The pilot sits in a harness suspended below a fabric wing, whose shape is formed by the pressure of air entering vents in the front of the wing.

    Land-based practice: Catching a wind. Parafoil fully up in land-based practice. Paragliding in Swiss mountains The paraglider wing or canopy is known in aeronautical engineering as a ram-air airfoil, or parafoil . Such wings are comprised of two layers of fabric which are connected to internal supporting material in such a way as to form a row of cells. By leaving most of the cells open only at the leading edge, incoming air (ram-air pressure) keeps the wing inflated, thus maintaining its shape. When inflated, the wing's cross-section has the typical teardrop aerofoil shape.

    Home Two Raven Scoop Written by Ann Sasaki Monday, 14 January 2008 Happy New Year BAPA Members! Kurt Niznik and I are putting some interesting, informative and enjoyable events on the BAPA calendar this year. Here is a brief overview of upcoming items:
    In April, June and August there will be BAPA fly-ins in conjunction with the Cross Country Co-op organized by Susan Kent. These should be fun weekends. You can come to free fly at the fly-in and/or fly in the Co-op, practicing short cross-country flights. More details to come.
    We will likely have a Hat Creek Solstice fly-in in late June because it all worked out well last year and Hat Creek is a very scenic and soulful experience.

    ... How To Order Today's modern paraglider is a marvel of fabric and lines. Now certified to strict standards, the new wings are safer, more stable and have better performance than ever before. Your paraglider wing will be your most important purchase. We recommend new students always buy their first glider from their instructor. The instructor will assist the student with the decision of which type, level and size of wing is appropriate for them. Read more about why we would like you to buy your glider from us here. Also, please beware of buying a used glider from an ad or eBay, read our Paraglider Safety Information first! We can offer almost every brand of paraglider that are made today, and we have chosen to work with what we believe to be the finest wings available, in terms of performance, handling, support and price.
