Motor paraglider

h-takarajima

We recommend starting early in the morning as your chances of catching a flight are more than twice as good as those in the afternoon.

h-takarajima

It's an exhilarating experience that you can't get with other rides. Since you ride tandem with a guide, you can enjoy it with peace of mind.

h-takarajima

Takeoff and landing occur from flat ground that was formerly a field! Sometimes you rise higher than the clouds.

    • Yes, become a bird!

      When you fly, it's like a different world. It felt so good! After gaining altitude, we turned off the engine and caught the wind, and it felt like we became birds. We were worried about our age, but there were no problems and we were able to take videos and photos. The guide adjusted the time to suit our physical strength and condition, so we could leave it to him without worry. Thank you so much for the priceless 15 minutes♪ When taking photos, I recommend including your feet in the photo so that it doesn't just end up being a "pretty view" (^。^) (This review has been machine translated)
    • It was great!

      I participated with my friends! It was fun! I would be happy to participate again someday! (This review has been machine translated)
    • It was awesome

      I was a bit nervous at first because I went alone, but the guide was very kind and it was totally fine even though I was alone! I was blessed with good weather and was able to go above the sea of ​​clouds, which was a really wonderful experience. They explained a lot of things during the flight, which was great! I was a little scared of the part that flew like a rollercoaster, but it was a lot of fun!! I'm really glad I went! Thank you very much! (This review has been machine translated)

      • I managed to fly on the third try!

        After overcoming two cancellations due to strong winds, we managed to fly safely on our third attempt, even though we were desperate! At first, I wondered if it would be okay to fly on such a short runway, but it felt like I was catching the wind when I took off, and there were no problems at all! (This review has been machine translated)
      • It was great

        My son and I participated on August 9th from 8am. It had been raining since the day before so we were worried, but we were thrilled to be able to fly. The view from 400m and 300m in the sky is like another world. We were able to have a great experience and we are grateful for that. (This review has been machine translated)
      • I became a bird

        Two sisters were able to fly on their second try. We tried motor paragliding in Furano. We were nervous during the flight, but our guide's fun conversation helped us ease our tension. We felt like birds feeling the wind as we melted into the blue sky. It was a wonderful experience, even better than we had imagined. (This review has been machine translated)
      • Third time's a charm

        The trip was cancelled twice due to bad weather. This is an activity that involves nature, so it made us trust each other. And finally we were able to fly! My son was so happy. In the sky, we turned off the engine and swayed back and forth... It's a bit pricey, but I recommend it for the views you'll never see! (This review has been machine translated)
      • The fourth time

        Sisters Unfortunately, it has been cancelled. I made a reservation several years ago, and when I arrived and tried to ride again, it was cancelled... It's hard to get on. This time, I was informed of the cancellation in the morning, which was disappointing. The staff at the shop were very helpful. I'd like to go again if I have the chance. (This review has been machine translated)
      • Good decision!

        I had planned to join my boyfriend and I, but unfortunately, we were informed the day before that the trip had to be cancelled due to a strong wind warning. This coincided with the Shiretoko sightseeing boat accident, so I thought it was a calm decision. It was unfortunate this time, but I would like to try again someday. (This review has been machine translated)
      • This is the third time.

        This was actually my third time. It's amazing to be able to look down on Hokkaido's magnificent scenery from the sky, and if it were closer I'd like to do it a few times a year. It's a recommended activity, but it's heavily dependent on the weather, so I recommend making a reservation with about half a day to spare. (This review has been machine translated)
      • It was great

        My girlfriend and I went on this trip at the end of April. Our scheduled morning flight was cancelled due to wind direction, but we made a special change to the time as there were no reservations for the afternoon, and we were able to go ahead and experience it without any problems! The time we spent high in the sky with the engines shut off and experiencing the updrafts was a valuable experience that allowed us to really feel the power of nature. Our guide was very kind and full of humour, so we were able to participate with peace of mind. We'd definitely like to participate again! (This review has been machine translated)
      • A dream come true!

