FlySafe Canopy School / Bruno geada

The FlySafe Canopy School was founded in 2013 by Bruno Geada at Skydive Algarve, Portugal. At the time he wanted to create a canopy school to meet the needs of the large number of new skydivers attending the dropzone. The canopy school grew, and now receives over 200 students a year.

In 2015 Icarus Canopies NZ founded “The Canopy School” and invited Bruno to join their team of experienced canopy pilots. Flysafe started to give courses following “The Canopy School” syllabus, applying the knowledge and experience gained over the years.

The school is focused on improving the skills of beginners to advanced pilots, offering canopy courses, one-on-one and group canopy coaching and flock coaching, giving all the support and instruction to canopy pilots of all experience levels. We also help you with the qualifications to get your BPA, USPA and FPPQ Canopy Licenses.

You can fly your canopy better!

Believe in it!

Be the pilot!
