Welcome to Bay Area Hang Gliding

At Bay Area Hang Gliding, we strive to help those interested in Hang Gliding learn more about the sport. We help students get in the air quickly and safely. We have very reasonable rates and highly qualified instructors that will help you become a USHPA rated pilot. If you are in the San Francisco / San Jose area, we look forward to having you join us and experience the joy of foot launched free flight.

USHPA Advanced Instructor

Announcements

Christmas has come and gone. We still have one of the best gifts your loved ones will ever receive. These would be great for an anniversary, birthday or even bachelor party. Gift Certificates for either a Tandem Discovery Flight or a half day Hang Gliding Lesson are now available. Give us a call and we will have yours in the mail today!

We now sell all brands of hang gliders and hang gliding equipment. From North Wing hang gliders to custom fitted harnesses from High Energy Sports, we can help you purchase the equipment you need to get started.

We now offer Tandem Discovery Flights! We are using a new "Falcon 3" tandem glider. This is the latest and greatest tandem glider on the market. Please check our lessons page for prices. Now you can fly free as a bird with a highly qualified tandem instructor by your side.

We are now qualified to re-pack most modern reserve parachutes. If you are not sure what you have in your harness, bring it over and we can open it up and take a look. High Energy Sports recommends an inspection and re-pack every 6 months.

Our new Hang Gliding Simulator will be at shows around the bay area for free demonstrations and ground schools. Please stay tuned for more "when and where" information.
