What is the difference between parachuting and parasailing?
Para-gliding involves using a harness that is attached to a small sailing sail to fly above the earth. The harness allows for you to fly. It protects you from falling through the air.
Flying doesn't require any equipment. All you have to do is attach your self to the sail. Then you go off. The wind pulls the sail against you as you climb in altitude. This forces the sail to lift you.
As you glide along, your momentum keeps you moving forward. Your momentum will propel you forward until the cable ends. At that point, you release your grip and fall back to earth.
If you're ready, reattach your sail.
Parasailing has been growing rapidly. 2013 saw parasailing reach more than 1,000,000. It was almost double the number that did so in 2008.

How To
How do I get started with Base Jumping?
Base jumping is also known as parachuting or free-fall. It involves jumping from fixed objects such as buildings, bridges and towers without any equipment. To land safely, the participant must jump off the object. It is similar to skydiving, except that there is no requirement to wear a parachute, nor do you have to hold your breath while waiting to open it.
The most common type is a wingsuit jumping suit. A wingsuit is composed of two pieces of fabric that are sewn together. One piece covers chest and arms, while the second one covers the legs. The boots are specially designed to allow the jumper stand upright during flight. Jumpers pull the straps that attach to their feet tightly during descent. The material covering the legs will bunch up and create a large pocket under the body. Once the air pocket has grown large enough, the jumper will open his/her parachut and land safely.
Base jumpers may use powered suits to propel themselves faster through the air. Two main components of powered suits are a backpack with batteries and a pack that can be worn underneath the jumper's clothing. These small rockets shoot hot gas jets at high speeds from these packs. This creates a thrust that propels the jumper forward. These suits can be noisy and heavy.
Some people who want to try out BASE jumping don't know what they're getting into. You need to be aware of the dangers involved in learning how to BASE jump. You can fall off a height, get hit head-on or upside-down, or collide and injure another jumper. Although BASE jumping isn't always dangerous, it can prove very dangerous if done incorrectly. To avoid injury, check out the following safety tips before attempting to BASE jump.
First, practice safe BASE jumping techniques by practicing on a smaller hill. You should always take a few minutes to get comfortable with the terrain before jumping off a larger one. Second, watch out for weather conditions. If the wind isn’t blowing, don’t jump. Foggy skies are another danger. If you can see more then 10ft ahead of you, you may need to wait for the clouds to clear. The third thing you should do is make sure that you have all the gear. Make sure you have a helmet, goggles, gloves, and a full suit with a harness. Fourth, ensure you have a plan. Ask someone to join you if things go wrong before you leave the ground. Never, ever jump alone. Always have someone with you.
