How is parasailing different than parachuting
Para-gliding involves flying above the ground using a harness attached to a small sail. The harness allows you to fly. It protects you from falling through the air.
Flying requires no special equipment. You simply attach yourself to the sail. Then, you can take off. As you gain altitude, the wind pushes against the sail. This allows it to lift you.

Once you are ready to go again, attach the sail to your body.
