Acro training - Winter 2022 - France

Hello everyone,
I would like to train acro this winter in France so I'm looking for a spot with a nice box, fast rotation (ski station lift or bus or else), with altitude above the box and work not far (season job or something).
My base plan was to go in Chamonix but apparently there is problems with the landing field owner and maybe it won't be possible to train there...
Do anyone know a good spot to train in the alps for the winter 2022 / 2023 ?
Thanks

Organya in September

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone has any tips if Organya is still working and could be a good destination for the next 2-3 weeks (mid-september), or if it´s already too late this year.

In the second case does anyone have any tips for locations that allow plenty of airtime and height over ground in September?

Happy landings...

Learning Acro in Japan

Hey guys, greetings from Kyoto! I am Tony, a French expatriate in Japan.

I started paragliding about 5 years ago, and paramotoring 1 year ago. Couple of years ago, I had a plan to head to Europe to learn Acro in Annecy. But sadly, I have not been able to get there because of the on-going COVID crisis.

There used to be a place in lake Biwa for SIV training, but that stopped about 3-4 years ago... I am wondering if anyone may have heard of Acro pilots living in Japan? I am keen to meet people who might see me through the first baby steps...
