Final words
Most of us today live in a dependent society where we are regulated and protected
Individuals rarely are afforded opportunities to develop the self responsibility that is the
foundation of safety in extreme sports such as paragliding
Most accidents are caused by getting into situations that are too demanding for your
level of experience This happens if you lack fundamental understanding are incapable of
assessing the risk or simply do not pay sufficient attention to your surroundings or your
own state of mind
To stay safe the best you can do is to increase your understanding skill and experience
at a rate you can manage safely There is no substitute for self responsibility and good
judgement
In the end paragliding offers a unique opportunity to learn to take control of your own
destiny Memento mori carpe diem
Fly safely and E N J O Y
