What is speedriding? It's a sport that combines skiing and paragliding. With the help of a light sail, the aim is to go down the slope by mixing moments of sliding with phases of flight.

Speed riding is a relatively new sport, which emerged in the early 2000s. It emerged from the combination of two well-established disciplines: skiing and paragliding. The idea was to combine the fast descent of snow-covered slopes with the ability to gain height using a small paraglider wing.
The beginnings of speed riding are often attributed to pioneers with a passion for extreme sports, such as François Bon and Valéry Montant in France. They experimented with this unique fusion of skiing and paragliding, paving the way for a new aerial adventure. Over the years, the sport has grown in popularity, attracting enthusiasts from all over the world.
Today, speed riding is practised in suitable mountain areas, offering thrill-seekers a unique way of hurtling down snow-covered slopes, the aim being to play with the mountain's relief interspersed with short phases of flight. The equipment has also evolved to meet the specific needs of this hybrid sport, with paragliders specially designed for speed riding.
