The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two different, market approved, cryoballoon devices for the treatment of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF). The main aims of the study are: * to compare the efficacy of two ablation devices (acute and 1 year success rates) * to compare the procedural characteristics (procedure duration, fluoroscopy duration, ablation time * to compare the complication rates Participants who have indication for cryoballoon ablation of AF will be randomized in 1:1 fashion to older fixed size cryoballoon and newer expandable cryoballoon. Standard of care cryoballoon procedure will be performed alongside with standard postprocedural follow-up. • to compare the complication rates Participants who have indication for cryoballoon ablation of AF will be randomized in 1:1 fashion to older fixed size cryoballoon and newer expandable cryoballoon.
