paragliding forum in "related Sports"

Recommended Posts

I second this one, it's something I've been very interested in for quite a while and I would love to have other skydiver's perspective on this related sport. It'd be nice to get a cross-over to paragliding resources and information.

"Other Canopy Sports" would be an excellent catchall for now.

My limited experience suggests that there already is a decent paragliding site out there, so it may not be worth trying to split the market so to speak.

I only check PG sites very occasionally, as I haven't flow my PG much in recent years. Anyone with more experience might have better opinions.

So what's out there already, that are in the english language?

The best I know of is PARAGLIDING FORUM (www.pgforum.com)
While it isn't as sophisticated as dropzone.com, it uses reasonable software and seems to have a moderate following. I'm not sure of its origins, but the moderators and users seem to be spread out a lot -- not just all USA or all Europe.

Then there's also Kinsley Wong's Big Air sports (http://www.web-partners.com/paragliding/)
It has been around a long time, with what seems to be a decent US following, but the forum format is very simple, crude, and not easy to follow.
