With training led by world-renowned acro pioneer Raúl Rodríguez , you will work through essential manoeuvres, understand the true behaviour of your wing, and strengthen your reactions in critical situations. Groups are limited to six participants to ensure personalised instruction on every flight. Key Details 🧭 Duration: 4 days (including reserve weather day) Dates: Thursdays to Sundays, April–July 2026 Location: Panticosa – Tena Valley Flight altitude: 800 m above lake level Included flights: 6 SIV flights Theory: 5 hours of classroom sessions Group size: Max. 6 pilots Required experience: Minimum 30 flight hours Key Skills 🪂 Recognising and resolving in-flight risk situations Managing collapses, turbulence and loss of pitch control Using the emergency parachute correctly Developing safer reactions and reducing common pilot errors Understanding wing behaviour through practical manoeuvres Building confidence through structured repetition and feedback What to Expect 🪂 This professional SIV programme provides a controlled environment to understand the behaviour of your wing far beyond what normal flights allow. You will complete six flights over the lake at Panticosa, each guided via radio with constant supervision. Manoeuvres are introduced progressively, starting from basic collapses and pitch control and advancing toward more complex exercises depending on your level and confidence. A rescue boat remains active on the water at all times to ensure safety during every descent. After each training block, your manoeuvres are reviewed using GoPro video analysis, allowing you to understand small adjustments in technique, timing and input. Raúl’s instruction combines clear explanations with practical demonstrations, ensuring pilots at different stages of progression can develop safely. Classroom theory covers aerodynamic concepts, equipment safety, emergency parachute deployment, incident analysis and decision-making. Simulator sessions on the ground help you prepare for wing reactions before attempting them in the air. Location 📍 Training takes place in the Tena Valley, with take-offs selected to provide reliable altitude and clean air entry. The SIV flights launch from 800 metres above lake level, giving enough height for clear manoeuvre execution, video analysis and safe recovery. The valley’s layout provides predictable thermic behaviour… ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included Transport to take-off 5 hours of theory 6 SIV flights Rescue boat support Breakfasts and drinks during flights Video briefings and daily analysis Life jacket ### What’s not included Accommodation Personal equipment GoPro or recording accessories Travel to meeting point Emergency parachute inspection ### Kit list _None._ ## FAQs ### What level of experience do I need to join the SIV course? Pilots need at least 30 hours of autonomous flight experience and must be able to launch, control and land their wing safely. This ensures you can focus on manoeuvre execution rather than basic piloting skills. If you are unsure whether you meet the requirements, contact us for an assessment before booking. ### How many flights are included and what altitude is used? The course includes six SIV flights, each launching from approximately 800 metres above lake level. This altitude allows enough space for manoeuvres, corrections, stabilisation and controlled descent. Each flight is guided via radio and supported by a rescue boat. ### Who leads the training? Instruction is led by Raúl Rodríguez, a world-renowned acro pilot with more than 30 years of experience. His method is progressive, precise and focused on safety. Participants benefit from both in-air supervision and detailed debriefings on the ground. ### What manoeuvres will we practise? The manoeuvres vary according to pilot level but may include asymmetric collapses, front collapses, pitch control, negative exercises, spiral and spin management, B-stalls, stalls, twisted flight and optional emergency parachute use. All exercises are introduced progressively and adapted to personal skill and comfort. ### What equipment do I need to bring? A suitable wing in good condition, a harness with back protection, an emergency parachute inspected within the last 12 months and a 2-metre radio. A GoPro or similar camera with knee mount is essential for video analysis. Snow or mountain clothing is not necessary, but comfortable outdoor clothing is recommended. ### How important is video analysis? Video analysis is a core part of the course. Reviewing your manoeuvres allows you to identify body position, timing and brake input more clearly than from memory alone. This accelerates learning and helps integrate new reactions. Daily reviews are part of the structured programme. ### Is safety equipment provided? A life jacket is provided for all lake flights. A rescue boat is active throughout the training sessions to ensure immediate support if needed. Radio communication is maintained during all manoeuvres. ### How long does the course last? The course runs from Thursday to Sunday. Day 4 serves as a reserve day in case weather conditions require flight rescheduling or repetition of specific manoeuvres. ### Is accommodation included? Accommodation is not included, but support is available to help you find suitable nearby options in the Tena Valley. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Screenshot-2025-12-16-at-09.39.09.png - **Gallery image count**: 7 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
