Parasailing In Karnataka
Parasailing is an exhilarating aero adventure sport organized in different places in Bangalore. The word originates from the ‘para’ of the parachute. The rider, or parasailer, is usually suspended from a parachute that is attached to a fast-moving vehicle.
Types of Parasailing:
Terrestrial Parasailing
In this version, the parasail is attached to speeding cars, usually sports cars, to enable maximum speed to allow the parasailer to float at greater heights.
Aquatic Parasailing
In aquatic parasailing, the parasail would be attached to a speed boat which is controlled by helpers, who alter the speed to enable the rider to float in the parachute at an elevated distance.
Aquatic parasailing is not possible in Bangalore as there are no water bodies fit for this activity. However, Terrestrial parasailing is organized in the city throughout the year with exception of the monsoon season.
