A paramotor instructor and professional tandem paragliding pilot.
I started flying in 2018. I discovered paragliding in the mountains of Lebanon and never looked back. What began as a personal obsession has become a mission: to share the freedom of flight with as many people as possible.
Every flight I do is planned around three things: safety, the best conditions I can find, and making sure you step off the mountain with a story worth telling for the rest of your life.

Jack walks you through everything — safety, positioning, what to do at launch and landing. Clear, calm, no jargon.
You're fitted with a comfortable harness and helmet. Jack checks everything twice. You just need closed-toe shoes.
A short jog into the wind and you're airborne. Most passengers say liftoff is the single most exhilarating second of their lives.
Suspended in silence above the peaks. Jack reads the thermals and finds the best air. Then a soft, guided landing in the valley.
Everything you need to know before your first flight. If your question isn't here, message Jack directly — he's happy to chat.
Still curious? Let's talk →Absolutely none. Tandem paragliding is designed for passengers with zero prior training. Jack handles everything — launch, navigation, and landing. Your only job is to run a few steps at takeoff and enjoy the ride.
With a certified and experienced pilot, tandem paragliding is a very safe activity. Jack is APPI-certified and fully insured. Flights only happen in appropriate weather conditions — if conditions aren't right, he reschedules rather than flies. Safety is never compromised.
The total experience from welcome to finish is usually 40–60 minutes. The flight itself lasts 10–20 minutes for a Discovery Flight, or longer for a Cross-Country Flight depending on thermals and conditions.
Passengers should weigh up to 120 kg. There's no strict age minimum — children as young as 3–6 can fly depending on their ability to follow instructions. Seniors are very welcome. Those with serious heart conditions or recent surgeries should consult a doctor beforehand.
Comfortable, layered clothing — it's cooler at altitude than on the ground. Bring a light jacket. Closed-toe shoes are essential (trainers or hiking shoes). Jack provides the harness and helmet. Avoid open sandals or flip-flops.
Weather-based cancellations are always rescheduled at no cost. Jack monitors conditions closely and contacts you as early as possible if a date needs to change. Your deposit is always protected and transferable.
It's a flight, not a jump! Unlike skydiving, paragliding launches from a slope — you jog a few steps into the wind and gently lift off. There's no sudden drop. Once airborne, you're comfortably seated in the harness like a suspended armchair.
Most people don't. Paragliding in calm conditions is surprisingly smooth and peaceful. Even people sensitive to heights on the ground often find the sensation completely different in the air. If you have concerns, Jack recommends starting with the shorter Discovery Flight.
Send Jack your preferred date and he'll get back within 24 hours to confirm conditions and arrange everything. No prep needed — just say yes.
