Reverse launches have a number of
advantages over a forward launch. It is more straightforward to inspect the
wing and check if the lines are free as it leaves the ground. In the presence
of wind, the pilot can be tugged toward the wing, and facing the wing makes it
easier to resist this force and safer in case the pilot slips (as opposed to
being dragged backwards). However, the movement pattern is more complex than
forward launch, and the pilot has to hold the brakes in a correct way and turn
to the correct side so he does not tangle the lines. These launches are
normally attempted with a reasonable wind speed, making the ground speed
required to pressurise the wing much lower.
The launch is initiated by the hands
raising the leading edge with the As. As it rises the wing is controlled more
by centring the feet than by use of the brakes or Cs. With mid level wings (EN
C and D) the wing may try to "overshoot" the pilot as it nears the
top. This is checked with Cs or brakes. The wing becomes increasingly sensitive
to the Cs and brakes as its internal air pressure rises.

Harness
A pilot with harness (light blue),
performing a reverse launch
The pilot is loosely and comfortably
buckled into a harness, which offers support in both the standing and sitting
positions. Most harnesses have foam or airbag protectors underneath the seat
and behind the back to reduce the impact on failed launches or landings. Modern
harnesses are designed to be as comfortable as a lounge chair in the sitting or
reclining position. Many harnesses even have an adjustable "lumbar
support". A reserve parachute is also typically connected to a paragliding
harness.
Harnesses also vary according to the need
of the pilot, and thereby come in a range of designs, mostly: Training harness
for beginners, Pax harness for tandem passengers that often also doubles as a
training harness, XC Harness for long distance cross country flights, All round
harness for basic to intermediate pilots, Pod harness, which is for
intermediate to pro pilots that focus on XC. Acro harnesses are special designs
for acrobatic pilots, Kids tandem harnesses are also now available with special
child-proof locks.

Land-based practice: Kiting
About that time, David Barish was
developing the "sail wing" (single-surface wing) for recovery of NASA
space capsules – "slope soaring was a way of testing out ... the Sail
Wing."[5] After tests on Hunter Mountain, New York, in September 1965, he
went on to promote slope soaring as a summer activity for ski resorts.[6][7]
Author Walter Neumark wrote Operating
Procedures for Ascending Parachutes, and in 1973 he and a group of enthusiasts
with a passion for tow-launching PCs and ram-air parachutes broke away from the
British Parachute Association to form the British Association of Parascending Clubs
(which later became the British Hang Gliding and Paragliding Association). In
1997, Neumark was awarded the Gold Medal of the Royal Aero Club of the UK.
Authors Patrick Gilligan (Canada) and Bertrand Dubuis (Switzerland) wrote the
first flight manual, The Paragliding Manual in 1985, coining the word
paragliding.
Europe has seen the greatest growth in
paragliding, with France alone registering in 2011 over 25,000 active pilots.

The paraglider wing or canopy is usually
what is known in engineering as a "ram-air airfoil". Such wings
comprise two layers of fabric that are connected to internal supporting
material in such a way as to form a row of cells. By leaving most of the cells
open only at the leading edge, incoming air keeps the wing inflated, thus
maintaining its shape. When inflated, the wing's cross-section has the typical
teardrop aerofoil shape. Modern paraglider wings are made of high-performance
non-porous materials such as ripstop polyester[12] or nylon fabric.[note 1]
In 1952 Canadian Domina Jalbert patented a
governable gliding parachute with multi-cells and controls for lateral
glide.[2]
In 1954, Walter Neumark predicted (in an
article in Flight magazine) a time when a glider pilot would be "able to
launch himself by running over the edge of a cliff or down a slope ... whether
on a rock-climbing holiday in Skye or ski-ing in the Alps."[3]
In 1961, the French engineer Pierre
Lemongine produced improved parachute designs that led to the Para-Commander.
The PC had cutouts at the rear and sides that enabled it to be towed into the
air and steered, leading to parasailing/parascending.
Domina Jalbert invented the Parafoil, which
had sectioned cells in an aerofoil shape; an open leading edge and a closed
trailing edge, inflated by passage through the air – the ram-air design. He
filed US Patent 3131894 on January 10, 1963.[4]

Paragliding is the recreational and competitive adventure sport of flying paragliders: lightweight, free-flying,
foot-launched glider aircraft with no rigid primary structure.[1] The pilot sits in a harness suspended below a fabric wing. Wing shape is maintained by the suspension lines, the pressure of air entering vents in the front of the wing, and the aerodynamic forces of the air flowing over the outside.
Despite not using an engine, paragliderflights can last many hours and cover many hundreds of kilometres, though flights of one to two hours and covering some tens of kilometres are more the norm. By skillful exploitation of sources of lift, the pilot may gain height,
often climbing to altitudes of a few thousand metres.
