The Florida Ridge is a Membership Flight Park, and anyone can join.
With a membership you will receive privileges and benefits
that make hang gliding more enjoyable, convenient, and economical. And
whatever you're doing at the Ridge - soaring among the clouds,
relaxing in the sun, or practicing your golf swing - our ground crew and office staff
will strive to give you the service you deserve as a hang gliding pilot.

Put some steaks and shrimps on the barbie, drive some golf balls,
jog or hike, fly your RC, surf the Web,
roast marshmallows on the campire under a star filled sky... or just relax.
There's a lot more at the Florida Ridge than just air sports!
