Haha, this guy is like the most enthusiastic, happy go lucky guy. Man, I wish I could be like that. Anyways, are there any other sites besides Oahu where you can catch huge lifts like that?? I've done Makapuu many times, but I was wondering if there were other places around the world I could catch a lift at 100 ft all the way up to 2000 ft.
I may be looking at getting the U-Turn Bodyguard as my first para, what do you think? Got some good reviews and safety featutres. We only have one supplier in the UK, Northern paragliding. Could you explain "Flat top and K2 rule"?
@spadxiii1919 No way, for U-Turn go with the Emotion or Alpine Peak, not the bodyguard. The Flat Top paramotor is the best one on the market, that is absolutely no question the one to get because of the safety, performance and reliability. The K2 is a really good paraglider that I recommend as well.
Hi Super dude, can I ask why you may recommend the U-Turn Body guard over the Emotion. Both seem pretty good with good safety charactersicts, but the Body guard seems more passive, better suited to the novice. please tell me if I am wrong, only I have no experience in this area.
@spadxiii1919 Fun stuff man, just make sure you get quality gear. The Flat Top & K2 rule! If they try to sell you on "reflex" switch to a competent instructor lol. In the UK I offen see them try to push totally uncertified gliders onto beginners so watch out for that one. Feel free to ask if you have any questions. I can save you big time in the long run as I've been doing this quite some time. Have fun and ask questions! Lots of them.
Hey man, I think you need a couple of wereable contour hd cammeras, one in your helmet at least, to keep your hands free. I'm from Iquique - Chile, let me know if some day you are flying here OK?
Yes lol, totally need a better camera setup:). Chile sounds awesome, there are some groups from here that go down there every year. Maybe I'll see ya one of these times.
yea!! it is awesome. People from all the world come here to enjoy paragliding. I'm a beginner, I'm flying just a few months ago. So, hope to see you around and have some advices from you.
Just find a good school that teaches paragliding and get started. Then before you buy any equipment let me know and I'll point you in the right direction to make sure you get the cool stuff:).
I have done lots of hiking and swimming along your Oahu paragliding track. Have often seen paragliders above, and wondered what it would be like. You were obviously having a blast. Thanks for that awesome fun video!
No certification is required legally but you get your skills up to a USHPA P2 level for your own safety it would probably take at least a couple weeks. It is a total blast, once you learn to fly a paraglider you can fly it with the backpack unit or the trike like you see in some of my other videos. 3 sports in one. Seriously fun!!!!
hmmm, dose sound like fun, im from scotland so there is no shortage of of slops to glide from lol, how much dose the glider cost and the other gear that you would need
In ireland to kit out it would cost approx 4,500 euro for all gear... and then maybe 1,700 for lessons...Go foreign to somewhere like spain and do a course for two or three weeks.. its the fastest way. Need decent experience to fly in high winds of scotland i would imagine.
I'll probably end up going to Salt Lake City this summer. I've never tried paragliding, though I really want to. Any suggestions of where to get some experience around Salt Lake City?
I found a place just now that can give ratings around where I live. Google: GreyBird AirSports to see how flat it is here.
Seeing as this is about 15 minutes away from where I live, it is the easiest. And, the weather is in the 70's for the next two or three months, probably a lot like Hawaii. :)
Yes check out my other videos, I'm flying it with the S-Trike!! I also flew it tandem in Hawaii hooking in at about 380 lbs. That thing kicks butt. The medium is the one I've been doing all of this with. I soared no problem in Makapuu while tandem on that thing. It is unbelievable. Not for newbies as it is extremely high performance for the DHV 1-2 catagory. Anything from solo PG to tandem or S-Trike flying. The thing rules.
It depends on your experience. If you are a really new pilot then the Atis II would probably be the best choice between the two. However the Obsession is DHV 1-2 certifed so as long as you have decent skills the performance is really astounding. It also has the new AFS technology which is really cool as it will actually pull brakes for you if you do nothing. Give me a call if you like and I'll talk to you more about the exact differences 801-631-1731.

It depends on your experience. If you are a really new pilot then the Atis II would probably be the best choice between the two. However the Obsession is DHV 1-2 certifed so as long as you have decent skills the performance is really astounding. It also has the new AFS technology which is really cool as it will actually pull brakes for you if you do nothing.
