I'll write about the things I wanted to know in advance!
I went with my middle school daughter to enjoy the 130m deluxe slide. We signed up for the 11 AM pickup. There were six pairs (12 people) along with two staff members on the boat, and off we went! Right after boarding, there was a quick explanation in English, and since we were the only ones who didn’t understand, I felt a bit anxious. However, they showed us a written explanation in Japanese. The two staff members seemed accustomed to Japanese guests and were cheerful, chatting with us in broken Japanese, which made it a lot of fun.
Everyone else on the boat spoke English, so they laughed and chatted happily with the staff. The boat did sway a bit, but since I took motion sickness medicine beforehand and was enjoying the scenery, I was totally fine. We took turns jumping off (we were fourth), and as someone who is a bit afraid of heights, watching was scary! But once I jumped... it was amazing!! Up in the sky, it was quiet, and I really felt relaxed. (Everyone said this.)
When we jumped and came back down, we splashed into the sea, which was also a lot of fun! The drop was slow, so even those who aren’t fond of roller coasters would be fine (it doesn’t feel like your insides are dropping). The water was cool and refreshing, just up to my feet or waist, so there was nothing to be scared of.
I couldn’t tell the difference between 110m and 150m jumps just by looking, as I didn’t understand the English and couldn’t see how high others were jumping. The staff offered a photo service for $30, and everyone seemed to order it. Based on reviews, opinions were mixed, but I thought it was great! The photos included shots of the sea, waiting, jumping, and staff photos. Since they took pictures of all six pairs doing the same movements, I think everyone’s photos looked similar.
Payment is made when you get off the boat. I had no idea how much to tip, so I paid $30 plus $10, totaling $40. I still don’t know if that was good, haha. (Three out of the six pairs paid by card.)
I only brought one phone because I thought it might get wet, but it was totally fine on the boat (nothing got wet), and everyone was taking pictures freely. I was wondering what to do with my wallet and valuables, but it didn’t feel like something to worry about. Everyone just put their bags in the storage under the seats.
After finishing, there was no place to change, but the driver was waiting for us to take us back to our hotel, so we just wiped off a bit and hopped on the trolley in our swimsuits. When we dried off a bit, we put on the dresses or shorts we had brought. The trolley was almost empty, so it was totally fine.
The pickup bus was on time, and even without understanding English, everything went smoothly. Overall, it was a lot of fun! The foreigners who rode with us tried to communicate with gestures, saying things like, “Looks scary!” When my daughter said the seats were hot, one of them offered their towel to put down. The two staff members and the driver were all kind, and it was just wonderful! I definitely want to go again! The parachute design is cool with a pirate theme!
私が事前に知りたかったことを中心に書きます!
中学生の娘と2人で130mのデラックスライドで遊んできました☆
11時にお迎えに来てもらう回に申し込みました。
2人組が6組(12人)とスタッフ2人で船に乗りいざ出発!
乗ってすぐ英語でばーっと説明があり 英語がわからないのは私たちだけだったのでちょっと不安になったけど 日本語で書いてある説明書きを見せてくれました。スタッフの2人は日本人にも慣れているようで陽気で明るく片言の日本語で話しかけてくれたりするので とても楽しかったです。
一緒に船に乗っていた方々はみなさん英語が話せる人たちだったので スタッフの方の話にさらに楽しそうに笑って和気あいあいと話されていましたよ♪
船はもちろん少しは揺れるけど 事前に酔い止めを飲んでいたし 景色を見ていたら全然大丈夫でした。
順番に飛んでいくのですが(私たちは4番目)高所恐怖症気味の私は見てると怖い!でも飛んだら……最高でした!!
空の上は静かで本当にリラックス出来ました♪♪(これみんな言ってました)
飛び上がって行く時や 戻って来る時に海にぽちゃんと落とされたりするのですがそれもとても楽しかったです!ゆーっくり落ちるのでジェットコースターとか苦手な人でも全然大丈夫だと思うし(内臓ひゅーっみたいにはなりません)海に浸かるのも足?腰?くらいまでで冷たくて気持ちいいので怖いとかは全くありませんでした。
高さは 英語がわかんないし 見ただけでは他の人が何m飛んでるのかわからなかったので 110mや150mとの違いはわかりませんでした。
スタッフの人に30ドルで写真を撮ってもらうサービスがあったのですが みなさん頼んでいました。体験談を見ると賛否両論ですが 私は良かったです☆基本的には海の写真 待ってる時の写真 飛び上がる時から飛んでる時の写真 スタッフの写真等です。6組分いつも同じ動きで写真を撮っていたので みんな同じ感じだと思います。
お金は降りる時に払います。チップは幾ら払えば良いのか全く分からなかったので 30ドルプラス10ドルで全部で40ドル払いました。これは今でも良かったのかわからない 笑
(6組中3組はカード払いでした)
携帯やカメラは濡れるかなと思って1コだけしか持って行かなかったけど 船の上では全然平気で(濡れるようなことはない)みんな好き好きに写真を撮っていました。
お財布や貴重品はどうするんだろうと思っていたけど そんなこと心配するような感じではありませんでした。普通にカバンに入れて 座席下の収納にみんな入れている感じです。
終わって船を降りたらどこかで着替えるとかではなく 私たちのホテルの方面は運転士さんがお迎えに来て待っててくれたので そのまま適当に拭いて 水着のままトロリーに乗り ちょっと乾いた頃に着てきたワンピースとかショートパンツを着ました。トロリーは殆ど貸し切り状態だったので それでも全然平気でした。
お迎えのバスも時間通りだし 英語がわからなくても 勝手に進んでいくなんてことはないし 全体を通してとても楽しかったです♬
一緒に乗った外人さんも私たちに
ジェスチャーとかで 怖そうだね とか話そうとしてくれたり 船の座席が熱くて娘が 熱っ!って言ったら 自分の持ってるタオルを 敷いたら良いよって貸してくれたり スタッフの2人も優しかったし 運転士さんも優しかったし めちゃめちゃ良かったです♬
またぜひ行きたいなー!!
パラシュートの柄 バイレーツでカッコいいですよ!

