Scooter Tow Hang Gliding School, Whitewater

The crew at Scooter Tow Hang Gliding School get newbies airborne in a matter of hours. Without ever having to strap into a tandem contraption with an instructor, students take flight with the help of a gentle towing mechanism that pulls them along. The glider hovers about 4 feet above the ground, which is just enough height to start learning how to take-off, steer, and land. Lessons last up to 4 hours, and include up to 10 launches.
