Cloud Surfer Ireland

Permission to get excited

I'm Phil Barron, the founder and Chief Flying Instructor (CFI) at Cloud Surfer Ireland. With over 20 years of experience in free flying, paramotoring, and tandem paragliding, I've dedicated my life to sharing the joy of flight with others. As a senior coach with the Northern Ireland Paragliding Club (NIPC), I take pride in mentoring pilots beyond the Club Pilot (CP) level, helping them build confidence and advance their skills in real-world conditions.

My approach is hands-on and supportive, focusing on personalized coaching that addresses each pilot's unique needs. Whether you're looking to refine your techniques, explore cross-country flying, or simply gain more confidence in the air, I'm here to guide you every step of the way.

At Cloud Surfer Ireland, we believe that learning doesn't stop at certification. Our goal is to foster a community of skilled, confident pilots who are passionate about flying and committed to continuous improvement.

Feel free to reach out if you're interested in taking your paragliding skills to the next level!
