Parasail?

I have flown next to one in an ultralight but never had a chance to fly one.

I think you'll like it, everyone I've talked to that has flown one loved it. You going to buy one or rent?

You can have the dog. Will be a nice pup once he gets done tearing your limbs off.

Huff swears he's a good dog and very friendly, I believe him. But at this point, I'm still up there with the fed ex and ups guy.

I will make sure to take good care of your wife and kids when the crash happens! Is the shop heated, nevermind it doesn't matter. JK!

Had two friends that bought those things and they both used them once or twice a year. The wind is a major factor if you are trying to fly one of those and we live in ND. The winds aloft were almost ALWAYS over what those things could handle and both those guys damn near died when the wind changed and the sails either buckled or twisted. They look fun, but I would advise against it and send you to ride the mechanical bull if you are looking for a thrill and the opportunity to bleed. At least the ambulance can drive to the front door instead of into a field or up a tree. Good Luck!!!

I'd try it. Those guys that skydive through mountain valleys with those bat-wing suits looks fun too.

Unless things have changed; IMHO they're so damn loud as to negate any thrill of "flying". Fishing back in the Hills one time when one came over. It took him "two hours" to go away. Quite the echo in that valley...

Like a straight pipe bike which won't go anywhere; like it's stuck in first gear...
