The Parasailing Pack

The Parasailing Equpiments mainly consist of a Glider, which in its inflated form offers resistance to the wind and the air. Then there is a harness which is attached to the paraglider and the pilot for safety purpose. A helmet and a extra parachute is there for the safety and the emergency landing of the pilot. VARIOMETER is the main instrument for gaugingthe ascent and the descent of the pilot.


Types Of Parasailing

In India, mainly three type of Parasailing are the most popular ones:

»Winchboat Parasailing : In this sort of Parasailing the ascent and descent of the parasailor takes place from the boat itself. The boat in the sea is well equipped with parasailing equipments. It has a parasail inflation system and hydraulic winch powered by the main drive engine. These two help in launching and retriving the parasailorfrom the flight deck.

»Beach Parasailing : As the name suggests the beach is the main ground for the ascent and descent of the parasailor. It is much more complicated than the Winchboat Parasailing. Even the most experienced parasailors are not approved for this without prior permission.

» Platform Parasailing : In this sort of ParaSailing one flies under the winds which are below 5 to 15 mph, away from rough ocean and poor weathe conditions and other things close to proximity.

  • Beautiful Beaches of India- By Mrinale Gupta
    ......See the coral reefs and the tortoise swimming here. (The Lakshadweep Islands are the only Islands in India which have the Coral Reefs). Watch out the thrill of discovery and the access to the seascape well beyond the bounds of the human discovery imagination. Play with the froth, swim in the layers of waters, feel the touch of the reefs, dip into the sea and the sea animals for yourself. .... ....
