Paragliding: everything you need to know
Paragliding does not require a license or special training to fly. Thanks to tandem paragliding, it is possible to fly securely harnessed to an experienced pilot and experience the thrill of flight while sitting comfortably. Paragliding is the simplest means of free flight. It consists of a steerable wing connected to the pilot’s harness via a harness system.
A few meters of running is all it takes to take off, and the paraglider takes flight by inserting itself into the flow of the updrafts, which sustain it to a soft landing. Paragliding flights last an average of 20 minutes and are closely related to weather and wind conditions.
