January 2012 Newsletter

Happy New year everyone! 2011 ended on a good note for all of the SkySchool Team; Alex went to Chile for a month of acro Paragliding and ended up throwing his reserve twice, the footage of which can be seen here! Kester went to Venezuela and Rob escaped to India. We are now gearing up for 2012 and have plenty of plans:

Courses in the UK: April and August

This year is going to be slightly different as we are running 3 x UK courses over Easter in the UK from the 27th March to 15th April before heading over to Spain for May, June and July. This will be a good opportunity for those who can't make it to Spain to do some intensive training. We then return to the UK in August for 3 more weeks of training. Details and exact dates can be found here: http://www.skyschooluk.com/Courses/Paramotoring-Courses-UK/Paramotoring-Lessons-UK/

Courses in Spain: May, June and July

We will be in Spain for 3 months, 2 of which will be spent running Paramotoring courses from the 29th April until the 1st July. This is followed by a Paragliding course/trip for beginners right through to advanced pilots in Organya from the 1st - 8th July.

Off Road Motorbiking Tours: May, June and July

SkySchool's latest development for 2012 is the Off Road Motorbike Tours. We will have a small number of Honda XR 400s' and 250's as well as all necessary protective equipment in order to offer bespoke 1, 2, 3 and 6 day Tours of the eastern Pyrenees. Those of you who have visited us in Spain before already know what the location is like and will hopefully agree that the idea of Off Road Biking is a no brainer!

Flying and Biking Trips: July

This year SkySchool instructor Kester Haynes is organising the Rough Ride Bull Run which is an off Road Motorbiking Trip from the east to the west of Spain in time for the Pamplona Bull Run. The dates are 8th - 15th July. We will be providing a limited number of bikes and equipment for hire as well as a support vehicle for all personal kit, spares, tents etc. Anyone interested in coming on this trip should contact: kesterhaynes@yahoo.co.uk

We are then running a Paramotor Trip over the D Day beaches in France from the 26th - 30th July. For further information visit: http://www.skyschooluk.com/flying-trips/paramotor-battefield-tours/

We hope as many of you can join us on or several of courses and trips this year. We wish you all blue skies and safe landings for 2012.
