Now I KNOW why they call it “hang” gliding
I resisted to make that joke but here you go
Ps: I stopped paragliding for for flying power/glidera, as they say on these you gain experience by bending plastic/metal (this did not work well with my foot in the trees with a paraglider),
Nonethless, you can’t beat the feel of a strong thermal in a paraglider/hangglider, it is beyond all source of excitement you can think of !
