I was concerned and intimidated about taking up paragliding, because of my age. Now I know that even though I am a rather old man (67) it's not too late for me. I guess age is a state of mind. Thank you so much for this video. You done "GOOD"!!

Congratulations I am sure you will inspire others to do this. Freedom from the limitations of the body what a wonderful thing.

What a thrill, this should make any wheelchair after a bungee jump.

This is an idea that I've had for years, but everyone thinks I'm insane for thinking it up. I've attached a video that I made to illustrate, called "Kripple Ken". Check it out if it doesn't get approved.

Where is this done? I must try it...

Thank you for sharing this video clip, it's an inspiration. With a castering front wheel, you could take up powered paragliding quite easily I think!

Check out my S-Trike. With the castered front wheel you could easily launch it without having to steer. Watch some of my videos. I think it would be awesome to have you flying one. Any time you come through Utah give me a call and I'll let you try it out. You can freefly it as well. Just watch my videos of it. Dell 800-707-2525
