Hi Stephan, Thank you for the feedback. For some reason I only now saw your review, apologies. I have gone back in our flight documentation but couldn't find any incident logged. With our strict safety regulations we do record any incident that causes damage to equipment or personal injury. Reading your feedback, it sounds you had an aborted take off. The take off phase is the most critical part of the flight and pilot and passenger need to work together in order to get safely off the hill. Pilots assess their passengers by doing a take off practise run. If necessary they will ask other pilots to assist. The pilot is also carefully assessing conditions on take off. The most common reasons for aborted take offs are either the wind has switched during take off phase or passengers didn't complete the take off run by stopping to run or sitting down too early. Hope you had a great start into 2022. Regards, Gitti @ Coronet Peak Tandems

Nach Start abgestürzt
Gleich nach Absprung bin ich mit meinem Tandempartner abgestürzt, zum Glück keine schweren Verletzungen, aber mehrere Tage Rückenschmerzen, Schürfwunden un und blaue Flecken. Zum Glück auch nicht in den Felsen gelandet. Zweiten doof als Entschädigung und Bilder umsonst bekommen. Keinesfalls zu empfehlen.
