This course is part of the Water Sports Industry Association’s commitment to continuous improvement and your professional development.  The content draws from the expertise of industry leaders serving as volunteers on the WSIA Parasail Committee. It also includes commercial parasailing standards developed by the United States Coast Guard and the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM).

The topics covered by WSIA seminars and webinars are intended to raise awareness of the standards, issues, hazards, and exposures associated with the parasailing industry.

However, it is impossible to treat any subject exhaustively, nor is it  WSIA's intent to do so. No representations or warranties are made regarding the thoroughness or accuracy of the information in courses, seminars, webinars, or any part of them. Nothing in this information should be interpreted as providing definitive guidance on any question relating to parasailing operations. 

WSIA does not tell its members how to run their businesses or require that operations follow any particular format. It also does not represent or warranty the work product or content of any information or reports it provides, including information on its website. 


WSIA’s Parasail Training Course was designed for you to apply the content to your hands-on training and experience. The goal is to increase your knowledge in essential parasailing operation areas like equipment, safety, and weather, all of which improve the overall customer experience.
