@SloanZurnToto The engines are super reliable but with a single engine you shouldn't exactly fly to Hawaii. If you go in the water the Flat Top floats and has a quick release harness but you might want to at least be close to shore. The Flat Top set the world speed record at 50mph. It freaking rips. Just look up fastest paramotor in the world.
@SH1974 No 4 strokes are way too heavy and don't have the power to weight ratio so they end up making more noise. The best is still a 2 stroke like you see in this video.
@SillySweetPea1969 There is no ground affect as the speeds are too slow and the wing is 20 ft above you. It is just a really efficient wing and the Flat Top is a very quiet paramotor.
@175myles Best gear is about $12,000. Cheapest gear is down to $4900. U-Turn USA carries everything both new & used and can explain in detail all the differences. No license is required of any sort and there are only 2 rules that really apply to these that are stupid simple.
@wildcatz123 Flying low is the funnest part of flying. Up high you don't get the feeling of movement like you do down low with objects rushing past you. We can fly up over 18,000 ft but flying low is the funnest thing on earth:).
I would like to free fly and use a motor go get me up, learned to fly from dixon in washington in the mid 90's but now live in wisconsin. Is it because of reduced wing loading that guys don't want to fly mid day on most days? Is there anything that can be done to fly mid day in good lift safely? If not why can I tow up mid day but not paramotor up there? I understand towing increases wing loading where paramotor decreases due to pendilum is that the key? center of gravity is the problem?
@buzzy1147 Yes of course you can fly a paramotor mid day. You probably heard some false information from the usppa scam or something. It's a group of self taught yohos who made up fake certifications and pretend to be instructors. They suck so badly if they flew in thermals they would wet themselves. Yes paragliders are specifically designed to be flown mid day in thermic conditions. You just want to make sure you have the right skills & equipment for it. Call 800-707-2525
i was wondering.. i am 15 and since you said you don't need a license.. and if i got training on how to maneuver during flight, would i be able to fly one of these? thanks looks like crazy fun
@XxpaintballgeekxX Yes my son flies and he is only 10. My daughter is 14 and she flies as well. It is a total blast for all ages as long as you weigh at least about 80 lbs.
@imasuper0308 Hey man get a neck warmer ...lol Im thinking of getting into it. Get ahold of 12k n call U-turn huh? or test fight first. im already into two line stunt n four line traction and stunt kites and live in orlando area.
@jim28fl Yes in winter I used a turtleneck I pull up and a ski mask I pull down over it. Works awesome:). U-Turn carries all the major brands and has both new & used gear so you can get really good certified equipment for as little as about $6000. So you don't have to start with $12,000 but for that price you get the absolute best and brand new. If you are into kites already it will really give you a big advantage. Just call anytime at 800-707-2525.
i like how its really close to the ground its fast safe and can travel in any kind of terrain how much would one of these cost and where would you buy one?!
@N000BPWN3RZ I added a link to the website in the description. The best paramotoring gear in the world like the Flat Top in this video is between $10,000-$12,000. Cheap stuff can be had for less but then the safety goes down drastically. Just talk to the guys at U-Turn USA as they are the best in the world.
A few Questions for you. What is the cost of a set up like yours? How far can you travel on a tank of gas? How fast do these go? And where can I buy one and get training? Im in Utah and I think you are as well.
Can you use your hands freely while in flight? More specifically, would it be easy to take a nice camera up with you and take aerial photography, or do both of your hands need to stay on the steering lines?
I've got a few videos flying hands free! We use cameras mounted to our helmet, or on the machine it's self to take photos as well. Come flying with us!
@robbycupcakes SUPER training takes just over a week to be totally rocking. Yes you can fly tandem no problem as a Flat Top Ninja for example can carry over 500 lbs no problem at all. Zero people have ever died on Flat Tops and only 1 person has ever been injured on WPPGA certified equipment and that was a Red Bull pilot doing some insane stuff. So yes it is the safest action sport I've ever seen. Sooo dang fun!!!
@joolat The dislikes are from those selling other products as they know they have no chance to compete against the Flat Top and it makes them mad. Especially now since the new engine that just came out that blows everything else away is exclusively distributed by U-Turn and U-Turn only. Nothing else can even come close to the power, lightweight and safety of the Flat Top. That's why you see all the best pilots in the world flying them.
In the 60's, we used to take an old pair of skiis, cut the first two feet off the tips,and mount the bindings on these "shorties" as we called 'em. Turn on a dime, on a mogally downhill run. All you need are a pair of "shortie" skiis.
you just keep doing it you bastard i am trying to sell my boat and canoe to get the money to gether to buy one of these things and you just keep making it more painfull i hope i am half the pilot you are one day ??
@ThePopypete lol dude it is soooo feaking fun you can't even imagine the half of it. Let me know when you are ready to fly and I'll get you totally rocking. It is freaking awesome!!! The videos don't come close to doing it justice. It is way better than what you see.
I have just ordered a flat top 120 Dell, here in Ireland. I'm sure it will live up to all the videos i have been watching,, i'm completely new to the sport, so i hope it will take a knock or two,, cheers,, and get it shipped out asap please
Awesome footage - thanks! Please tell me what camera you're using on the skis - it's really good quality so would like to get one for my own paramotoring. Cheers
Hey what an amazing thing you do. You just won me. I'm snowkiting three winters and always was dreaming about ultralight plain. But expensive license and price for the ultralight plain always stopped me. I see two things in one in what you are doing. Flying + you use para-glider. Thanks for your video.
That's the Charlie No Limits helmet I carry. Pretty cool huh? Sooo much lighter than the snowmobile helmet. Can't tell ya got it on. Yes that was the Eris III RS 22sm. Very slick!
If I lived in Russia... This would be my way to get around :D
