⚠ ACTIVITY RISK

Paragliding is an adventure activity that involves inherent risks, such as falls, collisions, unexpected weather changes and possible serious injury, even death. Although we take all safety measures, the risk cannot be completely eliminated. By checking the reservation box, the passenger accepts these risks and agrees to follow the pilot's instructions at all times.

GENERAL INFORMATION

If the passenger is not clear about his/her suitability for the flight, the passenger is obliged to have a medical certificate in which the doctor confirms his/her capabilities, and that his/her health is optimal to be able to perform the activity. It is the passenger's responsibility to cancel the flight if he/she does not meet the above conditions.

It is the passenger's responsibility to wear suitable clothing (weather and wind resistant, suitable for getting dirty), if possible fixed footwear (reaching to the ankles) and tear resistant gloves. The pilot undertakes to provide head protection (helmet) and flight equipment. In the case of passengers under 18 years of age, the signature of one/both parent(s)/legal representative(s) is required.

It is the passenger's responsibility to understand perfectly the brifing (explanation given to the passengers before the flight) and if there is any doubt always ask for it, as well as to follow the pilot's instructions unconditionally and immediately. This is for your own safety. Failure to follow instructions during takeoff, flight and landing may result in injury to the passenger and the pilot. If the pilot's instructions are not followed, the pilot may disqualify the passenger from the flight operation. In case of violation, the claim for reimbursement will be rejected. The passenger is liable for damages to persons due to failure to follow the pilot's instructions. The passenger is responsible for intentional or grossly negligent damage to equipment, pilots or third parties caused by the passenger.
