My passion in life has been mostly raceing MX. I've done so for the better part of two decades. Since my wife raced too it made things easer.

Tried golf, and trap shooting but found car racing to be the only subsitute. I currently race a highly modifyed Porsche 944 in SCCA trials.

Oh yea in my youth I was a ski bumb for a couple winters, one in Jackson Hole, and another in Summit county CO. Also worked in the industry for 4 years where I skied every day at Big Sky MT.

I'd still love to give parasailing a try! Glad you had a great time!
I keep waiting for the desire to get back up there and do paragliding away...but it isn't going away >.<.

I'm gonna look into really doing the licensing and see about picking up some beginner gear. It isn't a cheap thing - but the investment is all right up front. Then it is practically free from there.

Also - I had a TON of fun at the kayak rolling class. It was tough and I'm sore - but it is definitely something I am going to keep doing. I managed to successfully roll by myself once - just need to have a couple of more nights of practice in a pool then I'll go hit up the Hiawassee with my brother