Thoroughly enjoyed our parasailing experience, i was quite nervous about doing it as i'm not great with heights but the guys on the boat really looked after us and made you feel very relaxed and at ease. We went up first, 1200ft line and as soon as we lifted up and away from the boat, any fear that i had disappeared! The views over Waikiki beach and surrounds were spectacular from up in the air, and it was so quiet and peaceful. The 12 minutes went really fast, i didn't want it to end. We got dunked at the end which was so much fun, we also opted for the photos and we got over 50 of them which were hilarious! Overall a fantastic experience, totally worth the purchase price and i highly recommend Veltra Hawaiian Parasail to all!

We participated in a company trip with eight people in the 120m and 150m groups. Although we registered by height, we were able to travel on the same bus and board the cruiser together. We were a bit anxious arriving late due to Hawaii time, but it was amazing!
We went up like on a lift, and then smoothly landed on the boat with just our lower bodies. The scenery and the cruise along the way were delightful, and the photos I took from up in the sky turned out fantastic (since I took them myself). We talked about wanting to do this again next time! Thank you very much!
社員旅行で、120m組、150m組の8人で参加しました。申し込みは高さ毎にしても、同じバスで移動してクルーザーに乗れました。ハワイタイムで来るのが若干遅れてハラハラしましたが、最高でした!

