Common Injuries
Hang Gliding can be dangerous and should not be undertaken lightly. Thermal and wind currents can make the Glider challenging to control, leading to collisions with highly stationary objects or crashes.
Injuries received can range from bruising to broken bones. Fatalities are usually related to head injuries.
To avoid injuring yourself when Hang Gliding, follow a few simple steps:
- Ensure you have had training from a Qualified Instructor before starting Hang Gliding.
- Ensure you have the proper equipment, including a suit, harness, and hang Glider.
- Choose a location that is appropriate to your skill level. Do not try anything too challenging as a beginner.
- Make sure the weather conditions are conducive to a safe flight.
Pre-Existing Medical Conditions
If you have pre-existing medical conditions and plan to participate in Hang Gliding, we can provide you with a policy.
