Don't be so sure. I paraglide, mostly because of the
cost and also
convieniance. You will find the better paraglider
pilots all have a
bigger interest in soaring as a whole, and respect
and recognise the
skill soaring requires over any other sport (you have
to read inivisible
weather systems, learn about areodynamics and so on).
By soaring I mean
paragliding/hanggliding/sailplanes. Im sure when I
have the money and
stability, I will move in to sailplanes.

HA, I bet this guy just can't wait to jump into a
junky 2-33 with some crusty old-timer in the backseat
yelling at him...rather then what he is doing now
