If, in ideal wind conditions, a paraglider can support (or has a weight limit of) 120kg (265lbs) and all of your gear comes to 40kg (88lbs), then the passenger and pilot weight combined cannot exceed 80kg (176lbs).
Powered paragliders are for single person flight, are considered ultralight vehicles by the FAA, and do not require a pilot license. There are wheel kits available for powered paragliders, so that you can sit & fly.
The USPHA sets standards for paragliding and provides training resources for pilots. To become certified, pilots must complete an approved training program and pass a proficiency exam. The USPHA also offers ratings for paragliders, which indicate the pilot's level of experience and expertise.
Is there a weight limit? Tandem passengers must be under 220 LBS. A hang glider's flight characteristics are impacted by how much weight they are carrying. As weight is added to a glider it needs more airspeed to maintain controlled flight.
A well taken care of hang glider can last up to 20 years. Harnesses, when treated well, will last your entire flying career.

Almost anyone can fly a hang glider. If someone can jog while balancing a 50 \u2013 70 lb. weight on their shoulders they can learn to fly.
How long does a paraglider last? General wear and tear (especially the latter) and deterioration from exposure to ultra-violet usually limit the useful lifetime of a canopy to somewhere in the region of 200 to 300 hours of airtime. This obviously depends strongly on use.
In the United States, there are no federal laws that set an age requirement for hang gliding. However, many states have their own regulations, and most companies that offer hang gliding tours will have a minimum age limit of around 16 or 18 years old. Some allow passengers as young as 10.
Is there a weight limit? Tandem passengers must be under 220 LBS. A hang glider's flight characteristics are impacted by how much weight they are carrying. As weight is added to a glider it needs more airspeed to maintain controlled flight.
Hang gliding tandems work a little differently, so typically passengers are restricted to 175 lbs (80 kgs, 12 stone) or less. It's generally a good idea to call before coming down and ask if it's flyable and if so, what the recommendation is for passenger weight.
