A paragliding community for pilots who want to fly with less fear and more confidence
+2 more

Most paragliding advice is technical, yet the gap between the flying you want and the flying you do is often mental. Wingmates is a community for pilots who feel held back by fear, anxiety or self-doubt in the air.
Run by paragliding instructor and Flow Coach Grant Smith, it uses the Inner Game approach: remove what gets in the way rather than pile on more instruction. Pilots bring their flight stories, sticking points and questions, and work through them with Grant and other pilots around the world. It costs $60 a month or $150 a quarter, with a 7-day free trial.
Outcomes
- Fly with more confidence and less fear
- Turn anxiety in the air into calm focus
- Stop mental interference from limiting your flying
- Build a new relationship with fear
- Enter flow more often on every flight
