Richi mantilla
Richi was living in California, USA, in 1998 when he obtained his tandem license from USHPA, followed by his instructor license. At that time, while there were some paragliding schools, the tandem business was very new. So, he founded his company in California in 2001 and immediately started the school and tours business.
He returned to his home country in 2005 after the death of his father and founded Colombia Paragliding in his hometown of Bucaramanga.
In 2006, Richi started his international school, teaching in English and quickly becoming very popular with students from all over the world. Now, with more than 1,300 students and 95% being foreigners, we have become the #1 school in our country.
Currently, we’re located in Piedechinche, Valle del Cauca, boasting four take-off sites and an amazingly large landing zone. Richi is a certified instructor with immense experience, professionalism, and a great attitude, which makes all our clients seek him out. After their course, they consistently recommend him.
