The philosophy

With its /advancedadventures campaign ADVANCE supports and publicises exceptional worldwide paraglider projects, to promote the sport and show it in all its variety. This is not primarily about performance, but concerns itself with human experience and personal adventure – the appeal of having ventured something new.
