We had special visitors at school last week and we'd like to share some photos with you.The visitors were paragliding instructors. Gliding and paragliding becomes more and more popular in our area. ŻAR Mountain is the local center of these sports.
Our guests told us all about flying the wing.
The paraglider sits in a harness suspended below a fabric wing. The shape of the wing is formed by its suspension lines and the pressure of air entering vents in the front of the wing. Paragliding is a recreational and competitive flying sport. Is is also classified as exteme or adventure sport.
