🪣 Why Fly Buckets? 🪣
Training is a crucial part of parasailing. When it comes to taking someone 250-300 feet above the water, we ensure even the smallest details are meticulously worked through.
Benefits of Buckets:
• Training New Captains: Buckets are essential when captains are first learning to fly parasails. After three years of experience in the parasail industry, captains can begin flying parasails. The current standard requires 500 unmanned flight rotations before flying paying customers. Multiple buckets allow a captain to adjust the weight in the parasail, simulating real people. At Paradise, we have four buckets ranging from 40 lbs to 210 lbs, allowing us to adjust the weight in the chute from 40 lbs to 510 lbs. This flexibility gives captains the experience needed to handle any situation they might face.
• Flying in Unfit Conditions: We follow ASTM standards, which include wind limits of 20 mph sustained and gust variations over 15 mph. On windy days, the captain and crew conduct on-water training. This hands-on training involves deploying safety equipment and replicating high-wind, high-stress situations that would not occur in daily operations. We believe a captain will always revert to their most trained habits, so we prepare for the unexpected.
• Testing New Equipment: Each season, we replace our line, hydraulic fluid, filters, bearings, and any worn or used parasail rigging. After these services, we fly buckets to ensure there are no manufacturing defects. We also perform services every 100 hours and routine maintenance, using buckets in these situations ensures all systems operate properly.
