Paragliding Sport


Paragliding is typically a recreational flying sport but can also be competitive in nature. A paraglider is a free-flying, engineless foot-launched parachute. The pilot sits in a harness suspended below a fabric wing. This photo depicts an instructor and a paying passenger flying in tandem. The scene is set in Cape Town and the photograph was taken from the launching point on Lions Head - part of Table Mountain.
