Our Story
For us, paragliding is more than just a business. It's a way of life we want to share with the world.
AntiGravity Paragliding is a leading paragliding school located at India's premier paragliding site — Bir Billing, Himachal Pradesh. Founded by national champion pilots Sushant and Vicky Thakur, the school is built on a single promise: make every student a safe, confident, independent pilot.
Each year, we train and certify over 100 students from all around the world, leveraging 15 years of flying experience and a deep expertise in Himalayan weather patterns and wind dynamics. Students range in age from 14 to 60 years old — paragliding has no barriers here.
We don't cut corners. Not on equipment. Not on time spent on the ground learning. Not on safety. Our reputation has been built one satisfied student at a time — and we intend to keep it that way.
