MOSTLY done by people (who do not want to kill themselves at least), who are trained in small canopy paragliding, (NOT just skydiving, but the small canopy experience does help) and Using design specific speed flying/riding (foot launch/ski launch respectively) gliders. NOT your muppet clapped out swooping canopy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
