FAQ
What makes a sport extremely extreme?
Since ancient times, sports are a part of our daily lives. They've evolved to be more than just competitions for athletes. Some sports have become part of our culture.

How is parasailing different from parachuting?
Para-gliding involves flying above the ground using a harness attached to a small sail. This harness allows you fly. The harness keeps you safe if you fall through the air.

Once you are ready to go again, attach the sail to your body.
