If you are in Australia and want to learn to fly, this is the place to go.

I flew from perth to get trained by Dave. It's not only the super competent and welcoming staff, the actual paragliding spots around Laurieton are just splendid. Go fly!

If you’re thinking about doing a course, put High Adventure on the top of your list! You won’t regret it.

There are so many launch sites around Laurieton and we flew everyday. And when the wind wasn’t right for the launch sites we still flew on the winch! It was an unreal experience and Dave was an absolute legend!

Amazing experience - I learnt heaps. Really improved my skills, kite handling and launching. I’m so much more confident and skilled at launching and landing in tricky winds. You won’t find better instruction. And what a great place to learn to fly, there are so many sites to fly - farm, beach, sea cliffs, and mountains.

Simply an awesome experience.

Dave is a patient instructor who knows his topic very well. Highly recommended and would go back again just to fly or for further training. The school accommodation is great, Dave and Nikki were great hosts who made the stay there amazing.

I completed the PPG course with Dave and the learning experience was fantastic! The course was flexible and took every opportunity to work with the weather, the skill sets of the group and above all keeping everyone safe. Dave was the calm voice in your ear when you were off the ground and knew exactly what to say to keep you up longer and enjoy your time in the air! 100% recommend!

What a life changing experience. Dave was patient, understanding and professional at all times. One of the best things you will ever do in your life. We never felt rushed or like we were taking too long. Dave certainly makes the experience a rewarding, pleasurable and memorable experience for any ages. Our 15 year old son did it with us and loved every minute of it. Trust the Thrust and rely on Dave ✌🏻

My 14yo daughter and I completed our PG course with Dave. There is a rollercoaster of emotions that comes with learning a new skill, but the calm demeanor and safe space that Dave created during this course was unparalleled. I would highly recommend Dave to anyone who is intimidated taking to the skies for PG, PPG and tandem endorsements. Can’t wait to get back up to Laurieton and fly with the crew again :)

Dave was very calm and patient with all of us whilst we were learning how to fly. The expertise and knowledge was 2nd to none and we felt confident and safe at all times knowing that we were in great hands. Highly recommend this course to anyone that wishes to learn how to fly or hone and improve their current skills.
