Advance Paragliders

Putting our ideas into the air - that’s what we do. For more than 30 years, we at ADVANCE have kept the needs and wishes of our pilots at the forefront. 🪂 It all started with the fascination of flying. Even today, the interplay with the wind and the force of the elements inspires enthusiasm: because they derive great pleasure from flying, ADVANCE employees contribute their personal commitment. Most of the team members are pilots themselves and share the passion of the customers who put their faith in the products. We are an industry leading manufacturer of paragliders, harnesses and equipment based in Thun, Switzerland. With our brand ADVANCE we shaped the paragliding industry since 1988. We are known as a reliable partner and have systematically pursued our own directions and concepts in both development and production. ADVANCE stands for Swiss precision, technically mature and top quality products. Solid relationships with employees, dealers and suppliers underline the long-term orientation. Today, as ever, the joy of free flight is the driving force behind the company. Read our full brand story:
