Damien Lacaze - Paragliding instructor

I come from the South-West, from rugby, from the Pyrenees. These small, steep and wild mountains allowed me to discover mountaineering in all its forms. When I was younger, I wanted to be a Guide, like my Dad. I took up paragliding to go down mountains. I quickly understood that the funniest thing was to jump them… I quickly became passionate about long-distance flights. Then by the competitions that I have been practicing at a high level since 2011. I live in the Hautes Alpes, the dream place for lovers of wide open spaces, still a little wild. There is a particularly favorable aerology for exceptional flights.
