For paragliding, you need a wing, harness, reserve, helmet,... These are the most obvious things, right? But there’s one important piece of equipment that often doesn’t get mentioned right away: a good backpack. A good backpack is crucial for carrying your entire flying kit around comfortably and efficiently. And depending on what you’re using it for, there are different types of backpacks available. Today, we’re taking a look at the Woody Valley Rucksack Light 2.
Which backpack do you use? Do you have more than one?
