Parasailing, sometimes called as "Parascending" is one of the fastest growing sports around the globe. In the first place, parasailing is a fun ride or a mere recreation, not to be confused with the sport called paragliding. But still you can attach competition in it.This activity uses a specially-designed parachute, known as the "parasail" where a person or two, called the "parascender" is attached. The harness is very important as it connects to the vehicle (a boat) by a tow rope. When the boat drives off, the parascenders will be dragged behind and lifted to the air.

This may sound crazy but if you wanted to experience a kind of kick of freedom and excitement, parasailing could be the appropriate sport for you.In the Philippine setting, there is one place where parasailing is best done and it is in...more
