Had an amazing flight yesterday with Artyom above Azat Reservoir. He is a very understanding, caring and funny instructor. He also said we were lucky with the weather/season, because Mount Ararat looked really great that day, with the pink overtones all over the snowy summit. Just beautiful!
It was my first time paragliding and I can assure you it's not scary. Pure joy!
Note on clothing. It can be a bit chill in an early April morning, so a nice puff jacket or a windbreaker might help to stay warm while waiting for your turn. I had a couple of thin layers, one of which is a turtle neck, nice thick fleece jacket on top, beanie and jeans. For the flight itself I got special overall and gloves so all together it worked very well.
