Written by Gavin McClurg, edited by the Cross Country team, and packed with insight from the very best, Advanced Paragliding is aimed at all intermediate pilots up, to help them build on their foundations and progress. There’s a big focus on aerology, meteorology, psychology, safety and risk-management. If you have 100 hours or more and want to go places in paragliding, this is for you. Advanced Paragliding draws on over eight years’ of in-depth interviewing with over 100 of the world’s best pilots. With Gavin’s incredible popularity among a listener base of 30,000+ pilots, this book is set to be a massive worldwide success. “This book is an international curated collection of voices, experiences, perspectives, and approaches to the sport that we all love. It is the undeniable power of the lead gaggle, with the best pilots in the world sharing their knowledge. And it is not just about techniques. It is also about the philosophy of adventure, the value of accepting risk and managing it, and the importance of training the mind as well as the body. It is about the flying life.” – Bill Belcourt 18 ‘secrets of champions’ chapters include incredible insights from Adel Honti, Alex Robé, Armin Harich, Bruce Goldsmith, Chrigel Maurer, Cody Mittanck, Dustin Martin, Honza Rejmanek, Jeff Shapiro, Jocky Sanderson, Kelly Farina, Maxime Bellemin, Nick Neynens, Pál Takáts, Rafael Saldini, Russ Ogden, Thomas Theurillat and Will Gadd “Every 20 years a seminal work is published that pushes the measuring tape forward in terms of knowledge base. When I first started flying, Dennis Pagen’s ‘Secrets of Champions’ gave me glimpses into the minds of the best hang glider pilots in the world. It helped me improve drastically. ‘Advanced Paragliding’ is a ‘Secrets of Champions’ on steroids. It features a true treasure trove of stories, teachings and other gems. Many of my paragliding idols reveal ultimate tips and tricks to fly far, fly safe, and fly fun. If you fly paragliders this book will make you better. Kudos to Gavin: this is a resource that will better our community.” – Nick Greece
