We Buy The Best Equipment
We only use the best chutes and harnesses from Custom Chutes. Custom Chutes is the industry’s leading designer and manufacturer of parasailing equipment. Our equipment is tested rigorously and replaced frequently. Read more about parasailing safety.
We Use The Best Boat
Our flagship, the Icarus II, is the newest parasail vessel operating on the Outer Banks. The USCG Certified 12 Passenger Ocean Pro is custom designed for parasailing. It’s the driest and most comfortable parasail boat on the market and the envy of captains everywhere.
We Deliver What We Promise
At Nor’Banks we take pride in what we do and we believe professionalism and honesty are synonymous. Many parasail companies offer 10-12 minute parasail flights while booking 6 flights every hour. That’s more than an hour of flight time with no time for transportation or a safety talk. At Nor’ Banks we book every 1.5 hours to deliver the best parasailing experience in the relaxed environment you seek during your stay on the Outer Banks.
We’ve Got Tons of Industry Experience
Nor’Banks parasailing Captain James Garnett and owner Dan McIsaac have over three decades of combined industry experience. We are committed to providing you with the best memories from your stay on the Outer Banks, and we have plenty of practice!
We Stand Behind Our Service
We want every experience at Nor’ Banks to be great. If there is any reason that your experience with us isn’t one of the best during your stay in The Outer Banks, we will do everything we can to make it right. Just let us know.
We Love What We Do!
We are passionate about our jobs and it shows!
