Para-gliding refers to flying above the ground using an attached harness and small sail. This harness allows you fly. It helps you stay safe as you fall through air.
Flying requires no special equipment. Attach yourself to the sail. You then take off. As you gain altitude, the wind pushes against the sail. This causes it to lift you.
You keep moving forward, as you glide along ground. Your momentum propels you forward until you reach its end. You release your grip at that point and return to the earth.
You can reattach the sail when you are ready to begin again.
