Juan Laos Juan has been involved in aviation since 1983, when he began piloting small aircraft. Ten years later he transferred his knowhow to paragliding and began advancing in the sport. Today he is a USHGA certified advanced instructor, instructor training program administrator, tandem instructor, and tandem administrator. Juan says, I strive to make our instructional programs comfortable, fun, and informative. I'm very proud of the fact that none of our students has ever had an accident while under our instruction or after they have left our tutelage. I have to admit I get a bit jealous when I see one of our former students flying better than I do. It also makes me very proud! |
Klaus Schluter Klaus first saw a paraglider in flight from the deck of his chalet while vacationing in Austria in 1989. Today, Klaus is a USHPA P5 Advanced Paragliding Instructor and Tandem Paragliding Instructor. Having been involved heavily in a variety of other sports, paragliding seemed a natural fit. "I skied in international competitions, climbed mountains in remote parts of the world, and was heavily involved with adventure sports; but when I first experienced paragliding I knew I'd found my calling . Since then I've flown on just about every continent." For the last twenty years Klaus has been traveling abroad, teaching and promoting the sport. He's run a tandem paragliding operation in South Africa; flown cross country in Australia and South America; and spent 12 straight summers in France, Germany, Switzerland and Austria. Fluent in German and French, Klaus is also active in creating paragliding tours and partnering with various schools around the world in order to offer international venues for pilots wishing to learn their skills in far off lands. |
Jonathan Legg Jonny is Oxygen’s man in Los Angeles. He holds advanced instructor and tandem instructor ratings and has cut his teeth flying the world’s top sites. If he's not getting students in the air you'll find him globetrotting as the host of the show The Road Less Traveled. “At Oxygen Paragliding L.A. I like to keep our customer list more exclusive so that we can be personally engaged. We don't knock out tandems by zipping people from A to B, but rather we give you the true big air paragliding experience, adjusted to your taste from zen to thrill-ride and from kicked back to actively involved. By the time your feet hit the LZ you'll be both informed and exhilarated. We don't run students through like cadets, but rather develop relationships and make them part of the team. You may get a better price somewhere else, but you will not get a better deal." |