        I applied for the Douminwari campaign to fulfill my long-held dream of "flying in the sky" during a family camping trip. I'm a sunny guy, so I wasn't worried about the weather, but the first flight in the morning (8am) was perfect conditions with clear skies and a light breeze. After checking in, I watched a video with easy-to-understand explanations. I didn't have any questions, and the video was so exciting that I felt excited (lol). They also lent me a selfie stick, so I could fly with just my cash and smartphone. I put on my harness and helmet and waited at the airfield. I waited for the wind to change slightly, and took off when the wind started to blow against me! I was so impressed when my feet lifted off the ground!! I was able to take plenty of videos and photos during the flight, but try not to focus too much on the screen of your smartphone! It's a great opportunity to enjoy the view from the sky with your own eyes♪ You only live once, so it's worth flying in the sky at least once. (This review has been machine translated)
      • It was a dream

        I participated with my girlfriend using the Hokkaido resident discount! I've always wanted to try paragliding, and when I asked directly if there was a Hokkaido resident discount, they kindly explained it to me and told me how to book it! I was nervous about the weather, but we were able to fly safely and it was fun! I'd like to try it again in the winter! Thank you! It was a great memory! (This review has been machine translated)
      • It was my first experience and I enjoyed it.

        I participated on a solo trip from Osaka. I made a reservation by phone the day before and I'm grateful for the kind and polite service from the receptionist. The weather was good on the day and I arrived earlier than my reservation time, but there was an empty seat so I was able to get on right away. I'm afraid of heights, but even when I rose to nearly 400m I was overwhelmed by the magnificent view of Furano and didn't feel scared. That's how good the instructor Sato's skills were. He explained a lot of things to me and the weather was great, so it was perfect. Thank you very much. (This review has been machine translated)
      • I love Hokkaido

        I experienced it by myself! I live in Hokkaido, but the view from a height of over 400 meters was amazing and I was moved!!! I love thrill rides, so the roller coaster was a lot of fun! I'd love to come again if I have the opportunity! (This review has been machine translated)
      • Enjoy the Furano sky

        On July 6th, three of us (father and two daughters) tried out motor paragliding. It was my energetic second daughter who suggested we participate, but my eldest daughter was the first to raise her hand and take off, perhaps because she wanted it to be over quickly. She came back with a big smile on her face. She also said she would do the spiral by herself. Both of them were very excited about their first experience, and seemed very satisfied. As for me? I used to do hang gliding when I was a student, so it was my first flight in 35 years, but of course I was very satisfied. (I would have liked to fly higher if possible.)

      • I flew on a motorized paraglider in Furano!!

        On July 9th, 2018, my family (wife, daughter, and even my 10-year-old granddaughter!) and I flew in the Furano sky on a motor paraglider! It was the first time for all of us! The instructors were kind and gentle in teaching us. It felt so good! In the huge Hokkaido sky! It felt so good! I became a bird! It was a wonderful and amazing experience! I want to fly in the Hokkaido sky again! Thank you so much! Motor paragliding is the best! (This review has been machine translated)
      • It was great.

        I participated with five friends. The guides were all kind and hardworking, and we had a lot of fun. It was very exhilarating when we were able to fly. (This review has been machine translated)
      • The instructor is funny

        I participated with my husband. The location was surrounded by fields and other tranquil scenery, so we found it without any trouble. The person with the previous reservation had a delayed flight due to winds, so there was a bit of a wait, but while we were watching the instruction DVD, it was quickly our turn. Thanks to the instructor, we were able to fly happily. He listened to our request not to do spirals, so we enjoyed ourselves until the very end without any scary experiences. Thank you very much. (This review has been machine translated)
      • I became a bird!