I'm not good with heights! Plus, there was nothing beneath my feet, and the height I chose was a maximum of 180 meters! However, it felt great. The view of Waikiki and Diamond Head spread out below was breathtaking. The sensation of floating up on the updraft was something I had never experienced before.
The splash into the sea at the end was perfectly timed, and even though the crew couldn't speak Japanese and half of the guests were American, I had no problem enjoying myself without speaking English. I definitely recommend going for a higher altitude with a longer flight time.
高いところは苦手!しかも足下にはなにもなく、選んだ高さも最大の180m!
いや、しかし、気持ちよかったです。眼下に広がるワイキキの街とダイヤモンドヘッド。上昇気流に乗ってふわっと浮き上がるような感覚は生まれて初めてでした。
終わり間際の海ポチャも絶妙のさじ加減で、クルーは日本語を話せずゲストも半分アメリカ人でしたが、英語を話せなくてもまったく問題なく楽しめました。
やはりお奨めは滞空時間も長い、高い高度の方ですね。

We participated as a family of three. We took a boat out to sea, and from there, we started parasailing. There were three groups on the boat, including us. We were the first to fly, and since two of us were going together, I thought I would be alone, but surprisingly, we ended up flying together as a group of three. Since there were three of us, the balance was a bit off, and we had to hold onto the rope. However, flying at 180 meters was high, and it was thrilling with amazing views, so it was great. In the end, we were dropped into the sea a little, but that became a memorable experience. We'll definitely do it again next time.
家族3人で参加。沖合までボートで行き、そこからパラの開始。ボートには私たちを含めて3組。一発目から私たち家族が飛ぶことになり、二人で飛ぶんだから、私は一人だなと思ってたらなんと、3人で飛ぶことに。3人だからバランスが悪く、ロープ持ってました。でも180M は高かったけど、スリル満点、景色最高でよかったですよ。最後海に少し落とされましたけど、それも思い出になりました。次回もします。

Six groups, including us, experienced parasailing. Among them, there was one other Japanese group besides us.
The jet took all six groups out to sea. Then, one by one, they pulled up the parachute with the jet. If you go first, you will be on the jet for the duration until the remaining five groups finish. If you go last, you will have to wait for all five groups to finish. Either way, the time spent on the jet remains the same.
The waiting time can be a bit tough, but when you are actually experiencing it, you are enveloped in your own world, quietly enjoying the moment. It was a lot of fun!
In addition to the application fee, I paid $30 for DSLR photography and $20 for tips.
私たちを含め、6組がパラセイリングを体験しました。そのうち日本人は私たちともう一組でした。
6組を乗せ、ジェットは沖へ。
そして順番にジェットで引っ張る形でパラシュートを上げていきます。
一番はじめに体験すればその後はずっと残り5組が終わるまでジェットに揺られます。
一番さいごに体験すれば5組をずっと待ち続けることになります。
どちらにせよジェットに揺られる長さは変わりません。笑
待ち時間は少しきついものがありますが、実際に体験しているときは音も無く静かに自分たちの世界で包まれます。
とても楽しかったです!

After checking in, I was lent a rash guard and received a brief lecture on the beach about my position on the board, how to stand up, and how to use the paddle, before heading straight into the ocean for practice. At first, I was a bit stiff and hesitant to stand up from my knees due to fear, but once I managed to stand, it wasn't as scary anymore. However, when the board rocked with the waves, I braced my feet and lost my balance, falling into the sea! In a panic, I clung to the board and somehow managed to get back on it, but I realized I had let go of the paddle, which was floating about 2 meters away from me.
I was so far away from the instructor and my family that I couldn't even hear them, and I was at a loss without being able to retrieve the paddle. Fortunately, a photographer (who was also on a board and taking pictures nearby) noticed my situation and came back to help me get the paddle, which saved the day. Thank you very much!
When the board rocked with the waves, I learned to keep my knees soft instead of bracing my feet, allowing my whole body to absorb the movement, which helped me avoid falling.
I spent about an hour and a half going back and forth in a relatively calm area from in front of the Royal Hawaiian to near the Moana Surfrider, and just as I was starting to have fun, it was time to finish. For my first experience, it was quite enjoyable. The instructor spoke only in English.
受付後ラッシュガードを貸してもらい、砂浜で簡単なレクチャー(ボードの上の立ち位置、立ち上がり方、パドルの使い方)を受けた後、すぐに海へ入り実践です。最初は恐怖心から膝立ちから立ち上がるまでがぎこちなかったのですが、一度立ち上がってしまえばそれほど怖くなくなります。しかし波でボードが揺れる際に足を踏ん張ってしまったため、体のバランスを崩し海へ落下!無我夢中でボードにしがみつき、なんとかボードの上に上がることが出来ましたが、気が付くとパドルを手放してしまっていて、2Mほど離れたところで浮いているではありませんか。
インストラクターと家族とは声も届かないくらい離れてしまっていて、パドルを取ることも出来ないまま、途方に暮れていましたら、カメラマンの方(自身もボードに乗り近くで写真を撮ってくれる方)がその様子に気づいて、パドルを取りにそばまで戻ってきてくださり、事なきを得ました。ありがとうございました。
ボードが波で揺れた時は、足を踏ん張らずに膝を柔らかくして、身体全体で揺れを吸収するようにしましたら、落ちることも無くなりました。
1時間半ほどロイヤルハワイアンの前から隣のモアナサーフライダーの前の辺りまでの、割と穏やかな場所を何周かして、ようやく楽しくなってきたころに終了。初めてにしては十分楽しく事が出来ました。
インストラクターの方は英語のみでした。

