PARAGLIDING is a relatively new form of hang gliding. The wing is an easily maneuverable glider launched by a short run down a hillside. Pulling handles, with lines attached to the glider controls the flight speed and direction. The wing is a lightweight glider, which is easily carried in a backpack.

PARAGLIDING is a very pure and seductive method of personal flight. Flight speeds are slow & controlled. Industry professionals agree that PARAGLIDERS are the easiest aircraft to become airborne in, yet require the greatest amount of judgment and skill to fly safely due to their being held inflated by the air that they fly thru.
