Flying Karlis Bewertungen 

Even though the weather was a little against us we still would go out and fly even if it was just raining we made the most out of what we were dealing with whether it was rain or some other obstacle. I think we all had a great time doing this together and it definitely unlocked a new part of us knowledge and skill wise in the world of paragliding.

What an extraordinary instructor, pilot, mentor and just incredible human being - words dont do justice for this walking encyclopedia of Paragliding knowledge. My sons and I spent 3 days doing an SIV course and then an XC refresher with Karlis and his team in Italy last week and found both so valuable. The organization was flawless, the tutoring clear, precise and very well structured , the support at takeoff , in the air , landing and post flight briefings well thought out and comprehensive. My sons and i will be continuing our Paragliding journey with additional courses with Karlis, Cecile and Krisjanis without doubt - thanks team

Content and post sale support exceeded expectations.

I’ve been flying for 10 years but needed confidence progressing to XC. I felt it was money well spent to do private training and Karlis was recommended by a number of people. He’s also highly regarded by Flyeo and BGD. Karlis spent 2 hours doing ground schooling and then coordinated my flight from the ground. Within 45 minutes he’d guided me through efficient thermaling and I was at cloud base. We also talked about meteo and judging gentler conditions for progression.

I would highly recommend a dedicated day of training with Karlis if you either beginning, progressing or wanting to fine tune to competition standard, given his numerous national championships wins.

I have participated in two Karlis courses - SIV in Italy, Lake Garda and Progression course in France, Chabre. It was a great choice.
SIV was well organised, with video records, rescue boat, theoretical knowledge about manoeuvres and reserve packing as well as a lot of practical experience in the air. It was awesome that Karlis was adopting his program to each of us individually. Doing manoeuvres at your own pace better stays in memory and muscle memory too. We were flying as much as weather allowed us in those three days.
I will always remember Karlis calm voice on the radio at SIV, even when I had to throw the reserve and after it - ''enjoy the swim'' .
When I was in the progression course in France there was a heat wave. It was so hot and flyable at Chabre just for two days, but Karlis was creative and we were able to fly every day of that week in different mountains. So great job Karlis! Everyone was happy.
Karlis has wide knowledge about weather and how to better work with people from psychological aspects.
Overall experience was great with Karlis, I highly recommend him as paragliding mentor and for SIV.

An awesome and very knowledgeable instructor who pushes just enough to get you out of your comfort zone. He made sure that we could fly every day by taking us to different spots. Everything was well organized.

Fast and easy online shop, got my pdf guide straight away.
Quality product with extensive informations about each place, dedicated maps with detailed explanations on how to fly there, a real must for any autonomous pilot ! Well done there, thanks so much for sharing and spreading all this knowledge.

Its rare to find someone both competent and able to teach properly. Karlis has a unique ability to adjust to your level and make you progress while sharing his knowledge. His passion for the sport translates in all his different courses, be it SIV, progression, one on one, or grand adventure. He is genuinely committed to make you progress!

I found Karlis' book about St Andre extremely helpful & informative. it showed very clearly how to progress & fly distance in St Andre & without I would have been flying around aimlessly wondering where the hell to go. If you're going to St Andre you NEED this book - simple.

His true love to this sport made him a great teacher. 12 hours a Day giving off his experience. The group is a great way to go travel together and get local guidence in new areas and see sites i wouldent have gone to. Plus the pick up by van when you bomb out is priceless 😅. I Will come back for more🙌

Constructive, knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, insightful.
With humor, too.
