No experience is needed. You fly as a passenger while the pilot adjusts how intense the manoeuvres get depending on how you’re feeling, so you set the limit.

What sets acrobatic paragliding apart
Unlike a calm scenic flight, this option is all about the manoeuvres: tight turns, spirals and rapid descents that ramp up the adrenaline. You fly in tandem with a qualified pilot, so no previous experience is needed, just a taste for a more intense flight over southern Tenerife.
Who is this experience for?
It is made for those after a genuine thrill rather than a gentle glide. If you would rather take it easy, your pilot can dial the manoeuvres up or down to suit you. Remember to wear closed sports shoes and long trousers.
