Sam made the afternoon's hang gliding experience relaxing, super-safe and great fun. From setup to take-off to landing, it was a really good way to enjoy a bird's eye view of the North Devon coastline, and one I would highly recommend. Once you've got over the fact that you're essentially 'jumping off a cliff' the rest seems easy. Thanks for a great experience Sam.