        We were blessed with great weather and were able to fly in the best possible conditions! Both my girlfriend and I were very satisfied. The view from 400-500m above the ground is amazing! Please try it! There are also shops nearby where you can eat delicious sweets! (This review has been machine translated)
      • Paragliding is the best

        I did some research on my first trip to Furano, found this site and made a reservation. I felt at ease with the quick response to emails. It was my first time paragliding. Mr. Sato, who was in charge, was very cheerful, and seemed to know a lot about cameras, and the fact that he has taken many celebrities on his flights also made me feel at ease. The flight time for paragliding is about 15 minutes, but there are many things to do beforehand, such as explanations and consent forms, so it may be difficult if you don't have much time. The wind took the most time. You can't fly without a headwind. This took a long time. It can't be helped, as you are dealing with nature. I started running towards the specified goal, and failed the first time because I ran too hard. The second time I was able to fly safely, and I felt like a bird. You fly around the sky of Furano and take pictures along the way. You can also ride a roller coaster where you turn your body horizontally and spin around. People who are sensitive to motion sickness may get motion sickness. It was a very fun and valuable experience. I would like to do this in many places. (This review has been machine translated)
      • It was a magnificent flight over the silvery white scenery (*^_^*)

        My husband and I participated from Kobe. This was our second flight since the summer. We had been looking forward to this flight for half a year, as we really wanted to enjoy a flight over the silvery white sea. Thanks to Mr. Sato who changed the date to the next day, we were blessed with the best weather, and were able to fly over the gorgeous winter scenery of Furano. It was truly moving. My wife was hesitant at first because of the cold, but she was very happy to be able to fly. Furano really is the best location. Thank you so much. I'd love to try snowkiting♪ Thank you for your continued support (*^_^*) If you'd like, please watch the video! http://youtu.be/JdnRhWqtReQ (This review has been machine translated)
      • Higher than Tokyo Tower!

        Thank you for your help in late September 2014. It was my first time trying paragliding! I slowly climbed higher into the sky, and before I knew it, I was 430m... I was amazed that I was able to reach a height that I would normally have to use an elevator to reach. I felt the moment my feet left the ground, the wind and cold air in the sky, and above all, I was able to experience the vastness of the Hokkaido sky with my very own eyes. It was a very memorable trip. After returning to Tokyo, I looked at the towering Tokyo Tower and realized that I had gone higher than that height... @^^@ Thank you for your help. Thank you very much.

      • Wife happy, husband sad

        During my late summer vacation with my wife in early September, I tried motor paragliding. We rented a car from New Chitose Airport and went to Noboribetsu → Muroran → Lake Toya → Niseko (2 nights) → Yoichi/Otaru → Sapporo (1 night) → Furano (2 nights), and made the first reservation in the morning in Furano, the last destination of our trip. When I woke up in the morning, the sky was clear and the breeze was gentle, so I was happy that it would be the perfect weather for paragliding, and headed to "Sorachi". After some hesitation, I arrived and found the president and his foreign assistant in the office in the middle of a rice field, preparing for the flight. After a brief explanation of the flight on a computer screen, we headed to the airport. There were several airports depending on the wind direction (I may have been mistaken), so we went to the airport about 5 minutes by car. There was a windsock, and the president wearing sunglasses was constantly checking the wind direction. It seemed that it was not the best weather for flying. After a while, he said, "Let's have your wife do it," and my wife started preparing for the flight. While preparing, I kept checking the wind direction. It was quite windy, so as an amateur, I couldn't figure out what was causing the problem. Based on my experience flying a kite as a child, I thought that this wind should be enough to lift the kite, but it seemed that the wind was not blowing from one direction, and that it was swirling, which was bothering me. After my wife finished preparing, it was time to fly. After trying a few times, the president and his wife took off. I was given a walkie-talkie so I could communicate with my wife in the sky. As the plane got further and higher, I asked my wife many times how high we were, and she said in a bouncy voice, "You're too noisy, so be quiet." Even though she was anxious before taking off... it seemed to have risen to about 500 meters. It seemed that the engine was turned off in the sky and they flew using only the updrafts, which was just amazing. After about 25 minutes of flying, we returned. It was my turn next. Ready to go, I waited for instructions from the president. But there was no sign of flying. I watched the clouds moving in the sky and the kites flying, and he said, "Today's impossible." "You can't fly." When my wife and I were in the sky, the president said that today might not be possible, and the winds in the sky were unstable. The two young women who had made the reservation after us were there, but he said they couldn't fly. If he'd pushed himself, he probably could have flown, but I really admired the president's safety-first attitude, and although it was disappointing, I felt refreshed as I accepted the decision to give up on the flight. If there's another opportunity, I'd like to try again. I'll try to lose some weight by then, Mr. President! (This review has been machine translated)
      • A first experience!

