The 2025 Schedule is Now Live!

The 2025 season runs from March until November and is different to previous years. We start off with two SkyWeek trips in Namibia in March and then a SkyWeek trip in Brazil in April. From late April until early June we will run six consecutive Paramotor courses in Spain. In June we will run a Paragliding Conversion course for Paramotor pilots, followed by a SkyWeek trip in France.

In July and August we will run eight consecutive courses in the UK. For those who can’t take time off during the week it is possible to sit a flexible beginner course split over weekends and ad hoc mornings/evenings midweek when the weather is suitable.

In September we return to France for another SkyWeek, followed by a Paragliding Conversion course, during which we will attend the Coupe Icare Festival. This is followed by an SIV Course in Turkey. From late September until early November we run five more Paramotor courses and an Instructor/Advanced course in Spain. The season ends in November with a SkyWeek trip in Brazil.

SKYWEEK INFORMATION

The SkyWeek Trips are designed for qualified Paramotor Pilots who have their own equipment. In France we stay flexible and chase the weather and therefore recommend Pilots bring a campervan or their own vehicle and a tent. In Brazil and Namibia we focus more on A to B Cross Country flights, while providing transport and logistical support. SkyWeeks are a fantastic way for Pilots to develop their skills and knowledge, while having a great time with likeminded people, as you can see from these films.