I used this service for my first trip to Hawaii. Although there were no staff members who spoke Japanese, both the shuttle staff and the onboard staff were friendly and welcomed us warmly. There was also a Japanese manual before boarding the boat, which made me feel at ease for the departure. During parasailing, they kept the atmosphere lively, and I was very satisfied and had a great time. However, the only disappointing thing was that the car finally arrived 15 minutes past the initial pickup time. Since I was anxious being in a foreign country, I think it would be reassuring if they could somehow improve that aspect, and I would feel comfortable using the service again.

About 7 to 8 years ago, I participated in surfing lessons here. It was my first time, but I managed to ride the waves a few times and had so much fun that I decided to join again. This time, I successfully rode all the waves! Yay! The staff were incredibly helpful, and I realized once again that this school is the best. They give you a little push at the moment you catch the wave, which makes you feel like you've really "caught it!" After that, all you need to do is stand up calmly, and you're good to go! Riding the waves was a success. Of course, paddling is tough, but my sister, who joined me, is also a woman in her late 40s. If you have the motivation, you can definitely do it, so I highly encourage everyone to give it a try. Surfing in Hawaii is the best memory for a trip!
By the way, I also tried surfing on the Gold Coast, but I couldn't ride a single wave. I wonder if the waves in Hawaii are better or if the staff are just that good, as it felt surprisingly easy to stand up.
I was a bit worried after seeing some comments saying the service was "neglected," thinking, "Was it really great 7 to 8 years ago but has changed?" However, that was not the case at all. The staff were truly amazing, encouraging me with wonderful smiles and providing strong support. Even when I was paddling hard but not making progress or couldn't go in the direction I wanted, they offered solid support.
In the end, I wanted to take a photo with the staff who took care of me the most, but I missed the chance, which was disappointing. They were busy cleaning up, and I felt bad interrupting them. It's impressive that they clean up after the lesson too; they are truly powerful staff! If I go to Hawaii again, I will definitely participate in the lessons. By then, I might be over 50... (laughs)
7~8年前にも、ここのサーフィンレッスンに参加しました。
その時初めてだったのですが、何度か波乗りに成功し楽しかったので、また参加しました。

(ちなみにゴールドコーストでもサーフィンに挑戦しましたが1度も乗れませんでした。ハワイは波が良いのか、スタッフが良いのか不思議と簡単に立てます)
時々、書き込みで「放ったらかし」とあったので、「7~8年前は凄く良かったけど変わってしまったのかな?」と心配していましたが、全然そんなことなく、素敵な笑顔で励ましてくれたり、力強く助けて下さったり、本当に最高のスタッフでした。一生懸命パドルしてるけど力不足で進まない、行きたい方向に行けないなんて時にはしっかりサポートしてくれます。
最後に一番面倒を見てくれたスタッフと写真を撮りたかったのですが、取り損ねて残念。後片付けを一生懸命されてるので声をかけるのが申し訳なくて。あのレッスンの後に後片付けもなんて、本当にパワフルなスタッフです!
またハワイに行ったら、絶対レッスンに参加します。その時、私50歳超えかもですが。。。(笑)

It was after a once-in-a-decade hurricane hit Hawaii, so I was worried about the strong winds and whether my 8-year-old could participate. However, the weather was great on the day of the event, and we were able to enjoy the wonderful scenery. My child was thrilled and said, "It was the best!" For $30, we got a lot of photos, which were given to us on an SD card right there. Since I can't take photos like that myself, it was a bit pricey, but I'm glad I asked for it.

