    Link to some interesting "Paraskiing"
    Took it from another board and it runs poorly if you don't "save as".

    Enjoy

    That is so fricking cool. I've had dreams about what that sensation would feel like ever since I start hanggliding. These guys beat me to it, damn.
    I'm back.

    That's rad. Looks like so much fun. I am suprised though that there are resorts that allow people to do that. Does anyone know if its allowed in the states.

    I'm not sure, but that was most likely Europe. They'll let you do whatever you want.
