Negative experience: We had session with Sasha and we were not happy with our experience. We only flew for 30 mins and after that, he took us to another site and we could not fly as he does not have small unit for my daughters but he promised us to reschedule it and it never happened. He keeps giving excuses about weather and it has been month now. Its very hard to believe that he could not find a single day in last 30 days. I am pretty sure if I call him for another number and book new session with payment, he will give us session immediately. Please see screenshots of chat. Please don't book with him as he is not reliable person. He promised my daughters and he did not keep his words. It's not really good to do with 18 and 12 years kids.

Fantastic experience: I received a paragliding voucher as a gift and Sasha was very patient and communicative as we tried to find a date to fly. On the day he was incredibly knowledgeable, teaching me different aspects of paragliding throughout the day. He taught me the basic theory on the drive out of London, how to control the kite on the ground, and what to look out for and how to steer while flying. I felt very safe both while flying and when deciding whether the conditions were safe enough to take off. With paragliding you are at the mercy of the elements on the day but we definitely squeezed as much out of the day as possible. The experience itself was amazing and exactly what I had been hoping for: the great feeling of being airborne, the great views, and the seeming effortlessness of flying. Sasha even went the extra mile to get me some hayfever tablets which I had forgotten to bring. Overall he felt more like a friend at the end of the whole thing. I would recommend the experience to anyone and would definitely book again through paragliding.community

Fantastic experience: Sasha gave me and my two kids a memorable day’s introduction to paragliding at the end of August. Following a wait for the wind to calm, we each had two substantial flights along the coast at Newhaven. We felt in safe hands and Sasha’s patience and energy levels were impressive throughout. Afterwards, he even took the time to voluntarily compile a fantastic video record of the day for us. He offers exceptional value, given what others are paying elsewhere for single flights. And he’s a lovely guy to boot. Thank you Sasha!

Fantastic experience: Today’s day with Sasa is unforgettable!!

Fantastic experience: What an incredible experience to float through the sky, feeling super safe and equipped with all the necessary tools, information and guidance that Sasha so brilliantly shared throughout the day. It was otherworldly, refreshing and inspiring. I learnt a lot and loved flying and I would and will highly recommend to others as a wonderful and memorable day.

Fantastic experience: The best day ever, thank you Sasha.

Fantastic experience: I flew with him today and it was an absolutely amazing day. He is a professional and dedicated trainer. I advise everyone to join his school and fly with him

Fantastic experience: Had a fantastic day tandem paragliding flights with Sasha yesterday. In the morning the weather was great and we managed a short and a much longer tandem flight. The views were amazing and Sasha narrated throughout, explaining what the winds were doing and what we were looking out for. Although the wind was not so kind in the early afternoon, Sasha used the time to teach us ground handling, to get a better understanding of the way the glider worked. Great fun, highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Very nice instructor, unforgettable trip, excellent experience!

Fantastic experience: I can't thank Sasha enough for my incredible experience paragliding. My booking kept getting delayed because of the weather and covid, but he was incredibly patient and really went above and beyond to make sure it would happen. He took us to some really beautiful locations, taught us what it takes to safely paraglide, and made the flights so special. And all amazing value for money! I couldn't have asked for more. Sasha's energy and love for paragliding is infectious, and he makes the day an experience you won't forget.

Fantastic experience: Initially I thought this is a scam because Sasha offered a full day experience for the same price others offer a 20 minutes tandem flight. But because of his reviews I gave it a shot and it was amazing. From the pick up in london, to the useful safety instructions while driving south, to the 4 flights during the day all the way to driving me home to london again - everything went smoothly. It was a great experience that I can 100% recommend. Thanks Sasha for the amazing day up in the sky.

Fantastic experience: It was one of the best experiences i ever had in my life, nothing as I expected, i had a great instructer , very calm and very patient, and i think he went way to much out of his way to show me places and to make me love and enjoy this day . Absolutely will do it again

Fantastic experience: A thoroughly enjoyable day! Sasha is incredibly knowledgeable, knows his trade, clearly explains everything and listens to you. Be sure to bring sun cream and probably avoid having too big a breakfast (milk in particular) as it can potentially make you feel queasy while in flight.

Fantastic experience: I had a great time learning with Sasha. Clear and direct input on what you are doing and how you need to improve. Takes the time to teach you my helping you to actually understand the reasons for doing things instead of just doing them. I learned more in one morning than I did on my all previous training.

Fantastic experience: I bought my boyfriend the paragliding experience for his birthday and the experience did not disappoint! The day was perfect from beginning to end. Sasha and Johnny were the perfect hosts: Safety is always the top priority but we had so much fun. Sasha and Johnny, thank you so much for an amazing day, Jvonne said it was definitely up there with his best birthday celebrations and I can't stop telling everyone what an amazing experience it was. Can't wait to do it again!

Fantastic experience: I travelled to Greece with Sasha for one-to-one post CP training. The trip was very well-organised, with good planning ahead as well as full flexibility to adapt to changing wind and weather and maximise opportunities for flying. Sasha is an excellent teacher, he is very patient and highly skilled at matching the individual needs of the student. In five days, I crossed the gap between being qualified as a Club Pilot and feeling confident to actually do it. In particular, his focus on ground handling is massively important and beneficial. Also, narrated tandem flights during the trip helped me to learn alongside Sasha in the air. As a solo female on the trip, I always felt comfortable and safe. I really enjoyed seeing the country, learning a little of the language and meeting local people. Sasha has a talent for finding the best places to eat and every meal was a feast. I highly recommend the tandem flights, post CP training and trip ... I will be doing it all again soon, so I might see you there! Julie B
