Buying yourself or friends balloon rides is a good and direct way of finding out about the sport. On your experience ask if you can help with both the inflation and deflation of the balloon to add to your experience. There are many different companies available that offer balloon rides, most flights last around about an hour but the entire experience may take up to four hours.

If there are local air balloon pilots in your area then they are usually good to ask about crewing. Most pilots are happy to accept new people.
