Malin Lobb Launches Pure Paragliding and ActiveAir Platform

British SIV instructor and renowned paragliding coach Malin Lobb is launching two new projects — Pure Paragliding and ActiveAir — after confirming his departure from Flyeo at the end of the 2026 season.

After a decade with Flyeo, where he was co-owner and helped build the Annecy-based school into one of the world’s most respected SIV and advanced pilot training operations, Malin is now forging his own path.

His new venture, Pure Paragliding, will continue his focus on SIV and pilot development — but with a fresh approach. “This will include significantly expanded pre-course training, greater use of technology and the option of accommodation alongside courses,” Malin said.

Much of the new training material was filmed during a month-long training trip to Turkey, and will be delivered through ActiveAir — a new online learning platform Malin is building with acro pilot and former Apple engineer Kuba Mazur.

“ActiveAir is due to go live on 4 September 2026. It will combine a free monthly podcast with structured online courses covering SIV and wing control, cross-country flying and broader pilot development,” Malin said.

Whether you are working on SIV skills or planning your next cross-country flight, having the right Harness Simulator for ground practice can make a huge difference to your progress.

Malin is a regular contributor to Cross Country magazine, writing about SIV techniques and advanced glider control skills.
