Start on gentle slopes before you jump off a cliff. Wear a
helmet, gloves and boots. A strong jump suit will help protect your skin and wear eye protection.

BTW, I have a HG and harness with a chest chute that I don't have time
for anymore. Come take a look and make me an offer. |

Always take off and land into the wind. Learn about rotor, and don't fly in it, ever. Watch your airspeed, stalling near the ground is very bad. Find out about target fixation. Learn in the early morning, or late afternoon, when thermals are least, and the air is smooth.

I've done some hanggliding. I certainly wouldn't recommend anyone learn
on their own. The hand gliding associations have their own "ratings" and "certifications" including instructors. They instructor will run down the hill with you and make sure you know how to control it. Taking off by yourself the first time would be like jumping in a Cessna 150 by yourself. -Robert |
