Logo contest: XSKY PARAGLIDING

What we do:

We offer tandem paragliding flights and courses for beginner solo pilots.

People of all ages (16 years and up) with an adventurous heart.

We are open to any color combination. Black & Red are often associated with exiting sports. However, we would definitely appreciated other color combinations because B&R can sometimes be quite aggressive, and also because it’s a combination already well used in the industry and we would like to stand out.

Paragliding is considered an extreme sport. With the tandem paragliding flights we allow people a taste of this exciting sport. We offer an adrenaline rush but with an emphasis on safety. The logo should express some excitement but should not relate too much to extreme sports either because it might frighten potential customers. The number one idea that the logo should express is the exhilarating feeling of absolute freedom!

I've added a drawing from a t-shirt we bought in Asia. It captures the essence of paragliding to a tee. (see attachment) XC paragliding is a commonly used expression in the industry and stands for cross-country paragliding. Xsky paragliding follows similar lines... cross-sky paragliding, we cross the sky. We think that it will be more easily understood if the” X” is a capital letter and “sky” small letters. Or differ from each other in some way? We do NOT favor a romantic bird-soaring-in-the-sky-above-the-mountains-with-a-sunset-in-the-background type of feeling.

The logo shouldn’t be too busy, too involved. (see attachment) We very much like the “Paragliding in Cape Town” design! (see attachment)
