You stand at the edge of the launch field as the Atlantic wind tugs at the wing, lifting it like a living thing. Below, the coastline carves dark cliffs into cobalt water; behind you, volcanic slopes rise and hold the warm air that will carry you. The team—led by the 2018 Spanish paragliding champion—walks through a calm, paced briefing before loading the air-conditioned van for the transfer to either Taucho (≈750 m) or Ifonche (≈1,000 m), chosen for the best flying conditions that morning.
