These guys did the impossible: they taught me to fly. I mean really. Theoretical guidance, practical flights in different weather conditions (strong wind, crosswind, no wind, gusty wind, raining, fog), valuable feedback, numerous tips eventually did the job Thanks to the all staff. My special thanks to Bowen, Charlie, Drake, Nick.

Amazing time! Instructors were knowledgeable and attentive. We had Dalton! He was fantastic. My 10 year old loved it so much she came back a second day! Thank you for an amazing experience.

Awesome experience! The staff were professional, patient, funny, and welcoming! Our 3 kids (ages 18, 20, 22). enjoyed beginner lessons on the dunes at Jockey's Ridge. Charlie did the ground school and E was their instructor for the flights. The instructors were energetic and positive throughout the 3 hours we were at the park. They were so helpful and kind throughout the experience in spite of the heat. They gave great instruction and carried the hang glider up the hill after each flight ready to go again. Our kids loved it so much they scheduled a 2000 ft tandem flight for 2 days later at the Cotton Gin, Jarvisburg. There the staff was just as welcoming and fun. We met Billy who gave the safety briefing, Eli who drove us on the golf cart out to the field, Jonny who flew the plane and gave us a bit of history about the place. He was so kind and patient and did a great job flying the kids on their 2000 ft Tandem flight. Our daughter was celebrating her birthday and he made it extra special for her. They all treated us like family. The tandem pilot was Andy who did a great job instructing and making the flight one they will never forgot! The other tandem pilot, Mike was just as nice. We were able to purchase video from the flights as well (bring cash or check for the video card but it will be worth it-there is an ATM nearby). It was so refreshing to see a group of people who love what they do and want to make sure you love it, too. Thank you for making our vacation one to remember!
