Preparing for the Flight

Once you have your paraglider and all of the necessary gear, it’s time to start preparing for your flight․ The first step is to find a suitable launch site․ This should be a large, open area with no obstacles, such as trees or power lines․

Once you have found a launch site, you need to check the weather conditions․ Paragliding is a weather-dependent sport, so it’s important to make sure that the conditions are safe for flying․ You should look for a day with light winds and no precipitation․

Once you have checked the weather conditions, you can start to prepare your paraglider․ First, you need to lay out the paraglider on the ground and attach the lines to the risers․ Once the lines are attached, you can start to inflate the paraglider․

To inflate the paraglider, you need to run forward into the wind․ As you run, the wind will fill the paraglider and lift it into the air․ Once the paraglider is inflated, you can start to take off․

Landing

Landing a paraglider is not as difficult as you might think․ However, it does require some practice․

The first step is to find a suitable landing spot․ Look for a flat, open area with no obstacles․

Once you have found a suitable landing spot, you need to approach it slowly and gently․

To land, you need to flare the paraglider․ To do this, you need to pull on both brakes at the same time․ This will cause the paraglider to slow down and descend․
