What flying means to me:
I am a self-confessed paragliding junky. When I  tried my glider for the first time at our practice slope in 2003, I was caught. No matter if ground handling, flying for pleasure, tandem flying with relatives and friends, distance flying, competition flying, lately also with motor gliders - everything that has to do with paragliding fascinates me.

Also the friendships that developed throughout the years mean a lot to me. In the year 2006, together with some friends we have founded a paragliding club, the OÖ. FSV Bodenlos (www.fsv-bodenlos.com).