        It was awesome! My family took me and I was a bit scared at first, but from the moment I floated up to the moment I rose up, I felt amazing and excited. I'm glad I had this experience. I'd like to come again. (This review has been machine translated)
      • A valuable flight experience

        To make a summer memory, I booked a 9am flight on August 21st. I was worried about whether we would be able to fly because of the rain the day before, but the day itself was sunny and safe! I assumed that it was thanks to my usual good behavior, so we set off. The guide had contacted me in advance so I was able to find the meeting place right away. After a brief lecture and getting equipped, I was ready for the flight! The rest of the time, I just followed the guide's instructions and became an airman! Even though I get motion sickness easily and am afraid of heights, it didn't bother me at all! It was a very valuable experience. It was fun. Thank you so much to the guide for all your help.

      • It flew!

        On the day, I was disappointed to hear that the first flight of the morning had been cancelled, but the pilot patiently observed the air currents to try and get us to fly! What a kindness! Needless to say, it was amazing to be up in the sky! It's an experience you should definitely try ♪ Thank you to the kind staff m(__)m (This review has been machine translated)
      • Present for my grandson

        I took my granddaughter, a 2nd year middle school student, who came from Osaka with her two children for summer vacation, as a birthday present to experience flying. The flight on 8/17 was cancelled in the morning, but the flight was a success at 9am on 8/18. My granddaughter was delighted with the best present she will never forget.

      • First flight (*^_^*)

        My husband and I participated from Kobe. Flying over my favorite Furano was a special experience for me (*^_^*) We were worried about the weather on the day, but we were very lucky that we were able to fly without giving up after receiving numerous calls. The view of Furano floating in the sky was amazing. My wife was a little scared at first, but she was very happy (*^_^*) Thank you so much. Next time, we'll fly over the world of silver ♪ Thank you again (●^o^●) If you like, please watch the video! http://youtu.be/vvr_hdfWers?list=UUuW8HdkXr9_V8P-2lhUPJsw (This review has been machine translated)
      • Last Flight

        On Monday, July 14th, 2014, on my way to the hotel from the riding club in Furano, I was indirectly informed that the 14th was a holiday, but I saw an MP Glider flying overhead. I quickly turned my bike around and headed to the parking lot of "MPG Sorachi". The pilot who had just come out of the car agreed to the flight when I explained the situation to him. What's more, he said that the current wind was perfect for flying. After the couple who had been waiting for me finished their flight, it was my last flight of the day. I put on my harness, radio and helmet... I waited for a good wind before taking off!! Within four steps, I was floating up, and with a good headwind, I was rising steadily, with a panoramic view of Furano and Biei above, middle and middle. Even though it was evening, there was no haze and visibility was excellent. The pilot was the last one with great luck, so he gave me a complimentary gift and we circled the Furano Basin, reaching a maximum altitude of 400m... it was the best, the best and the best one after another. Needless to say, I took videos of the scenery around me and at my feet on my digital camera from start to finish. At an altitude of 400m, I turned off the engine and started gliding... the only sound I could hear was the sound of cutting through the wind... Yes!! It felt like I had become a bird. I'm grateful to the pilot for extending my flight time. It was a wonderful experience, and I'd like to come back here and fly again, even if it meant taking a detour just for this. I'm enjoying it again on the big screen at home with the VTR (^ ^)/ (This review has been machine translated)
      • My husband and I participated on Saturday, July 13th.

