Watch this video of Chris's first flight in it's original size.
It's normal for a student to forget to use his landing gear on his first flight!

Announcements
We are now offering Tandem Discovery Flights! We are using a new "Falcon 3" tandem glider. This is the latest and greatest tandem glider on the market. Please check our lessons page for prices. Now you can fly free as a bird with a highly qualified tandem instructor by your side.
We are now fully qualified to re-pack most modern reserve parachutes. If you are not sure what you have in your harness, bring it over and we can open it up and take a look. High Energy Sports recommends an inspection and re-pack every 6 months.
We are now up and running! Our new Hang Gliding Simulator will be at shows around the bay area for free demonstrations and ground schools. Please stay tuned for more "when and where" information.
We are now selling most brands of hang gliders and hang gliding equipment. We also have the new Magnum F14 Full-Face Communicator Headset with PTT and a few of the Hang Gliding Training Manuals by Dennis Pagen in stock.
