boulder Airforce ;)
