Paragliding Indonesia Java Notes
- All you need are some warm clothes and a good pair of boots.
- People of both sexes and all ages take up the sport of paragliding.
- You don’t have to be super fit to paraglide but you probably won’t enjoy it much if you are really unfit! There will be fair amount of walking up hills and the ground handling calls for some exertion especially in the early days, when the wings always seem to be fighting you.
- Expect to be asked about health matters before you sign on at our partner Indonesian paragliding training school. Piloting and drugs do not mix. Your instructor will not let you fly if you have consumed alcohol that day, or if they suspect that you have taken drugs.
- In any case, if you suffer from heart problems or epilepsy or any other medical condition, which may cause difficulty you should certainly consult your doctor first before signing up for a paragliding course.
