Looks exciting, but not for me. I don't like heights. How far are you able to travel?

it all depends on the wind, we were aloft for about 40 min, I had to cut it short because of a previous engagement
we stood in the area of Hamaca de dios restaurant, that's were the landing zone is

its cheaper to buy in the states when you go and bring it in as a luggage, no license required here, they even certify you in a training classes in Jarabacoa

Cool! Could you give some more details? This is something I still haven't done. Maybe where the jump off point is? Who to contact? What the price includes? Do you get a guaranteed fly-time or does it depend on the wind conditions? Thanks.
