How much do you know about Paragliding?

Paragliding is a fun, exciting and easy way to fly!  An inflatable wing and harness are used to experience this form of flying. Paragliding is a unique sport that offers excitement, Scenic beauty, relaxation and adventure.

There are two main ways that a paraglider gains height:

• In rising columns of air, namely thermals
• fly into moving air that is being pushed upward into the terrain

Paragliders can fly high and in most countries are legally allowed to fly up to 10 000 feet or 3000 metres. The paraglider can control this by weight shifting or using break lines.

Parapax offers Paragliding, Paramotoring and Tandem Paragliding.  

Check out the rest of our website for photos, and all the information and tips you need to know! You will gain the appreciation for this sport. You will be hooked!

Feel good from yesterday’s exercises?

Cape Town is covered in rain today. Parapax has got some fun indoor activities for you to do to prepare for your paragliding or paramotoring experience. How about grab a friend and go tandem paragliding? After this session, we are positive that you will be ready to take the plunge!

1. Lean on one leg. Make sure you have enough space around you. Lift your arms and start flapping them. Up and down for 2 min. Gradually increasing speed. Essential, because you need to know how a bird feels being in the sky. 
2. Think of what you would say when you take the plunge when paragliding. Scream it for 2 min. This will help warm up your vocal cords so that when you paraglide and scream this doesnt damage them.
3. Stand in front of a fan for 5 min. The fan must be on full speed. Feel the wind blowing through your face. Preparing you for the freshing winds in your face while paragliding.

You will be a pro at this in no time!

Winter in Cape Town can be rainy and cold. The locals tend to make for the fire place or the nearest wine farm. But amongst the doom and gloom there are those glorious winter days where the sun is shining, the wind is spot on and flying conditions perfect. We don’t miss any opportunity to fly, as long as we are sure that conditions are right and your safety is taken care of we are out at Lions Head doing what we do best, taking to the skies…
