Interesting article about hanggliding

Post by ron freeman »

This was very refreshing to read and also a very true account when flying hanggliders. There will always be a place for both sports so it makes sense to do both to maximise your time, effort & dosh.

Happy safe flying 8)

hanggliding back on track

Any paragliding club members out there who would like to have a go and experience 'pitch & roll' control with quite a bit more speed to play with.

Get in touch and we can have a one day club taster with a very good discount for club members only (50% !)

Both sports have there place in the right conditions but when the wind is topend for paragliding its perfect for hanggliding !

It only takes 5mins to put your wing onto the car, 15-20mins to rigg and you can safely fly in winds up to 25-30mph !

happy safe flying
