hang liding in brazil

Today im going to first give you an introduction to hang gliding and thentell u what it is like in Brazil.
Hang gliding is one of the simplest forms of human flight. A hang glider is a non-motorized, foot-launched wing. A Hang glider has a rigid frame maintaining the shape of the wing, with the pilot usually flying in a prone position. The hang glider wing is constructed of rip-stop nylon or mylar over an aluminum frame.

Hang gliders are controlled by shifting the pilot's weight with respect to the glider. Pilots are suspended from a strap connected to the glider's frame (hence the name "hang" glider). By moving forward and backward and side to side at the end of this strap, the pilot alters the center of gravity of the glider. This then causes the glider to pitch or roll in the direction of the pilot's motion and thus allows both speed control and turning.With a hang glider, you can fly like a bird, soaring upwards on currents of air. Hang gliders routinely stay aloft for 3 hours or more, climb to elevations of 15,000', and go cross-country for vast distances. 

You will have the unique sensation of flying like a bird, with a light breeze of tropical air in your face and surrounded by the beautiful mountains and beaches of Rio de Janeiro.Flying a not propelled aircraft means gliding smoothly through the air, after seven steps over the platform you will feel and understand why birds are peaceful animals. The fear of not touching the ground will disappear and will be overcome by tranquility of floating in the air. During flight you will also see the main attractions of Rio de Janeiro ; Sugar loaf , Corcovado, Copacabana , Ipanema , Lagoa and the city of Niteroi on the other side of the Guanabara Bay.A smooth landing on the sandy beach of Sao Conrado will thoroughly refresh you . The whole adventure can be photographed by our special camera attached to the glider or video recorded so you can revise your first. i hope u go to rio and try it out, i promise it wont disappoint you.
