“The race got serious right from day one.

Temperatures climbed above 40°C, there wasn’t a breath of wind, and we had a long hike ahead of us. To be honest, there were moments when flying wasn’t even on my mind anymore. I was just trying to survive the heat.

When I finally reached launch, I still wasn’t sure whether we would even be able to take off because of the strong winds in the forecast. So when I finally clipped in and launched, I mainly felt relieved that I didn’t have to keep hiking in that heat.

But the flight itself was anything but easy. Every meter of altitude had to be earned against the wind. Eventually I had to land again and start hiking up the next mountain, where somehow the heat felt even worse than before.

That’s Hike & Fly.

You can prepare as much as you want, but in the end, things almost never go according to plan.
One of my favorite moments of the entire race happened while flying with a huge group of griffon vultures. We climbed together in the same thermal, and I couldn’t stop smiling. I even found myself shouting with pure excitement. For a brief moment, I completely forgot about the race. There were only these incredible birds, the mountains, and the feeling of being lucky enough to share the sky with them.

Moments like these are exactly why I love this sport.”

“I’m blown away by Synchronized Acro Paragliding; flying, with my cousin Horacio is always different, fresh, and better than expected.

During these training sessions, we’ve explored the limits of proximity flying even to the point of touching; getting any closer would be dangerous.”

“The first step is the one that matters the most.

When I think back to the X-Pyr today, the first thing that comes to mind honestly isn’t that I became the first woman ever to reach the finish line.

I think about the winter before the race.

I had been sick for months and, until shortly before the start, I honestly didn’t know if I was ready. While everyone else was training, I was just hoping to get healthy again. On top of that, I had never flown in the Pyrenees before.

Everything I had heard sounded intimidating: strong winds, huge valleys, unforgiving terrain, violent thunderstorms. Even my support team had never worked at an X-Pyr or any Hike & Fly race before.

The next launch. The next thermal. My only goal was to make it safely to bed every evening and enjoy the journey.”

Over the next few days, we’re taking you behind the scenes of ELISA DEUTSCHMANN ’s incredible journey. From unpredictable weather to sheer mental grit, discover what it truly took for her to conquer the Pyrenees and become the first woman in history to cross the X-Pyr finish line.

“There are some days you never forget.

For me, July 30, 2026, was exactly that kind of day.

Only a few flights after switching to my new Ozone Vibe GT XS, I took off from the Emberger Alm, without realizing that this day would become one of the most beautiful and memorable days of my paragliding career so far.

After 4 hours and 28 minutes, I landed, having logged an 83.16 km FAI triangle in my flight book. For an experienced cross-country pilot, that might just be a good flight. For me, after just two years of paragliding and flying a Mid-B wing, it was a very special personal milestone.

This flight showed me once again that with the Vibe GT, I’ve found the perfect wing for my progression as a pilot”

Huge congratulations Jana Brieger for this amazing flight. Here’s to many more unforgettable days under your Vibe GT!

Two Ultralite 5 in the sunset look better than one!”

Tilen Ceglar and Anna Berger win 18th FAI European Paragliding Championship 2026

The 18th FAI European Paragliding Championship concluded in Krushevo, North Macedonia, on August 19 after nine high-speed tasks across the valley between Krushevo and Prilep. With task routes ranging from 68 to 105 km, 130 pilots encountered strong thermal activity and fast final glides, making it one of the fastest continental championships on record.

Slovenian pilot Tilen Ceglar took the overall European Champion title flying the Ozone Enzo 3 and Submarine harness combo. Demonstrating remarkable consistency, Ceglar finished in the top three across five tasks to win by 13.5 points ahead of Switzerland’s Roger Aeschbacher in second, also flying an Enzo 3 and Submarine, and Spain’s Alvaro Romero Camacho in third.

Emphasising a disciplined mindset amidst intense gaggle flying, Ceglar noted that pilots should focus on their performance and fly in a way that they can be proud of every single day. His strong individual showing also helped power Team Slovenia to gold in the Nations category, ahead of North Macedonia in second and Spain in third.

In the Women’s class, local pilot Anna Berger secured the gold medal flying the Ozone Enzo 3 and Submarine harness. Managing demanding physical conditions and tactical line choices throughout the nine tasks, Berger explained that “consistency was the main element of my success” as she focused on controlled thermalling and risk management. Germany’s Elisa Deutschmann, who won 6 out of 9 tasks, took the silver medal and Italy’s Silvia Buzzi Ferraris claimed bronze, both flying the Enzo 3.

“9 hours and 52 minuets, 200 miles flying through the mountains of Utah. Every spring I still wonder if I have what it takes to fly all day, in big conditions. The drive, mental endurance, knowledge and skill are all things that I worry will fade. I’m happy to say that a big day out is still totally enthralling for me.

When Utah delivers it’s amazing!”
