Thx to David and to Janet. Cool, fun and helpful videos! For the small guys who have asked, yes you can fly too! A lot of hang gliding schools will take kids on dual control flights, for example try Lookout Mountain. Also Kitty Hawk Kites do courses for kids out there on the sand dunes in NC.

how old do u have to be to go on one with an adult?

OMG I've seen so many expert village videos and the thought of them instructing anyone to hang glide is a super seriously SCARY proposition. I've seen their "how-to's" on home improvement and they were bad enough.

I am just 13, I sooo wanna hang - glide but at the first few times maybe ill go with an instructor, I am scared if I go alone, what if I crash? what happens if I hurt my food or can't get down? I want to do this yet I get scared if I do it.

@3333sweetie I've flown with three Japanese pilots all shorter than 5' and one of them a woman. They did not speak much English (and I didn't speak much Japanese) but all of them had over 1000 hours of flight time. I think both hang gliding and paragliding require constant learning. I don't think you ever stop learning to fly. I'm licensed to fly fixed wing aircraft, I've flown sailplanes, as well as hang gliders. Flying is always an adventure. I'm always learning.
