Learn to Fly
As a USPPA-certified school, we offer Arizona’s most comprehensive training program. All of our instructors are fully-certified professionals. Simply put, we offer the most free-flight, USHPA-rated, paraglider experience of any powered paragliding (PPG) school in Arizona. If you really want to maximize your flying skills and learn PPG through a comprehensive and building-block approach, we are your team! Our ground and flight training takes place in scenic desert locations and will ensure you have solid launch and landing skills that will give you the confidence to explore and enjoy the wonders of Arizona and beyond!
The scenery is beautiful and we enjoy good flying conditions throughout the year. However, our training programs are site-independent and will prepare you to confidently and safely fly from just about any location. One of the unique aspects of powered paragliding is the inherent ability to launch and fly from just about anywhere. Although we serve all parts of Arizona, hosting out-of-town students is our specialty.

We are the only PPG School based in the North Phoenix/North Scottsdale/Lake Pleasant areas. The scenery is beautiful and we enjoy good flying conditions throughout the year. However, our training programs are site-independent and will prepare you to confidently and safely fly from just about any location. One of the unique aspects of powered paragliding is the inherent ability to launch and fly from just about anywhere. Although we serve all parts of Arizona, hosting out-of-town students is our specialty.
TRAINING COURSES
The goal of our beginner training course is to provide students with the skill and knowledge necessary to properly set up equipment, ground-handle the paraglider, launch and land with instructor assistance, and build enough proficiency to fly without instruction in just a few days. With our USPPA-certified instruction, students safely learn all aspects of Powered Paragliding that could otherwise take years to learn on their own. Important: as all types of flying are inherently dangerous to some degree, we cannot over-emphasize the importance of learning from a certified instructor. Individuals that attempt to teach themselves are accepting much greater risk than those who’ve participated in a formal training program.
Our full course fees include a comprehensive printed training manual covering all aspects of training, homework assignments during the course, paramotor setup, and maintenance information. We highly recommend Tips & Tricks, DVD’s to watch, practice during your own time, and various reading lists and resources for all Paradrenalin PPG course students. If you’re new to powered paragliding, we strongly suggest the Beginner Training Course, which leads to a USPPA PPG 2 Rating and provides increased instruction time and supervised solo flights.
We also offer group training and, if you can’t travel to Arizona, traveling Instructors who can come to you! Class sizes are limited to no more than 3 students per instructor; this ensures personalized instruction with up to 2 certified instructors. Please call for available training class commencement dates and group training discounts. Our training scheduling is usually flexible to meet your needs.
*Students must be dedicated when taking our fixed-price training courses. Finding some time to practice between lessons will maximize training and is required. You will need to follow our program and directions and complete all homework assignments in the timeframe agreed between us. Students in the Basic Beginner Course who are not fully dedicated to the program or do not complete solos within 7 instructor training days may be charged additional fees at the hourly instruction rate. In order to avoid additional training fees, all courses must be completed within 3 months of commencement. For your own benefit, do not commence any training until you can make the necessary time and mental commitment to quickly becoming a safe pilot. As with any flying training, long breaks will hinder your skills and confidence. Students who pose a safety risk to themselves or others may be expelled from training without a refund.
