Paragliding
I went paragliding in the Swiss Alps. My favorite part was when I went in a spiral like a roller coaster. I got to stay up longer than my cousin because when I ran off the cliff and a gust of wind picked me up. I flew a long way from the landing site.
When I got on track, I started going into a spiral for fun. I must have pulled 5 times Earth’s gravity. When I was landing, I had to put my legs straight until I was two feet off the ground to get more length to land. When I landed, my mom was taking a video of my cousin. When she took a video, I was already out of my harness. I loved it!
