Memorable Paragliding Tandem Parties & Groups

There is so much that we offer...
We will host a tandem party for you and your friends here at Seattle Paragliding, immediately adjacent to the Tiger Mountain Paragliding landing field. Allocate 2.5 hours of time, from the time your car arrives to the landing field, until it departs.

We will show you a great time!


To start, we can entertain your party with fun video in our well equipped Class Room (Wall Maps, Huge Screen TV, topographical model of Tiger & more.

 


... then on to our harness barn where you will all sit & laugh together as  your gang gathers more first hand insight about what to expect on your fast approaching tandem flights.

 


All will sign a waiver

 


... then walk 100 yards to the adjacent Tiger Mountain landing field.

 



We will have chairs & tables umbrellas set up in the landing field for you and your entourage.

 


Together, we can have as big (a pot luck, Dominos or catered) party as you desire...

... right into the night!

 


To continue...
we will all get on the Tiger Shuttle ($17 per person paid as you board) that will take us from the Tiger Landing Field, up Tiger Mountain to the launch.

 


You may otherwise choose to hike up to launch via the Chirico Trail (1.5 mile / 1,700' / 45 min to hour climb and pay $10 to the Tiger Shuttle for the 75 lbs of tandem gear and tandem instructor to be shuttled up on your behalf.

We will have one instructor dedicated to each of you so that we may endeaver to be in the air all at the same time... whether there are 2 or 10 of you.

One of my favorite tandem clips that we shot here at Tiger Mountain: video clip: "Fly Away" Ashes Dispersal with all family members flying tandem, each with an instructor, in the air at the same time.