        My husband and I participated on Saturday, July 13th. If anyone is hesitating after reading this experience, I can say with 100% confidence that you should "do it." At first, I was a little nervous, but before the flight, the instructor kindly taught me how to take off and how to position myself when landing, so the moment I took off, all my worries disappeared and I experienced a moment that felt like I transcended everything. There was a world like this in the sky! I felt like I was a bird, or like the wind. I've done horseback riding and scuba diving before, but this is a whole different level. Above all, the instructor, Mr. Sato, and the other staff were all fun people and we created the best memories. Thank you so much. My husband and I will definitely go again!

      • It's so fun you'll forget the 3-hour wait

        I rode it in the evening of July 15th. I've been on a lot of things that fly in the sky, such as hot air balloons and motor gliders, but with a motor paraglider, your body is exposed and you can feel the wind, so it feels similar to a motorcycle. I recommend this because you can enjoy the majestic rural scenery of Furano and the Tokachi mountain range from the sky. However... it is a ride that is greatly affected by the weather and wind. I made a reservation at 1pm, but I was waiting for the wind and was actually able to ride around 4:30pm. I only had to go home, so I only ended up getting home late, but If you have a tight schedule, your travel plans may be disrupted. It's difficult to predict the wind conditions even a few minutes ahead, so make a schedule with plenty of time. I hope you all enjoy flying in the Furano sky.

      • Above the Clouds

        I'm late in posting this, but I had the chance to try it out first thing in the morning on June 21st. Although there was a little drizzle that day, I was overwhelmed with emotion to be able to take a walk in the sky without any problems! And best of all, I was above the clouds on the back course! It was amazing!! When I visit Furano again, I'd like to fly above the clouds on a clearer day than this time. Thank you so much for the wonderful experience. (This review has been machine translated)
      • Last year...

        My daughter, who went to university in Tokyo from Sapporo, returned home with her friends to sightsee in Hokkaido. They arrived in Biei first thing in the morning on a reserved paragliding flight, but when they arrived, the organizers told them that they could not be accommodated that day due to equipment failure. They had traveled three hours all the way from Sapporo, so I thought it was impossible. (This review has been machine translated)
      • I flew in today!

        Thank you so much for giving me such a valuable experience today! Due to heavy rain, the plan was cancelled at one point and I had almost given up, but you somehow found a chance and I was able to fly in the sky before heading home! This is addictive. If I have time, I'd like to participate again soon! Next time, definitely... on the usual course!! (lol) (This review has been machine translated)
      • I flew in

        9/21 We flew on a motorized paraglider (*゚▽゚*) It was my first time experiencing paragliding. At first, I was told that I might not be able to fly depending on the wind because of my weight, so I thought that if I couldn't fly, I would just have to be the cameraman and driver.But the wind on the day was good, so I flew. It was the first time in my life that I flew up to that height with my body exposed. But it wasn't scary at all, and it felt great (^O^) And in the second half, we stopped the engine and did a steep descent while rotating!It was a real screamer lol I'm glad that all five of us were able to fly. It was a lot of fun.Thank you very much. Next time, I'll go after I've lost more weight (lol) I'd like to experience an early morning sea of ​​clouds flight. (This review has been machine translated)
      • The best!

        It was a spectacular sight. I was lost in a daze for a while. The photos are amazing, but the actual scenery is completely different. I'm really glad I got to fly~♪ I'd like to fly again when I come to Furano. Please give it a try everyone (・∀・) (This review has been machine translated)
      • ☆Everyone, you should definitely try this☆

        Anyway! It was the best! ☆⌒ヾ(*゚∀゚)ノHya-ho-u♪. My husband said something a little pathetic like, "If we flew for another five minutes, I might get drunk and throw up..." but I wanted to stay up in the sky forever. I think air travel lasts about 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the air currents. We started our try at 1 o'clock. Luckily, there was a good wind and both my husband and I were able to fly perfectly in one try. The fields looked exactly like patchwork. We could even see the whirlpools. We experienced the sensation of rising again in the updrafts. Our guide, Mr. Sato, was a calm and composed dandy, but in the sky, he would cheer us on with "Yeehaw!", which helped ease our fears and tension. The Furano gourmet food he introduced us to was also great. Farm Tomita's melon shake, Campana Rokkatei's grape soft serve, Furanoya's soup curry (This review has been machine translated)
      • It was a great flight at dusk.

