The van eases off the asphalt and the mountains take over—green walls folding into the sky, a river below like a ribbon daring you to follow. For 90 minutes you move between two great elements: the inland ridges of east Kauai and the Pacific stretching to the horizon. At the launch platforms the wind speaks first; then the harnesses click and you slide, weight borne by a cable while jungle and sea tilt past in brilliant, fast frames.
