4. Health advisories: Paragliding is not suitable for individuals with heart conditions, joint problems, or pregnancy. If you have any medical concerns, consult with your doctor before participating.
5. Enjoy the view, relax: Focus on enjoying the scenery and the experience, rather than constantly worrying about the camera. Relax and take in the breathtaking views.
6. Colorful clothing: Brightly colored clothing tends to photograph better, so feel free to add a splash of color to your paragliding attire.
7. Pay attention to pre-flight instructions: Listen carefully to your instructor’s pre-flight instructions. They will provide important safety guidelines and explain the paragliding process.
8. Ask questions freely: Don’t be afraid to ask questions if you’re unsure about anything. Your instructor is there to help you have a safe and enjoyable experience.
