Parasailing is a sport in which the rider is hitched to a parachute, known as a Parasail. The parasail is set aloft in the air. The Parasail is attached to a long towrope, which is pulled along, by boat. When the speed exceeds the stalling speed, the parasail rises, hoisting the passenger up into the air. The parascender has little or no control over the parachute. There are 5 parts of a parasail. The harness attaches the pilot to the parasail, which is connected to the boat by the tow rope. This exhilarating experience is a must for all thrill-seekers. Parasailing turns you into a human kite suspended hundreds of feet above the emerald green waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

History of parasailing ?
Parasailing begun in the 60's when Piere Lamoigne attached parachute to a car. It was a way to teach parachuters. They would raise them at the certain height and then they would let them free. That method was called parascending. In the middle of 1961, a parachute company started making parachutes under name parasail.
At the beginning of 70's Mark McCulloh set standars in parasailing. He was the first one to start commercialy used parachutes at the sea. At the beginning raising parasails was done from the schore and then from the specialy made platforms on a boat.
Parasailing is perfect combination of parachuting, paragliding and sailing merged into experience that would take your breath away. You are never too old to have another new experience. You don't have often opportunity to fly without wings and enjoy in bird-perspective the views on the nerby islands.

The term "river of grass" is one which you may recognize in association with the Everglades. This is an interpretation of "Pay-ha-okee," a Native American term meaning "grass river" which conservationist Marjory Stoneman Douglas used in her 1947 book The Everglades: River of Grass.

We are growing older, but are younger then that now. |
