An elite team.
you are in good hands.
Tandem Team is a flight center and professional paragliding school located in the heart of the
Aragonese Pyrenees.
I started paragliding for the first time in Castejón de Sos in 1989.
I soon became passionate about this sport and started working as an instructor at the Pyrenees School in 1993. That same year I signed up for the first competitions. In 1994 I started to work as a professional tandem paraglider pilot. Then the competitions began to bear fruit, winning several national and international competitions in which highlights the silver medal in the world championships in Turkey (97), the 1st place in the championship of Spain (98), several National Leagues won, and becoming the first in the Spanish ranking.
From 2001 I left the competition to undertake a new stage as a professional paragliding area full time.
All this has made me one of the most experienced Spanish pilots, with more than 8000 tandem flights and 6000 flight hours in single-seater.
Director of the TandemTeam Flight Center to date.

NICOLÁS CORDERO MARTIN
From the steppe of Zamora, my mountain dreams brought me to the Pyrenees when I was still a 19 year old boy, back in ’99. Since then I have been living here.
Almost immediately I started flying, uninterruptedly until today. What I like most about flying is the feeling of responsibility. And that the actions and decisions I make can always make me go a little further. In this way I have crossed the skies of many mountain ranges around the world: Alps, Dolomiti, Thian Shan, Pamir, Andes, Atlas or Himalaya…
I have always combined flying with other hobbies and professions. Being also a mountain guide, canyoning and ski instructor.
My teaching work in all these areas, from such a young age, has forged a personality with a great spirit to transmit, and I believe that this is one of my virtues.
