Flying is a rollercoaster of emotions. Launching is mixed with a dash of nervousness. The wind against your face, you feel the freedom and excitement.

But there's also a hint of vulnerability, flying above the ground, dependent on the airmass and your skills.

Yet, amidst the fear, there's a sense of liberation. Paragliding evokes a profound connection to the elements, a dance of trust and harmony. Flying is a journey that stirs the heart and soul, a blend of fear, joy, freedom, and communion with nature.

That's why I'm flying ✨️

After a short snow shower, soaring session was back till the sunset over Les Crêts. This is what we like during autumn - winter time when days are shorter.

We wish a warm welcome to Romain Bingelli @romain_bngl to AlpsFreeRide team. Romain is a young motivated pilot from Geneve who loves cross-country flights. His comfotable wing handling helped him fly his first 100km triangle in the year after he got his license. We wish him a great season in the team and excellent flights. 🏔🪂

Which natural drink can turn a gray day into a sunny day? It's T-Zen!
Our partner knows how to lift our mood with this natural saffron formula. In addition, the new bottle size is easy to carry everywhere, even for hike&fly !

In this month's mail, we found two champions of our team: Yael and Serena! In February's Cross Country magazine, Yael Margelisch recounts her last season full of experiences such as the X-Alps, the Women's World Champion title and the search for new records in Brazil. In the Adventure Guide 2022 published by Cross Country Magazine, Serena narrates her quick progression in long distance flights, the three months experience in Brazil and her ambitions for the future.
Have you already spotted and read these articles? 📰🪂
We wish excellent flights and happy landings to these two young pilots.

AlpsFreeRide team pilot Colin @thisguy_intheair did it again! It's his third long flight in the Jura and it seems that he likes it a lot. Last time he flew 131km and today another line of 93km. And what's the best of it? He got his pilot licence only a few months ago. Congratulations to him! 🥳🥳🥳🦅🚀🪂

The paragliding season ended and the results are in!!! 2020 sure had silver linings worth celebrating!
⭐️🏆⭐️
@alpsfreeride.martin went straight for the gold and won the Swiss Cross Country Cup, snatching the first place this year! 💥🥇💥
A true artist, he always amazes us with his supernatural abilities to feel the air and flying along the most improbable lines, alwas surprising us! And he blew our mind yet again this Summer as he relentlessly chased an impressive triangle across the French and Swiss Prealps, closing the longest one at 307km!! ✨🔺✨
Congratulations Martin!!! You are our inspiration and a true legend! 🥳😍🥳

⭐️🏆⭐️
Skipping silver and grabbing both gold and bronze, @reynald_mlr made the best of the season! After flying one of the longest lines ever in Brazil with his team (552 km!) he came back to Switzerland to fly out of the box! His creative routes in and around the country earned him a well deserved first place in the innovative ranking of the Swiss Cross Country Cup and the third place overall in the Open ranking! 💥🥇🥉💥
Thank you for your energy, for sharing your passion, and for bringing the current Alpsfreeride team together! 💙🙏💙 And for creating the best paragliding website ever!!! (Link in bio) 😎
Congratulations Reynald!!! You are a great mentor and an even greater pilot! 🥳😍🥳

Speaking of silver, @sebosimobenz reached the second place of the World XContest AND of the Swiss Cross Country Cup! 💥🥈🥈💥 His longest flight this year was one of the longest ever flown with a paraglider: 553 km in the Brazilian Sertao! He is an incredibly versatile pilot and he closed several impressive FAI triangles across the Alps; no terrain can resist him! 💪🤩
He always flies with a smile, and happily shares his experiences, which makes him a true gem in our world!💙🙏💙
Congratulations Sebi!!! Continue to work your magic!! 🥳😍🥳
