Hi. There was a discrepancy of what he tried to accomplish to advertise and what you did advertise. It would have been nice to have it straighten it out, so, there is no confusions about the deal. I think you should have a link page of clarifications for some deals that is not correctly representing the deal. The instructor explained it to me very thoroughly and I understood, so, it was good for me.

$50.50 for an Introduction to Hang Gliding Ground-School Session ($100 Value)

The four-hour introductory ground-school experience covers the basics of launching and landing a hang glider. Upon arriving at Corvallis Municipal Airport, students get an interactive presentation on the sport followed by hands-on work with a simulator. Next, they’ll practice setup and launches with real equipment as an instructor oversees, and they may lift slightly off the ground depending on weight and weather factors.

We didn't go. Once I realized all this groupon would do is let my husband walk next to a hang glider, it seemed pretty pointless. Maybe I just didn't read accurately, but I was pretty disappointed when I called to schedule. By the time we did the upcharge for actual hang gliding, it was going to be the same as pay full price. So, we just didn't go. I just lost that $49, unfortunately.

Clearly knowledgeable, but very informal experience, and I felt uncomfortable.

The description was VERY mis-leading. It is a starter class for those who want to become hang gliding pilots, not the "ultimate hang gliding experience". It was taught by ONE instructor (not trained instructorS as stated in the description) and you never get close in the air. It is an awkward class room in an airport storage space where the instructor does not have great social skills. Groupon was awesome when my husband and I complained about this coupon and its mis leading discription so we continue to love Groupon and very highly do NOT reccomend this coupon.
