Paragliding
From a professional point of view, paragliding is an entertaining and competitive sporting adventure flight of flying paragliders: a lightweight, free-flying foot-launched glider aircraft, with no rigid primary structure. The pilot sits in a harness suspended below a fabric wing.
In plain language, paragliding gives an indescribable feeling of free flight, without barriers in the form of a cockpit, portholes or glass. Paragliding is the simplest and most democratic, but still real aviation.
Takeoff
Preparation for the flight takes 5 minutes – they put the passenger on and adjust the suspension system, put on the helmet. Then the passenger is hooked to the pilot with a paraglider. After that, you will receive an introductory briefing, where you will learn about simple rules for takeoff and landing.
The main task of the passenger is to stay on his feet during the start, not to sit in the suspension system until he takes off the ground, because it will be difficult for the pilot to take off while carrying your weight. In order to take off, it is enough to run a little at the start or even take a few steps - it all depends on the strength of the wind. The paraglider gently lifts off the ground and rises up to meet the sky.
