Go Paragliding With Me.

in Hive Learnerslast year

I am one of those who have learnt so many things on this platform. I engage with so many people not only because I want to be seen but because I’m learning one thing or the other from all of them. This makes me remember when @flemingfarm used ti make paragliding posts and gives us every detail about it. It got me wondering what paragliding is and I was able to make my research. Since then, I have always had paragliding in mind and I know I’d get to experience what it feels like someday.

In the Hive learners community, we were asked to choose an adventure we’d love to experience if we had the resources and opportunity which takes me back to when I have always seen @flemingfarm make paragliding post.
And with the researches I’ve made, it is something I’d love to try someday.

Paragliding

What is paragliding?

This is a kind of sports in which an individual jumps from a very high place and makes the use of something like a parachute for a successful landing. For better explanation, paragliding is a canopy that mostly represents a parachute is above the person’s body in a way that it will be attached to the person so it won’t fall off so that the person can be able to glide through the air after he or she must have jumped from a very high place. It can be as simple as this but it is surely going to be a wonderful experience.

Is this kind of adventure expensive?

From the look of things and also with the findings I have made, the only thing you need is your canopy and maybe something that can be used to attach the canopy to your body so it won’t fall off. I actually cannot give a specific price in which they sell canopy but I’m very sure that it is affordable and everyone here can afford it. It seem to be a very cheap kind of fun that everyone can have.

What do I plan to achieve with this kind of fun?

I plan to achieve nothing but fun. I just wang it to be fun all through. I’ve never been on a plane before but I heard that people feel weightless when the plane is ascending and descending so I want to feel that weightlessness in the air.
Also, I want to feel that natural breeze. There is no doubt that air conditioner is cool and all those stuffs but none of them is as good as natural air. I want to know how it like to descend in that natural air.

Lastly, I want happiness and I’m sure that this kind of adventure will make me happy so why not. I’m surely going to do this someday and I have to give special thanks to flemingfarm for letting me hear about paragliding for the first time in my life and I’m even planning on doing it.

I know someday, I’d share my pictures of videos of myself paragliding and you all will know how much I wish to do it. Have a nice day!

Sort:  

The hardest thing will be finding someone to teach you. The beaches are a great place to learn and even if you were just to do a tandem flight it will give you the feeling of flight. It's one of the most basic forms of flight and is amazing to hear nothing but the wind with no motor sounds.

Really?
I’m sure some people must be going it here but it will be rare because I heard it from you for the first time

Omo... This would be fun ooo.
I've thought of this too once before, although mine was after I saw it in a movie😂
I hope it will be this easy sha, because I don't want it to be that I'll have to spend a long time learning it or something😂
Anyhow sha, I'm sure you'll be paragliding in no time at all.

Omo make person no go fall Sef
Abeg😂😂😂

We do learn many things here through other people's posts and engaging with them.

Booking for a paragliding adventure is at least affordable here in my country (the rate is about between $60+ for 10-15 minutes of flying).

I look forward to reading about your experience :)

I envy this thing so much.... It's the pick of fun to me.
I see it a lot in movies especially and I always wish it's me.
Flying like a bird in the air🥰🥰🥰

Yes ooh
Make I sha no fall be the koko😂

I'll catch you 🤣

I wish you all the best with that and may your heart's desire be fulfilled soon. It surely is a fun sport

Thank you very much for wishing me well
I’m glad!

The important thing is to dare and I see that you have the attitude. Take a little more advice, train and learn how to perform these jumps in paragliding. Everything can be achieved with desire and effort. Happy week.

Thanks so much
The training is actually the most important thing

Paragliding will be fun from the look of thing, but it has to do with height so I can't do it.

Yes ooh
I can’t wait to give it a try

paragliding. A discipline that would scare me so much to do. Most likely it provides emotions that are difficult to experience with other things

Hahaha
I’m sure you are scared of heights
Right?

Yes!! The reason is precisely that, furthermore it doesn't seem to me that we are made to fly, we don't have wings... the sky is for other living beings. hahaha
