10 The Barrie Examiner Fern Campbell left and Lillian Gracey members of the Ladies Curling Section of the Barrie Curling Club Monday December 20 1976 try samples of cheese at the recent annual wine and cheese party for the group Examiner photo Hanggliding popular in Japan with some TOKYO lReuterl Hang gliding is soaring in popularity in Japan But the general public is not enthusiastic linking the sport with another modern phenome non the bosuzoku motorcycle gangsL Some of hangglidings da redevil enthusiastic anger citilt zens of this densely populated land by crashing into rice fields houses and cars They are also risking their ownlives Koichi Hatano of the Japan Hanggliders Association said that unless the new sport was properly controlled its en thusiasts would gain as bad reputation as the bosuzoku The hanggliders association started in June 1975 with six clubs and 50 members Six months later there were 50 clubs with 1000 members Today 3500 Japanese regu larly strap on kitlike hang glider harnesses to experience the thrill of soaring like birds in the sky In three to five years Hatano predicted there will be 200 000the same number of fliers as there are now in the United States country with 25 times thespace NO LICENCE NEEDED Twothirds of Japans land area consists of thickly wooded mountains mostly unsuitable for hanggliding The rest is heavily populated and criss crossed with power Iines and railway and highway networks No licence is required to fly hangglider But Hatono said his association is voluntarily working out set of regulations to govern the sport in cooper ation with the police and trans port ministry The major impetus to hang gliding here came trom dem onstration flight in July 1974 by American professional Mike Harker He flew from the top of Mount Fuji Japans highest peak The standard type of triangleshaped kite was originally developed by Dr Francis Rogallo researcher at the US National Aeronautics and Space Ad ministration in 1951 as an ap paratus to replace parachute It was applied in the early 19605 to the presentstyle skysport small Japanese sports goods manufacturer began to make kits in November 1974 under licence agreement with Harker USES SKI RESORT The first training session was held in March of last year at Mount Aso on Japans main southern island onyishu Hatano who owns ski resort in central Japan hit on the idea of using it in the offseason for hanggliding At his initiative the first national competition was staged there in October 1975 An eightman Japanese team was sent to the worlds first hanggliding championships in Kossen Austria last Septem ber Hatano gives several reasons for the growing appeal of hang gliding in Japan It enables humans to fly free like bird relatively easily and cheaply compared with skidive ing gliding or ballooning In such wellcontrolled society as Japan it satisfies the urge for thrilling leisure pur suits as regue from the con cerns of urban life WANTADS
