Flybubble Crew

The Flybubble Crew run the business and bring you the best freeflight gear. On the really epic days, you might find them chasing big dreams across the summer sky, but there's always someone on duty to serve you!

Stephen Simpson (Flybubble Crew)

Stephen Simpson is part of the Flybubble Crew and will help you get your gear set up right. He is an experienced pilot from North Wales, having flown in the PWC, as a member of the British Team at the Pre World championships in Bramburg, Austria (with Carlo) and as a UK Nationals Pilot.

Boris Tyszko (Flybubble Crew)

Welcome to Boris Tyszko, who is part of the Crew at Flybubble headquarters, responsible for behind the scenes systems, final product checks and sales support. "I fly for the views and the feeling of being removed from terra firma. I love paragliding because not only does it require physical skill but also knowledge to do well."

Carlo Borsattino (Flybubble Crew)

Carlo is Flybubble’s Managing Director (MD) and Chief Flying Instructor (CFI). He was licensed in the early 90s and instructed at many different schools before forming Flybubble. Over the years, Carlo has helped teach hundreds of people to paraglide, around the world. He has run many flying trips and has amassed thousands of hours of airtime in over 30 countries.

Nancy Elliott (Flybubble Sales Director)

Nancy Elliott (Flybubble Crew)

Nancy enrolled on a paragliding course in 2001 and has never looked back (or is it down?). She soon moved away from “The Big Smoke” to live in Sussex so she could fly as much as possible. Nancy has travelled far and wide with her wings, flying in the UK, Europe, South America, Africa and Asia.

Simon Steel (Flybubble Crew)

Simon Steel has years of experience flying the South Downs. He can usually be seen above Mount Caburn or Devil’s Dyke, circling high up. He is an Advanced Pilot (BHPA) and Dual Rated (tandem pilot) with well over 1000 hours of airtime. He loves cross country flying but he is cautious (and wise) so he likes light wind days, finding thermals and getting high in the flats.
