is hang gliding faster or paragliding faster for travelling from one place to another place; both non mechanically powered? thank you.

[speedgliding]

Modern hang gliders can go over 100mph. Paragliders are the slowest aircraft in the world. 25mph is average. Search for "paraglider collapse" to see the real issue with paragliders

In the right conditions can you fly around for however long you want? Because this is the only one I seen like this, all others go straight down. Or if they stay up something is pulling them to give them thrust.

Pretty much. Ive had 6+ hour flights. You can fly windy ridges for hours, or use thermals in the mountains to go up like a hawk does, circling in the rising air

i believe the record is like 11 hours for longest duration. heights of 15000 ft can be acheived

[speedgliding]

Record is over 20,000 feet, and during almost 40 hours.
