Sepp Nindl
Even apart from professional tandem flying, aviation and flying like a bird has dominated Sepp’s life for more than 20 years: attempting new distance flying records in Brazil and the Alps, when learning new aerobatic maneuvers (acrobatics) or when climbing mountains and then flying from the highest peaks in the Alps, aviation dominates his life.
In combination with skydiving and base jumping, he continuously trains his flying and free-fall skills. Even after the tandem flights, the motivation often doesn’t stop and people still train diligently and fly with friends. Here are a few nice experiences:
- Large cross-country flights in our Alps (FAI triangles):
- Stoderzinken with 285 km – personal record
- Zillertal with 276 km
- Antholz with 246 km
- Numerous Alpine crossings with paragliders
- Long distance flights in Brazil (Personal Best: 441 and 425 km)
- Hike & Fly from the highest peaks of our Alps (Großglockner, Großes Wiesbachhorn, Hocheiser, Großvenediger, Kitzsteinhorn summit, Ortler, and much more)
- Adventures and travel with the paraglider in South America, Australia, India, Nepal, Iceland, South Africa, Norway, …
- Acrobatic flights and constant training of new aerobatic maneuvers (Cork, Misty, McTwist, Helico, Infinity Tumbling)
- Professional photographer, skydiver, motor glider and basejumper
Tom Seeber
Short and sweet: “I fly because I want to be free like a bird … and tandem paragliding because I want to make people happy…”
And our free spirit Tom always puts you in a great mood!
Christina Druck
Christina is joy of life and motivation personified. She flies because she wants to feel freedom in the air. She loves taking her paraglider with her when she travels and explores the world.
She has been flying since 2010, is a tandem pilot and flight instructor, mental trainer and graphic designer.
Why she likes to take you into the air – it’s simple: “I want to pass on a piece of all the beautiful experiences that I associate with flying – give you a change of perspective and show you that indescribable feeling up there.”
Winni Pottendorfer
Winni has already had many interesting experiences, for example on icy walls at 6000 m or in Ironman competitions. For him, however, nothing comes close to the direct feeling of flying with a paraglider “and besides, it’s not that strenuous” 😉
Despite more than a thousand flights in different variations of the sport, every moment in the air is a gift for him.
He wants to convey or share this and is a full-time flight instructor and tandem pilot.
David Geieregger
“Paragliding allows me to see the mountains in a whole new way and with the tandem I can take passengers with me and show them what I love about flying.”
I have flown around 2000 flights since 2019.
Gliding into the valley after a strenuous climb will always be a special experience for me.
The versatility of paragliding means you never get bored. Be it on long cross-country flights, showing a passenger the fascination of flying or flying just above the ground with a speed glider.
David Perez Dominguez
David has been living his dream for 20 years and enjoys the cooler temperatures (compared to southern Spain) here on the Schmittenhöhe in summer. With a big smile he shows his guests his know-how and makes any insecurity in his passengers disappear.
Eugen Wolf
Flight instructor and tandem pilot as well as an enthusiastic cross-country pilot. Eugen supports us every year and opened his own check and paragliding service company Paragliding Service Wolf in autumn 2023. He is therefore also highly trained in terms of testing and equipment technology.
Fabian Reichholf
“Flying in all its diversity is freedom and life!”
No matter whether it’s a tandem flight, a quick hike&fly or long-distance flights – every free minute is spent in the air with Fabian. The Oberpinzgauer loves nature, the mountains and passing on the indescribable feeling of flying to his passengers.
- Flying since 2014
- 260km FAI triangle through the Pinzgau
- Victory in the overall ranking in the 33-hour “on-board air race” competition
- Numerous flights from the highest mountains in Austria
Alfi Aigner
“Standing at the summit is something beautiful, but then flying from there to the valley gives you a new life.”
Our cheerful Alfi will welcome you at the shuttle bus/landing site where we meet you and will be happy to answer any questions you may have and then take us to the cable car.
Experiences with Falken Air
Natalia Buman23. Januar, 2024.Wonderful, unforgettable experience! Very helpful and friendly staff! Thank you very much!!!Günter Scholze13. Januar, 2024.Ich hatte heute 11.1.24 meinen ersten Paragliding Tandemflug von der Schmittenhöhe/Zell am See in's Tal. Der Pilot war sehr auf Sicherheit bedacht und während dem Flug hat er tolle Erinnerungsfoto gemacht. Freue mich schon auf's Frühjahr um einen längeren Flug als heute zu machen. Also ich kann Falken Air nur weiter empfehlen. Update 13.1.24 Ich bin immer noch fasziniert von meinem Flug. Eigentlich hatte ich ja zuerst doch etwas Angst davor... aber weil ich es vorher schon ein paar Leuten gesagt habe bin ich dann doch geflogen. ...und es war einfach die totale Freiheit zwischen Himmel und Erde. Glaube, ich habe mich wie mein Krafttier (chin.) der Adler gefühlt. So unheimlich frei und... bin einfach immer noch sprachlos, so schön....🙂🍀🙂Chris Wearmouth6. Januar, 2024.They were top notch.