The 120 meters was higher than I expected, and the strong winds made it very frightening. I thought it might have been too much for my 6-year-old daughter, and I considered canceling the parasailing we had booked for the backup day. However, despite being scared, she surprisingly enjoyed it the second time during our stay.

The final splash in the sea was nice, as it only reached my shins.
I declined the $30 photo shoot and asked a Japanese person to take pictures with my digital camera.
The boat rocked quite a bit, so it might be a good idea to take motion sickness medication.

The staff were unique and explained things clearly, even with their broken Japanese, which was great. The wind felt nice, and I was very satisfied.
青い空に飛び、青い海を眼下に、最高の気分でした。
高所恐怖症で不安を抱えていた旦那が、「またやりたい!」と大絶賛。
スタッフの方もユニークで、片言の日本語ながらわかりやすく説明してくれたので、よかったです。
風が気持ちよく、大満足でした。

I participated with three friends, and we were debating who should go alone, but they let all three of us take off into the sky together☆
The view was amazing, and it felt really great☆彡
The usual "butt drop" was also very enjoyable(^^)
友人三人で参加して誰を一人にするか悩んでいたのですが、三人で一緒に空へ飛び立たせてくれました☆
眺めも最高でめっちゃ気持ち良かったです☆彡
お決まりのお尻ドボンも気持ち良かったです(^^)

I participated with my boyfriend and four friends. It was my first time paragliding, and it was amazing to soar over the beautiful ocean in Hawaii (^o^) When I was making the reservation, I was really torn about which height to choose, and I decided to go for the challenging 120 meters. However, when I actually flew, I thought there wasn't much difference between 120 meters and 80 meters. But my friends, who were watching from the boat, said it was completely different! (laughs) The male tour guides were very enthusiastic and fun, even playfully dropping us into the sea before we took off, which added to the excitement. We also requested photos for $30 for the four of us, and they took beautiful, clear pictures that we couldn't have captured with our smartphones, so we were very satisfied. The tour ended in an hour and a half, and having transportation included made it easy to plan our next activities.
彼と友達夫婦4人で参加しました。
パラセーリングは初めてでしたが、ハワイの綺麗な海の上を悠々と飛べて最高でした(^o^)
申込みの時は何mにするか迷いに迷って、ちょっとチャレンジの120mにしました。実際飛んでみると、120mも80mもあまり違いはないのでは?と思いましたが、船から見ていた友達は全然違った!と言っていました(笑)
ツアーガイドの男性達もサービス精神?旺盛で、飛ぶ前に海に落とされたりキャーキャー楽しく、盛り上がりました。
写真も4人で30$でお願いしましたが、スマホでは撮れない美しく鮮明な写真を撮って頂き満足でした。
一時間半で終わって、送迎付きなのも後の予定が組みやすく良かったです。

Since I was in Hawaii, enjoying the beautiful tropical sea, I decided to try the classic activity of parasailing! I went for the extreme ride at 150 meters! It was thrilling when we were deliberately dropped into the sea as we left the boat! The vast blue ocean and the distant view of Honolulu were breathtaking, making me feel at ease despite the height. I highly recommend this experience if you visit a southern island.
However, I was disappointed that the photo service provided by the staff did not include the pictures I was hoping for on the CD-R we received at the end.
せっかくのハワイ、せっかくの常夏の海だから、定番のアクティビティ・パラセーリングに挑戦しました!
どうせなら、と言うことで150メートルのエキストリームライドにアタック!
ボートから離れるときは、わざと海に落とされたりとすごくスリリング!
広く蒼い海と、遠くに見えるホノルルの町並に感動して高さを感じない気持ちよさがありました。
南の島に来たのなら是非体験して欲しいです
ただ、スタッフによるフォトサービス、最後にいただいたCD-Rには、期待していた写真が記録されてなくて残念です。

