They do paracending from the beach behind speed boats here in summer. Watched them many many times while out with Charlie. One time, a lady was taking off, something went wrong and she fell onto the beach from maybe 8m. Hard pebbles. Obviously they had not secured her harness. Taken off in an ambulance.
