Get the right tool for developing ground control

Your own training wing

Ground-handling is the most important foundational skill for progressing safely through the sport, but paragliders generate a lot of power.


The solution is simple: use a wing designed for ground training! You can always sell it, once you are a master kiter, and it's way better than using an old large wing that handles poorly.

What I recommend

Try the BGD SEED, OZONE ROADRUNNER or INDEPENDENCE TRAINER. They are very durable and produce less power than a normal wing.


Use them with your normal harness and helmet to get proper impact protection, and get familiar with your launch position.


These wings are NOT certified for flying, but they work just like a paraglider. You develop sensory awareness, train your muscle memory for active flying and footwork, and will be able to play in a wider range of conditions.

Work through your drills

To help you get the most out of your ground training, follow my detailed programme of exercises to improve your kiting, strong wind launches, and develop mastery of your wing.
