Vagamon Paragliding faqs

When is the best time to visit Vagamon for paragliding?

The summer season is perfect for paragliding in Vagamon because during the summers the weather conditions remain dry and the wind speed remains normal which is more suitable for the paragliding activity.

How is paragliding done?

The paragliding activity is done with the theory of hang gliding. The pilot spreads the parachute before the take-off which pumps up the wind in the area of the parachute which browns it up and makes it ready to fly. The pilot flies the parachute with the help of wind and parachute ropes to guide it in the right direction by following the landing marks and directions.

The parachute landing is a tricky part of the whole activity because it requires a perfect position of both the pilot and tourists to land it with perfection and that's how the whole activity is being done.

What is solo paragliding & what is tandem paragliding?

The term Solo paragliding means paragliding which includes only one single glider flying the parachute alone. The term Tandem Paragliding means totally opposite of solo paragliding which includes one core dedicated instructor or glider and a passenger with him.

The package which we are offering to you is a tandem paragliding package that includes a glider with the passenger to accompany him throughout the experience.

Can one capture his video while paragliding in Vagamon?

Yes, During the Paragliding activity you are allowed to capture your own video. The paragliding pilot asks you to hold the camera stick so that you can record the wonderful moments with your eyes as well as in the camera. You need to hold the camera tightly for the better video shoot but in case if somehow in excitement or in fear the camera stick falls down from your hands then you don't need to worry about it because it is connected to the paragliding gears which keep it safe.
