Adrenaline and Turbulence is much more than just a paragliding acro film. Shot in some of the best flying sites in the world this is action film, an educational tool, a road movie and a story of personal triumph.

Heading to Spain and the secret training site of the Rodriguez brothers, the pair soon learn the necessary skills to climb to the highest step of the acro ladder. Candid, in depth, informative, inspiring and beautifully produced by Andras Kollman, Adrenaline and Turbulence is a stunning tribute to where determination and self-belief can take you.

“It explains where the sport has come from, talks to the people who developed it, touches on acro’s slow, dangerous, two decades of development, and presents it as an accessible standalone discipline. All while showcasing some stunning flying in beautiful places…”
