Flying, Showmanship and Good Vibes: FIA El Yelmo 2025

The 25th edition of FIA El Yelmo, Spain’s most important free flight festival, welcomed us with a hot weekend full of flying, spectacle, and reunions with air-loving friends. On Friday evening, our pilots César Arévalo, Tyr Goldsmith, and Blaise Brogan took part in a breathtaking show over the stunning medieval castle of Segura de la Sierra at sunset, with the El Yelmo massif behind us – truly unforgettable. That night, we celebrated with our local distributors, Paralaire and Kasana, in a festive and friendly atmosphere.

Saturday kicked off with a talk by Tyr about the development of our latest-generation wings and BGD’s high-performance project, including exclusive footage of his work as a BGD test pilot. The show went on with César throwing down some epic infinities over the festival, Blaise spinning his wing in helicopters, and unforgettable flights from El Yelmo – with a glimpse of a new top-secret prototype wing in development.

A spectacular weekend filled with great vibes and incredible flying for the BGD team. Hasta la próxima, FIA El Yelmo!
