Powered Paragliding
Paramotoring
is enjoying a surge of popularity in America, and for good reason - it's an aircraft that literally fits into the trunk of your car!
In less than 15 minutes, a pilot can set up for a remarkable new form of flight.
Combine the simple elegance of a modern paraglider with one of the backpack paramotor units and you have the ability to fly when you want and where you want (with consideration for the weather).
The Power Pack
The motor that powers us to dizzying heights is nothing short of remarkable. These lightweight engines have an incredible power to weight ratio, start easily and are fitted onto a backpack that you can easily walk around with.
With one of these motor units, the propeller gives you thrust, allowing you to launch, climb, fly level or glide down through the air on a paraglider at your own will.
These motors are some of the most powerful, yet low maintenance aircraft engines you will find anywhere. They are rugged, reliable and extremely easy to use.
Wings of Change
Today's paragliders are really amazing flying machines! In about five minutes, a trained pilot can set a paraglider out onto a launch site and step into flight that can last for hours, even without power. Add the motor, and now we can fly just about anytime of day!
The first step in becoming a good PPG (Powered Paraglider) pilot is learning how to control the paraglider wing. Mastery of this is paramount to our success as a pilot, since we are flying an aircraft, after all!
Please be realistic about buying paragliders here on Ebay! Paragliding is flying an aircraft, and requires training and certification in order to operate safely.
What is it Like to Fly?
"When once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return."
- Leonardo da Vinci

Learn to fly safely with one of America's top schools, American Paragliding. Chad Bastian has taught hundreds of students from around the world to fly paragliders.

Powered paragliding is perhaps the easiest and safest form of aviation in the world today, one of the most enjoyable sports you will ever experience. Learning to fly a paraglider should only be done under qualified supervision. Perhaps you could learn to pull up a glider you buy here on eBay and fly in perfect conditions in a little wind in a few hours, or fly a little hill. But if you want to safely fly for the long period, you need certified, qualified instruction. Do yourself and the pilots that enjoy this wonderful sport a favor and learn to fly from a professional.
Powered paragliding is an incredibly rewarding and exhilirating, but potentially dangerous sport. Any paraglider equipment should only be used by a USPPA certified PPG2 or above rated pilot. It is unwise to own and/or operate a powered paraglider if you are a beginner unless you are under the direct supervision of a USPPA Certified Instructor. Think of your family, loved ones, yourself - Learn to be safe!
We truly believe that paragliding is the most incredible sport there is. The powered paragliding community is one of the best groups you will ever enjoy the company of. We love what we do and work hard to keep the flying sites open for all to enjoy. Help us preserve the ability to enjoy this sport by being a responsible pilot.
Blue Skies!
