Para Sailing
Parasailing, also known as “parakiting”, or parascending, is a recreational activity where a person is towed behind a vehicle (usually a boat) while having been attached to a specially designed canopy wing: a piece of parachute-like equipment.
This is actually more like a thrill ride than a sport since you have no control over what happens during the flight. You cannot control or steer the lift of the parasail. You simply drift in the air – hundreds of feet above the ocean – with the breeze brushing against your face and allowing you an aerial view of the scenery.
Age Limit
Parasailing is allowed for people aged six years and above. But anyone under the age of 18 years must present a no-objection form signed by a parent for parasailing.
Weight Limit
There exists a weight limit in parasailing. The weight should be 100-500 pounds for a parasailing batch to plunge into flight. A batch can include one or more people. It should be kept in mind that any weight heavier than 500 pounds will cause the parasailing line to snap, so the weight restrictions must be followed with caution as they are generally there to protect the participants from injuring themselves.
