Frequently Asked Questions
Paragliding is an adventure sport, and like any sport, it carries inherent risks. At Touch and Go Adventures, safety is our top priority. We follow USHPA-certified training programs, use modern equipment, and ensure you progress at a pace that matches your skills and comfort level.
Nope! You don't need any prior experience or gear. Our beginner courses are perfect for newcomers. We'll provide all the instruction, equipment, and guidance you need to start flying safely.
Most students complete their training in about 9–10 days through our structured courses. During this time, you’ll progress well beyond the minimum requirements set by the United States Hang Gliding and Paragliding Association (USHPA). While every student learns at their own pace, the majority are able to finish their training and earn their certification within this timeframe.
We recommend:
Comfortable athletic clothing
Layers suitable for the season (it can be cooler in the air)
Sturdy shoes or hiking boots (no sandals)
Sunglasses and sunscreen
Absolutely! We provide all the necessary gear—paraglider, harness, helmet, and safety equipment—for your training or tandem flight. When you're ready to buy your own gear, we'll help you with sizing and recommendations.
We operate in Monterey, CA and San Luis Obispo County, CA, offering beautiful coastal and mountain flying experiences. Specific sites depend on the day’s weather conditions.
Upon completing your training, you’ll earn a USHPA P2 (Novice) Paragliding Rating, which allows you to fly independently at most regulated sites in the U.S.