        On August 12th, I was on the waiting list for a cancellation, but after receiving numerous calls, I was able to go there just to have a look. The wind was strong that day, and it didn't look like we'd be able to fly, but as we were relaxing and enjoying the rural scenery, the wind calmed down at dusk, and we were able to have our long-awaited "flight experience"! The sunset-tinted scenery seen from the sky was so beautiful I can't put it into words♪ My daughter (14 years old), who took a surprise flight in the sky, was also very impressed. The instructor, Mr. Sato, told me, "You won because you persevered!" Next time, I'd like to go above the clouds♪! (This review has been machine translated)
      • There's no better flying experience!

        The weather was unstable at the time, but we were lucky to have a wonderful flight at a calm moment. We postponed the flight once, but I'm glad we got a call in the middle of it and returned. We were able to rise to a fairly high altitude just above the New Furano Prince Hotel, and the blue sky was visible through the gaps in the high clouds, and the low sea of ​​clouds at our feet, and looking to the side, we could see the mountain ranges surrounding Furano in the distance. From the sky, we turned off the engine and glided back like a black kite while listening to the pleasant sound of the wind. Our guide, Mr. Sato, explained things very carefully, so we could enjoy the flight with peace of mind. My daughter, who had said beforehand, "I wonder if it's scary," was also at ease. The recommended restaurants were delicious, and it was a wonderful trip. Thank you very much. Next time, I would like to fly over Furano in winter. If you have time, please try flying! You will definitely be impressed. (This review has been machine translated)
      • It's the best!

        It was my first attempt in good weather. When we took off, I almost fell on my bottom while walking backwards and sideways, but we managed to take off in one go, and it was amazing. We took pictures of the Sorachi River (?) in Furano, the beautiful fields (including my funny face), and my husband took pictures of small dots with a video camera from below. Suddenly the motor stopped, and we floated around with a "feel the wind" message, communicating with the people below, and it was like we had become birds. My sister, who had said she would only watch at first, joined us, and the four of us were very satisfied with this rare and fun experience, so thank you very much. (My sister was the oldest woman (?)

      • Awesome!!

        It was awesome!! I flew on December 2nd last year!! The moment of takeoff and landing was an indescribable feeling, the beauty of the Furano cityscape and the surrounding mountains spread out beneath my feet, it was awesome!! I participated alone and had a lot of worries about winter in Hokkaido for the first time in a while, but thank you to everyone at MPG Sorachi and All Hokkaido for giving me advice in advance. I was able to experience and travel with peace of mind♪ The omelette curry that you took me to for lunch was also delicious (I forgot the name of the restaurant...) I sometimes look at the photos I took from the sky to cheer me up I'd like to fly again in spring and summer. Thank you again~ (This review has been machine translated)
      • Motor paragliding is fun.

        I took my high school daughter to try motor paragliding. It was the first thing in the morning, but it was so hot! Whew! We waited for a breeze and took off, and it was cool in the air, and best of all, the view from up in the sky was amazing. My daughter was also impressed with how amazing it was, she seems to be hooked. Thank you Sato-san for a fun time. (This review has been machine translated)
      • A dream come true

        I was very happy that my dream of flying in the sky came true. Thank you very much!! I'm also grateful that you visited the filming locations in the North Country. By the way, what's the name of the shop where we had ice cream? The ice cream was delicious. And the melon was cheap. (This review has been machine translated)
      • It was awesome!!

