Beginner Hang Gliding at Jockey's Ridge Outer Banks NC
Video of a beginner hang gliding class at Jockey's Ridge, NC. This video shows what to expect on your first hang gliding flights. The instructers are good and the hang gliding is safe and lots of fun for young kids to older adults.
Beginner hang gliding lessons start with an hour long classroom instruction followed by two hours of hang gliding on the dunes. Each person gets five flights spaced over a pleasant two hour timeframe. The instructors ensure that the gliders do not get away from the student (and they carry the glider back up the dune).
The dunes are also a lot of fun to play on. See my other video Family Dune Jumping at Jockey's Ridge Outer Banks NC.

About us
We fell in love with each other at an RV show and as a result we fell in love with campers too. For years we have been going to RV shows and picking out our favorites and dreaming of the day we would be able to have one of our own. Then in the summer of 2017 after a series of major mishaps (Our car being totaled, pay cuts and layoffs and a trip to the ER) we purchased our first camper, a Jayco Qwest for less than 5000. Then we began the process of downsizing. Now we are traveling and exploring the RV Lifestyle.
