"I fly because it releases my mind from the tyranny of petty things." ~Antoine de Saint-Exupery
In the mountains of the eastern Fraser Valley less than 2 hours from downtown Vancouver, BC you'll find me paragliding every possible day, either with like-minded friends or sharing my favourite sport with others on a tandem flight.
When not flying locally I throw my wing on a plane or in the back of my jeep and spend time traveling the world in search of adventures and meeting new flying friends. Thanks for visiting my website - take a look around and come flying some time!

Tandem Flights in the Fraser Valley
A sunny day, light winds and puffy white clouds - the ideal flying day! Weather permitting we generally fly from March through October, any day of the week.

Summer 2011: While I was competing at the Rat Race in Oregon, USA this year, a film crew captured some great moments and created this clip for Oregon Field Guide. It was my first time making goal at this competition (I ended up doing it 2 more times that week) and it was pretty cool that they got it on camera. Enjoy!
