The glide ratio of paragliders ranges from

9.3 for recreational wings to about 11.3 for modern competition models,[16]

reaching in some cases up to 13.[17] For comparison, a typical skydiving

parachute will achieve about 3:1 glide. A hang glider ranges from 9.5 for

recreational wings to about 16.5 for modern competition models. An idling

(gliding) Cessna 152 light aircraft will achieve 9:1. Some sailplanes can

achieve a glide ratio of up to 72:1.

The speed range of paragliders is typically

20–75 kilometres per hour (12–47 mph), from stall speed to maximum speed.

Beginner wings will be in the lower part of this range, high-performance wings

in the upper part of the range.[note 2]

For storage and carrying, the wing is

usually folded into a stuffsack (bag), which can then be stowed in a large

backpack along with the harness. For pilots who may not want the added weight

or fuss of a backpack, some modern harnesses include the ability to turn the

harness inside out such that it becomes a backpack.

These developments were combined in June

1978 by three friends, Jean-Claude Bétemps, André Bohn and Gérard Bosson, from

Mieussy, Haute-Savoie, France. After inspiration from an article on slope

soaring in the Parachute Manual magazine by parachutist and publisher Dan

Poynter,[7] they calculated that on a suitable slope, a "square"

ram-air parachute could be inflated by running down the slope; Bétemps launched

from Pointe du Pertuiset, Mieussy, and flew 100 m. Bohn followed him and glided

down to the football pitch in the valley 1000 metres below.[8]

"Parapente" (pente being French for "slope") was born.

From the 1980s, equipment has continued to

improve, and the number of paragliding pilots and established sites has

continued to increase. The first (unofficial) Paragliding World Championship

was held in Verbier, Switzerland, in 1987,[9] though the first officially

sanctioned FAI World Paragliding Championship was held in K?ssen, Austria, in

1989.[10]

The top of each line is attached to small

fabric loops sewn into the structure of the wing, which are generally arranged

in rows running span-wise (i.e., side to side). The row of lines nearest the

front are known as the A lines, the next row back the B lines, and so on.[14] A

typical wing will have A, B, C and D lines, but recently, there has been a

tendency to reduce the rows of lines to three, or even two (and experimentally

to one), to reduce drag.

Paraglider lines are usually made from

Dyneema/Spectra or Kevlar/Aramid.[14] Although they look rather slender, these

materials are immensely strong. For example, a single 0.66 mm-diameter line

(about the thinnest used) can have a breaking strength of 56 kg.[15]

Paraglider wings typically have an area of

20–35 square metres (220–380 sq ft) with a span of 8–12 metres (26–39 ft) and

weigh 3–7 kilograms (6.6–15.4 lb). Combined weight of wing, harness, reserve,

instruments, helmet, etc. is around 12–22 kilograms (26–49 lb).

Launching

As with all aircraft, launching and landing

are done into wind. The wing is placed into an airstream, either by running or

being pulled, or an existing wind. The wing moves up over the pilot into a

position in which it can carry the passenger. The pilot is then lifted from the

ground and, after a safety period, can sit down into his harness. Unlike

skydivers, paragliders, like hang gliders, do not "jump" at any time

during this process. There are two launching techniques used on higher

ground[20] and one assisted launch technique used in flatland areas:

The next step in the launch is to bring the

wing into the lift zone. There are two techniques for accomplishing this

depending on wind conditions. In light wind this is usually done after turning

to the front, steering with the feet towards the low wing tip, and applying

light brakes in a natural sense to keep the wing horizontal. In stronger wind

conditions it is often found to be easier to remain facing downwind while

moving slowly and steadily backwards into the wind.

Knees bent to load the wing, foot

adjustments to remain central and minimum use of Cs or Brakes to keep the wing

horizontal. Pirouette when the feet are close to lifting. This option has two

distinct advantages. a) The pilot can see the wing centre marker (an aid to

centring the feet) and, if necessary, b) the pilot can move briskly towards the

wing to assist with an emergency deflation.

With either method it is essential to check

"traffic" across the launch face before committing to flight.
