Skypark Utsunomiya offers beginning paragliding lessons, tandem flights with certified instructors, and certification courses to receive a license to fly. We opted for the half day course which included a beginner's lesson and a tandem flight for ¥12,500. The instructors are very friendly and knowledgeable, and most of them can speak a little English. Catch some air!

I did get a bit of motion sickness but it wasn't too bad. My bf's guide did the "jet coaster" spinning thing. I could see it happening and pointed it out to my guide and said "if you do that, I'll puke." So he didn't!
I would be up to try again if the situation presented itself, maybe somewhere with different scenery. I heard there are some out by Mt. Fuji!

You lucked out and got perfect weather for your first reserved day? Looks great. Did you feel any motion sickness? Going to try again? For me, once is enough. I also had a great experience at Skypark.