        I came to Furano with my middle school daughter to try out motor paragliding, something I've always wanted to do. We were on standby from around 8:30 in the morning, but the wind wasn't blowing that morning, so we had to "wait for the wind". During that time, our instructor, Mr. Sato, taught us a lot about the wind, clouds, and air currents, so it was a lot of fun. In the afternoon, a good wind blew, so we didn't have to take off very quickly, and we just rose up and were in the sky in no time! It was like forgetting about everyday life, like a different world! At one point, they stopped the engine and let us fly just by the wind, which was really wonderful. Before we got off, they spun us around and gave us a taste of the "soft ice cream trick". This was super, super, thrilling, more than a roller coaster!! !! We enjoyed the refreshing early summer in Furano. Both my daughter and mom were very satisfied!! I want to go again (*^_^*) Thank you, Sato-san~ \(^O^)/ (This review has been machine translated)
      • I was able to go above the clouds!

        I've always wanted to fly in the sky, so I was very happy that my wish came true! I was worried because it had rained the day before, but on the day I was able to fly quickly and rise high up into the clouds. Birds were flying far below my feet and I felt like I was a bird while flying, which was amazing. I was well dressed for the cold, so it was easy to go to high places, even at this time of year. Next time I'd definitely like to fly in the summer or autumn sky. Thank you very much. (This review has been machine translated)
      • The aerial walk was so much fun and a memorable experience!

        This was my first time trying motor paragliding. I can't forget the exhilarating feeling of flying freely through the sky! I was taking pictures with my own digital camera, so I occasionally look at the mysterious scenery above the clouds and remember my trip to Hokkaido♪♪ Mr. Sato taught me a lot of things, so I was able to fly with great peace of mind. The feeling of flying directly through the clouds and rising up. The coldness of the clouds (fog) that I could touch directly. A pleasant breeze!! It was a truly dreamlike and fun time to be able to walk in the air♪ You can experience the best feeling that you can't usually experience!! I would definitely like to fly again if I have the opportunity. On the day I tried, there was unfortunately heavy rain on and off, and the weather was a bit iffy with no wind. Thanks to a moment of wind and Mr. Sato's technique, I was able to take off safely. I was unable to dash at full speed, so I apologize for the trouble and time. Thank you very much!!! I hope everyone taking on the challenge can safely reach the clouds...♪ May we be blessed with good weather and good winds. Mr. Sato, please stay healthy and do your best!

      • Revenge was a great success!

        I couldn't find a good wind on my evening flight, so I tried again the next morning! I didn't have to wait for the wind, and my revenge was a great success, so I was very happy. I was able to feel the best scenery and wind from the sky of Furano. I didn't feel any anxiety at all with the veteran Kenji's piloting, and it was a great memory. I would definitely like to fly again when I go to Furano. (This review has been machine translated)
      • We flew as a family of four!

        It had rained for several days until the day before, but it was sunny on this day! We had to wait a little while for a good wind, but each of our family of four had a great time. Instructor Kenji is a veteran, so we were able to trust him with confidence, and we had more fun in the air than we expected. Highly recommended! (This review has been machine translated)
      • We went above the clouds!

        It was the best!!! I don't usually like roller coasters and I get motion sickness, so to be honest I was a bit worried at first, but I didn't feel sick and I was able to enjoy the amazing scenery! The view of Furano from the sky was amazing! And the strange feeling of floating in the sky was something I'd never felt before, and it really moved me★ I was lucky enough to go above the clouds and see rainbows all around me, and it was a great memory of my trip to Hokkaido☆Thank you♪ (This review has been machine translated)
      • The open sky of Furano was amazing!

        I thought it would be scary like a roller coaster, but it wasn't scary at all! Feeling exhilarated as you ride with the wind, looking at the land and mountains of Furano, there's no way you wouldn't want to ride it again! It was so amazing☆ It would be a shame to hesitate because it seems scary. The man on the ride was kind and fun, and made sure to get you excited, so just let yourself go with the great outdoors and have a wonderful experience♪ (This review has been machine translated)
