Why High Performace & Freestyle Training?
More energy, more control, more style.
Want to learn a new manoeuvre under your acro wing or refine your trick technique? Want to master your two-liner safely in every flying situation? Or simply want some fresh input for your flying skills – regardless of the wing?
Our high-performance and freestyle training is aimed at pilots who want to noticeably improve their level. Through precise technique training, cleanly structured movement sequences and structured coaching, you will gain full control in dynamic flight conditions – whether acro flying or in turbulent conditions on a cross-country flight.
This will make you more confident, safer and more skilled in flying.

Head Of Training
Gabor Kezi is, as they say, a born pilot.
Ever since he learned to fly in 2002, he has been asking questions, experimenting and searching for answers directly from his glider and the aerodynamics around him – often far beyond what his flight instructor taught him.
He developed into a top acro pilot, winning the Acro World Cup in 2011 and later taking overall victory in the Acro World Cup Tour (Synchro) together with his team partner Pál Takáts. His outstanding achievements also include pioneering work in tandem infinity tumbling – a real milestone in the sport.
Becoming a flight instructor was the logical next step for him; he had basically been teaching long before he held the official licence in his hands. Gabor is an exceptionally calm and intuitive teacher – he gives exactly the right impulse at exactly the right moment, often in that crucial half-second that makes all the difference.

Training content
We develop your training plan together with you – based on your current skill level and personal goals. On request, we can focus on topics such as high wingovers, pronounced pitch movements, spins, stall points, full stalls or flybacks – exercises that are also relevant for mastering a two-liner – while also taking into account the special requirements of flying in a pod harness.
In freestyle and acro, you set your own priorities: helicopters, misty flips, asymmetrical SATs or tumblings – Gabor accompanies you with a trained eye, helpful tips and methodical step-by-step instructions on the way to safe and clean execution.
Mental training of movement sequences, video analysis and individually tailored feedback are central components of this training – they deepen your learning process and make your progress sustainable.
Rescue boat
During our safety training sessions, our lifeboat is always ready for action and can reach you in a matter of moments in the event of a water landing.
Training schedule
Day 1: Course begins at 1 p.m. in our course room at the Hotel Al Molino, preparation day for the training
Welcome and introductions, distribution of rental equipment (radio, life jacket, etc.), theory sessions (training flights over water, flight manoeuvres, extreme flight situations, rescue parachute), introduction to the flying site, individual check of harness adjustment and rescue parachute release (compatibility check).
Days 2 to 5: Training days
The morning schedule includes manoeuvre briefings, in-depth theory sessions and the finalisation of your training plan. This is usually followed by 2 training flights over water. During the daily video analysis session afterwards, you will review your own flights. The schedule is subject to change in order to adapt the daily plan as effectively as possible to the prevailing weather conditions.
Day 6: Final day
The last training flights are followed by the return of the equipment and a final briefing. The course is expected to end between 4 p.m. and 5 p.m.
Flexibility:
The course schedule will, of course, be adapted to the weather conditions of the week as best as possible, which may lead to changes. If we do not have flying weather on a particular day, we will use the time for mental and theoretical training – there is always plenty to learn. And one or two exciting lectures from our team are sure to enrich the day.
Communication:
The majority of our team and flight instructors are multilingual, and we are pleased to offer our training courses in various languages (German, English and Spanish). In this case, the group will be divided for technical briefings and explanations; otherwise, the course week will benefit from a multicultural atmosphere. Please refer to the dates for details.
We use a WhatsApp group to communicate times and meeting points during the training week and you will receive an invitation to join this group.