My 7-year-old daughter was really excited to get on the boat, but once we headed out to sea, she got scared and didn't want to jump. However, with the instructor's kind support, she was able to jump and it seemed like she really enjoyed it, saying she wants to go again. So, we plan to jump again next time!
7歳の娘が船に乗るまではノリノリだったのに実際に沖へ出ると怖がって飛ぶのを嫌がってたんですが、インストラクターの優しいサポートで飛ぶことができ、相当気持ちが良かったらしくまた行きたいと言ってました。
なので次回もまた飛びたいと思います!

I had a little free time, so I signed up on-site. It was easy to participate with free transportation to the hotel, and the weather was nice, but the view from the ocean off Waikiki Beach was absolutely stunning. During the ride, I was told about delicious restaurants and had some interesting conversations, which made it a lot of fun.
ちょっとした空き時間が出来たので、現地で、申し込みしました。
ホテルまで、無料送迎付きで、手軽に、参加出来たのに、天気良かったのもありますが、ワイキキビーチ沖、海の上からの絶景最高でした。
送迎中、美味しいお店など、教えてもらったり、面白いおしゃべりしてもらったりで、楽しかったです。

I was anxious because I couldn't speak English, but the person explaining things was able to communicate in Japanese, so I was able to understand everything without any issues. After that, we headed straight to the beach! The lesson was right in front of us on the beach! Although the lesson was in English, it was fine with gestures! They quickly taught me the tips to stand up, and I was able to ride the waves multiple times. They even took photos of me riding the waves, which became the best memories! I highly recommend it!
英語喋れなくて、不安だったんですが、説明してくれる方は、日本語OKだったので、問題なく説明終えれました。
その後、早速、海へ!
歩いてすぐ前のビーチでのレッスン!
レッスンは、英語だったんですが、見ぶり手振りでOK!
直ぐに立てるコツ教えてもらえて、何度も、波に乗れました。
波に乗ってる写真も撮ってくれていて、最高の思い出になりました!
オススメします
Aloha!
The staff is gradually learning Japanese and enjoying time with the customers.
We are all happy to create good memories.
Until we meet again, aloha!
アロハ!
スタッフも だんだんと 日本語を覚えてきて お客様と楽しんでいます。

Due to a pickup trouble from another parasailing experience, we were an hour late and participated with my 14-year-old son. He was satisfied as he was able to stand up and ride the waves early on. Since we were an hour late, I think we only had about an hour left for the lesson, but after the other participants left, it turned into almost a private lesson, and we were able to enjoy an extended time. Thank you to the Japanese staff member, Aiko? (I hope I’m not mistaken ^_^) for handling the pickup trouble. I definitely recommend this tour. As for me, I had to give up after 30 minutes due to a recurrence of back pain! (It was because of the hotel’s too soft bed! Just an excuse ^_^;) It's a shame I don't have any photos.
別のパラセーリングの体験談に投稿させていただいたピックアップのトラブルで、1時間遅れで、14歳の長男と参加。長男は、早々に立って波に乗ることができて満足そうでした。1時間遅れだったので、本当はレッスン時間あと1時間ぐらいしかなかったと思いますが、他のレッスンの皆さんが帰ったあとも、ほぼプライベートレッスン状態で、時間延長で楽しませていただきました。日本人スタッフのアイコさん?(だったかな。間違えてたらすみません^_^)ピックアップのトラブルから対応ありがとうございました。ぜひ、オススメのツアーです。最後に、私は?というと、腰痛再発のため、30分でgive up!(ホテルの柔らかすぎるベッドのせいだぁ!言い訳でした^_^;)写真がないのが残念。
