What an incredible experience! Claude is amazing! He is extremely knowledgeable and comfortable doing what he does. I am a tour guide of the Malibu area and I have seen Claude in the sky numerous times while on my tour. After seeing him so many times, I decided to look up his company and give it a try myself! Sure I read the negative reviews, but I decided to be my own judge. & What an awesome time! I am so happy I decided to do this. I did the Paragliding experience. Here is how it will happen: I booked my flight time for 10:00am. Claude communicated (through text) with me that 9:30am would be better for takeoff. I was completely fine with that change. I realize he is the professional and knows when is the best time for flight. So I arrived at the meet up point on the Pacific Coast Highway on Carbon Beach. He has you meet at a spot next to a Coastal Access point on the PCH. (This is the same access point you will exit from after your flight when you land on the beach.) Claude will meet you at your vehicle and you will then drive together up the mountain to the launch site. This is a good time to talk, ask questions and get comfortable with each other. Yes, he will get in your car. He will have the gear with him also. It’s basically just an oversized, large backback. When you finally get to the launch site, way up the top of the mountain (about a 10-15min drive). He has you park in a secure location, then together, you both walk to the launch site (approximately 5 mins walk). I would recommend wearing comfortable shoes, because you’ll be walking on a mountain, so wear sneakers or shoes you would wear to go hiking. When you get to the launch site, he will set up the parachute and secure you in the harness and helmet. He will instruct you on the correct way to take off and land. When you are all strapped in, you’ll walk with him a short distance and the parachute will begin to catch the wind. At that point, you both run as fast as you can off the side of the mountain. Don’t jump! Just run off the side. If you jump, you could hit Claude in the face with your helmet. So just run! The parachute will catch you instantly and you’ll start to coast and Claude will glide you around and show you all the beautiful views of Malibu from a birds eye view! So amazing! You are welcome to bring a small camera or record from your cell phone. And don’t worry, you never feel like you’re going to drop anything. As long as you have a wrist strap for your camera or something similar, you’ll be fine. You feel very secure in the harness as your gliding. I will say, don’t make the same mistake as I did and constantly keep looking at your screen while you’re filming because it makes you nauseous. I learned the hard way unfortunately lol. But Claude was a pro and reacted instantly to help me through the nausea. And landing on the beach was super easy and soft. You have to stand up in the harness and begin to run as soon as you start to touch down on the sand. Try to match the speed of the parachute. Landing was smooth and easy and put us at the Coastal Access spot where we began. Then we go back out to the PCH and get an Uber or ride up in Claudes car back to the top of the mountain to get your vehicle. 10/10 experience and will HIGHLY recommend this to the passengers on my tour everyday. Claude is an extremely nice and professional guy and will make sure you’re comfortable the entire time. Thank you so much Claude! I’ll make sure to wave at you when I see you in the sky!Exery 5 years for my birthday I attempt something different, this year it was Paragliding. It was a great once in a lifetiime experience.
