About Altura
From a team of pilots, to pilots
Altura is building a paragliding marketplace made by pilots, for pilots — new and second-hand — where every gear decision is honest, informed, and safety-first.
Why we exist
The paragliding gear market is fragmented, dealer-driven, and short on transparency. Prices are passed around by word of mouth, buyers can rarely compare, and most can't buy directly. We're changing that.
We started where we have a real, official footing — as an AirDesign dealer — and we grow brand by brand, category by category. Proven traffic and honest service earn the next partnership.
A team of paragliding pilots building Altura on real flying knowledge — the foundation of trustworthy advice and the reason safety always comes first.
Mission
Provide transparent, simple, worldwide access to the best paragliding equipment — new and second-hand — paired with trustworthy expert advice from a team of real pilots.
Vision
Become the global reference for buying, selling, and pricing paragliding equipment — the first stop for every pilot, from first wing to competition glider.
What makes us different
The world's only specialist paragliding marketplace combining new and second-hand gear, transparent multi-brand pricing, and advice from a team of experienced pilots — plus AI that identifies your skill level, recommends the right equipment, and analyses your flight tracks.

Expertise
Advice from a team of real pilots — we help you choose right, not just buy more.
Access
The sky has no borders. Neither should the gear that takes you there.
Community
Built by a team of pilots, for everyone who loves the sky.
