I got acquainted with paragliding in the spring of 2002. Before that I was doing ballroom dancing. So rhythm and body control was always very important for me. I saw the first paraglider pilot in a French ski resort. I immediately knew that this is something that I have to try. Since then I’ve tried to acquire the technical details of stylish and spectacular way of flying on a high level. After two years I had committed myself to aerobatics flying and in 2005 I started competing together with Pal.
In the same year my instructor career has started and I also learned to use the D-bag and. I’ve had numerous jumps from helicopter, hot air balloon, trike and tandem.

I feel myself completely whole during flying. The new experiences always lead me ahead, and I endeavor for perfection. I love starting, landing on the top, flying out from the side of a cloud, I love gliding fast close to landmarks or just swinging over the canopy.’
