Paragliding Equipment

Paragliding equipment includes a wing (paraglider) that resembles a flexible wing or parachute, designed to catch the air and provide lift. A harness secures the pilot to the wing and offers comfort and control. The lines connect the pilot to the wing, allowing steering through brake handles and toggles. Additional gear includes a helmet for safety, reserve parachutes for emergencies, and sometimes variometers to measure ascent or descent rates. Overall, this equipment works together to enable a pilot to glide smoothly through the air, navigate wind currents, and enjoy aerial flight safely.
