Paragliders have no rigid structure and are kept in shape by the internal pressure of air, with the pilot suspended by lines beneath. The pilot is clipped into a harness and oriented in a sitting position for maximum comfort. After laying out the wing and lines, launching is simply a matter of moving down the slope a few steps to tension the lines and allow the wind to inflate the wing and raise it above you. A short run forward to pick up airspeed and you’re airborne!  4, record 1, English, - launching

Paraglider pilots launch from gentle hillsides with their gliders already opened for flight; if the glider isn’t flying properly, the launch can be aborted before leaving the ground. Paragliding launches are not as "committing"; if you want to stop your launch, you just stop running and the canopy floats down behind you. The pilot runs down a gentle slope and glides away from the mountain.  2, record 1, English, - launching

Le décollage s'effectue en général dans une pente. Le parapentiste place son aile à terre, bien étalée (en forme de corolle) et face à la pente. Il s'installe dans sa sellette en veillant bien à respecter les vérifications d'usage (points d'accrochages de la sellette, casque, radio et pas de nœuds dans les suspentes). Il faut qu'il y ait une légère brise qui remonte la pente face à lui pour lui faciliter le décollage et que les conditions météorologiques soient adaptées.  2, record 1, French, - d%C3%A9collage

Le décollage dépend aussi des conditions aérologiques et de la structure du relief choisi. On ne saute pas, on ne se jette pas, on décolle et un décollage est rapide lorsqu'il y a un peu de vent de face, et nécessite un peu plus de temps et de course d'élan lorsque le vent est faible ou nul.  3, record 1, French, - d%C3%A9collage

With so many issues competing for their attention, many academics display an initial reluctance to use technology in their learning and teaching. This is often attributed to lack of time, rather than lack of interest. Popular belief states that e-learning techniques are hugely time consuming and expensive. While we have not argued against this notion per se, we do believe that the approach one takes towards the creation of e-learning resources can have a huge impact upon the ’value for money’ and time considerations often put forward as reasons not to engage with e-learning.  4, record 5, English, - e%2Dlearning%20technique

Bungee Jumping first started hundreds of years ago in the South Pacific island of Vanuatu. Young native tribesmen used to leap off huge trees with vines tied to their ankles, as a test of manhood. Contrary to popular belief, modern Bungee Jumping was founded in 1979 from the Clifton Suspension Bridge in Bristol, England. Since then Bungee Jumping has spread to many other countries across the globe, of which America, France, New Zealand and Britain are but a few.  4, record 6, English, - bungee%20jumping

Comme pour tous les autres sports - il y a lieu de distinguer entre le sport ou l'activité, et l'appareil utilisé. Ainsi, «l'élastique» ou «bungee»/«benjy»/«benji» constitue l'appareil (qui, au Québec, doit répondre aux normes de la CSST), et «saut à l'élastique», «saut en élastique» ou «saut en bungee»/«saut en benjy»/«saut en benji"» l'activité et le saut lui-même. Cependant, dans l'usage, «bungee» (et ses variantes) signifie également «saut en bungee», tant l'activité que le saut.  4, record 6, French, - saut%20%C3%A0%20l%27%C3%A9lastique
