Alexey Galda: Data, Innovation, and the Pursuit of Human Flight Performance

For Alexey Galda, performance flying is more than speed, distance, or time, it’s a quest to understand what’s truly possible.

In this episode of Leading Edge, Alexey shares how physics, data, and relentless experimentation have shaped his journey from paraglider pilot to world-class wingsuit competitor and innovator. We explore performance training, wingtip development, in-flight technology, and why breaking complex problems into simple, measurable parts is the key to long-term progress.
