(http://u-turnusa.com FLAT TOP PARAMOTOR) Powered Paragliding expert Dell Schanze pulls off some of the most amazing PPG footage ever recorded. On the U-Turn Morpheus Acro Glider and the Flat Top from RPM, Powered Skydiving founder Dell Schanze sets the standard for what is possible in the industry. A paramotor is a backpack aircraft that is FAR 103 ultralight legal so it doesn't require any license or registration in the US. Paramotoring is the power sport for the 21st century. It is not seasonal like most other power sports, it will go anywhere a dirt bike, ATV, snowmobile or wave runner will go but with the freedom of flight. This amazing pilot throws down one heck of a display to demonstrate the best PPG equipment in the world.

  • imasuper0308, How do I get certified to do tandem flights? I have a 28hp Gold 130 paramotor. What wing would I need to carry a passenger?

  • Hi, I am a Tandem Administrator so I would be the guy to talk to in order to get your tandem rating. Any good tandem glider would work but I would recommend a different motor. Yours has enough power but the high hang points makes it difficult and dangerous for tandem flight. Another guy on a black hawk just died because of that. For tandem flight you do need FAA certified aircraft and right now the Flat Top is the only legit tandem motor unit. Give me a call and I'll be happy to help.

  • @imasuper0308 Thank you for getting back to me. You have the coolest videos. How many hours do you have in the air?

  • Thousands and thousands lol. I'm glad you like the videos, I love showing people how cool this is when you get the right gear and training. Sooo dang fun man, seriously wild. I've flown all sorts of aircraft but nothing compares to your own personal backpack aircraft you can take with you anywhere. It is just seriously slick.

  • In reality, how expensive would this be and how experienced would one have to be to get this up and going?

  • The best equipment on the market is about $11,000 and then you just have to go through the training. It is sooo dang fun!!! You gotta try it. Just give me a call and I'll tell ya the best way to do it. Dell 800-707-2525

  • ok thi svideo is not what i thought it was supposed to be about...i thought it had something to do with the astoria column and a guy named Dell Schanze...hmmmm....was i wrong?

  • Hey Dell, just watched this. The couple of times you blipped the prop I am assuming was hitting the wake. The Morpheus seems to show that much better than the Eris which knifes right through it. Is that right?

  • aki el amigo la Pipa :-)

  • Just give me a call anytime at 800-707-2525. No 215 lbs is no problem at all.  Dell
