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!
