We offer both beginning and advanced lesson packages as well as tandem instruction and advanced mountain trips and tours. We specialize in training small numbers of people well. The principal instructor and owner, Wally Anderson, has over 25 years' experience in safely teaching foot launch flight. Lessons are by reservation only and payment for the lesson is required in order to confirm the reservation. In order to insure the best experience and the most well-rounded complete training possible, our training takes place at various sites around the Bay Area.
Students call in on the morning of their lesson to confirm weather, location, and the time to meet.
Consists of approximately 4-6 hours of instruction, and equipment rental. Once you are proficient at this drill we move to a slightly steeper slope for your first flights. As the day continues we move progressively up the slope at a rate depending on individual ability and comfort. By the end of Day 1, a typical student has had several successful launches, flights and landings with minor changes in speed and heading. An entry level course for those people serious about the sport and who wish to become competent enough to start flying on their own.
