I have no desire to bungee jump; I'm sure diehard bungee jumpers would think me a wimp, a loser, etc since I don't want to do it.BTW, have you ever gone paragliding? You should try it sometime - teaches you a lot about canopy control and microclimates.-bill von Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rking12 0 #27 June 10, 2002 Watch a video called Bali High and I will bet you would like to try it. Soon as I saw it I started trying to make reservations to go paraglide. It looks totally awesome! You won't believe the "Bow Ties" These people do with their canopies in the video! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lets' face it, airports are boring places unless you are flying.I tried para-gliding back in the 1980s and thoroughly enjoyed it."I said mad at A paraglider, not all paragliders! I think the sport sounds cool too it's just that I can only afford one high-priced sport at a time!GaleIsn't life the strangest thing you've ever seen?
