Top Gun Flight School

At iParaglide Top Gun Flight School, we take pride in having taught over 1900 paragliding students in our 26 years of operation.

We are the the longest running school based in Metro Vancouver. Due to our central location, we are the only school that flies all of the relevant kiting parks, training hills and mountains within a 3 hour radius of Vancouver.  This empowers pilots to get to know the key training and flying spots early, optimizes and accelerates learning, and allows them to grow into great future pilots.  

We have the reputation of being an industry leader with an emphasis on engineered safety systems, quality instruction, the finest equipment and a positive learning environment for fun and empowering flying.

We offer the highest level of accreditation, with Senior HPAC and Advanced USHPA paragliding instructors, who coach from first flight to expert paraglider pilots and teach and qualify new paragliding instructors.

Hi,

After months of rain, looks like a sunny long weekend coming up with a fantastic evening of paragliding films to keep your mind soaring while your feet may have been grounded for a while. 

Some great new film entries on paragliding at the upcoming VIMFF (Vancouver International Mountain Film Festival) this Saturday (Feb.9) afternoon Adventures in the Southern Hemisphere and Saturday night's Big Air Show. It's at the Rio theatre at Broadway and Commercial.

We will be MCing the event, and look forward to meeting new and familiar faces.

We will also be presenting our paragliding multimedia presentation:The Sky is Your Playground:

Join iParaglide as we take you on a guided tour of paragliding: from taking your first steps off the ground to flying ever greater adventures in the sky.  With dramatic images from around the world and breathtaking videos that are sure to inspire all that seek to soar with the hawks and eagles.   

The Show starts at 19:30 but doors open at 18:30 and early arrival is recommended as sometimes the show is sold out by 19:00.  VIMFF details are here. 

Looking forward to seeing you there!
