Parasail Video for Slower Connections

 		 Have you have ever dreamt of floating high above a tranquil sea with a gorgeous vista of white sand and blue seas below?  Can you imagine life's daily noises replaced by ocean breezes and the occasional cry of a distant gull?  At once utterly peaceful and completely exhilarating, parasailing is a wonderful experience.  Memories of parasailing (especially with Downwind Sails Watersports) will be treasured for a lifetime.

Step 1

Call us for a reservation at 843-448-SAIL.

  

Step 2

Stop by our shack on the deck between Damon's and the Crown Reef to sign in and stow your gear.

Step 3

Listen for your name on the loud speaker and meet us on the beach at the Parasail Station. Here you will be fitted with a  Coast Guard approved personal flotation device or PFD if you want to sound like an Old Salt!

Step 4

Into the surf!  Climb aboard the launch craft (sort of a cross between Banana Boat and Zodiac) and be towed by Jetski to rendezvous with one of Downwind Sails Parasail Boats.

Step 5

Enjoy coastal vistas and salty spray while you are fitted with a safety harness. Meanwhile the Parasail Crew prepares the chute.

Step 6

After the chute is inflated, you will be seated on the aft deck and attached to the chute.

Step 7

It's GO time!  One moment you're sitting and the next the boat is receding beneath you.  You climb higher and higher until you are hundreds of feet in the air where you will hang about 15 minutes before before being reeled back in towards the Atlantic Ocean and the Downwind Sails Parasail Boat and Crew.
