After the required paperwork and a pre-flight briefing, launch generally involves only a few committed steps before you are airborne.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce in the air, you will be seated comfortably in the harness with open views along the coastline. We can communicate throughout the flight and, when conditions and circumstances are suitable, you may also have the opportunity to take the controls and experience steering the paraglider yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTypical flight duration:\u003c\/strong\u003e approximately 30 minutes, although actual airtime depends entirely on the weather and flying conditions on the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat to bring\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable enclosed footwear such as runners, cross-trainers or light hiking shoes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSunscreen and sunglasses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA windbreaker or jacket — it can be considerably cooler in the air\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWeather and seasonal availability\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eParagliding is completely weather-dependent and coastal flying requires the right wind direction and strength. On the Central Coast, the winter period is commonly dominated by westerly or offshore winds that are unsuitable for our coastal tandem sites. As a result, we generally do not operate coastal tandem flights from around mid-May until approximately early to mid-October.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGift vouchers are valid for 36 months from the date of purchase.\u003c\/strong\u003e If a voucher would otherwise expire during, or be materially affected by, the non-conducive winter flying period, Cloudbase will honour the voucher beyond that period so you are not disadvantaged simply because suitable coastal flying conditions were unavailable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePassenger requirements\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinimum age: 14 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePassengers under 18 require parental or guardian consent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum passenger weight is generally 110–115 kg, subject to the conditions and equipment configuration on the day\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGift vouchers\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGift vouchers are emailed after purchase.
